After all your input, this is what I think I will end up doing...
No Turbo for me at all. thinking Stock Pistons now, 10.5:1 Stock Rods Stock Crank (balanced and micropolished) Simple Hone on Cylinder Walls (no boring) Stock Rod/Main Bearings ...(open to suggestions) Metal Head Gasket Port/Polish Cyl-Head (not extreme) Mild, if at all now; shaving of the cyl-head for more compression Webcams Ebay Header (Will prepare it as posted on prior forums) New Aeroturbine Exhaust (tested and personal choice) 2.5" Piping AFC NEO for A/F tuning after build. Same Injen SRI My list is now complete, thanks for all the help guys! This post has been edited by 6G96GT: Apr 12, 2008 - 3:38 PM |

Head Work: Focus on combustion chamber work (as I was informed) and what else for the porting/polishing?
I realize if I do shave the head down a little, I need cam gears? Webcams (294 Grind) - Why did Jim Snoodgrass only do the Intake Cam 294 and leave the exhaust cam stock? Is that good? I know I also have to get a spring kit for the webcam(s). Do I need to reshim the valves or anything? The AFC...just plug and tune? After the head work, will an Ebay header still be effective or shoud I just port my stock one and call it good? Need the technical stuff now guys  Thanks! I'll be pulling the head next weekend if the weather's good. Then I'll probably end up buying webcams and then shipping my core off after.
