That's an excellent idea. After taking your pictures, don't be afraid to tell them that the pistons need to be replaced as well - if they're scored to living hell.
The common number that I've seen is 8500rpm. I've heard of few that rev to 9000rpm at the track. Either way, I hope you'll have a girdle if you decide to go the 2.3 route.
If you're buying an intake manifold, you should buy something from Magnus or AMS. Something that is known throughout the community to make solid numbers. A lot of R&D went into the two that I named and they're proven. So they cost a few hundred more on average - you're getting a quality piece.
I've been looking for a beehive kit, and until now a dual setup was the only way to go. Not anymore. I'd like to know more information about it before I go rushing to buy a kit.http://www.kigglyracing.com/parts/
I don't understand what you mean by this. The lifters (aka lash adjusters) look alike, however they are manufactured by two different companies, hence the Topline and ITM branding. I'm questioning the longevity, quality, and performance issues that might be different or the same between the...
I've been researching revised lifters (3g) and see a difference in pricing between two brands. These two differing brands are Topline (extremepsi, slowboy) and ITM (ebay, partsdinosaur). The prices for the Toplines are around $150, while ITM would run about $85. Everyone is looking for a...
Reference the picture for this please:YELLOW: Those holes should match up with the OEM holes. Mine does not. They are spaced too far apart (both are about 1/8" to 3/16" off).GREEN: These holes are to attach this frame to the OEM frame.RED: I would need to cut the OEM frame (that...
I called ExtremePSI. Customer service rep opened a box and it was the same thing. There are clips that hold the bottom of the OEM frame in and you fasten the frame with the two top screws. The one I have and ExtremePSI's are the same.Who has something that is a DIRECT REPLACEMENT for the...
I bought a gauge holder for a 2g over the internet to hold two gauges right infront of me, on the lower corners of the instrument panel. The frame has 4 holes to fasten it to the OEM frame with screws going threw each of the holes. I don't believe that it is an Autometer frame.I was...
It really depends how much material was removed when the head was decked. Only you or a machinist inspecting the head would be able to find out what you have to work with. Normally people use this formula:.000 decked on block + .000 decked on head = .000 combined + .000 thickness of OEM HG...
If you want a turbo that's capable of that sort of power, go to Precision. They have great products, warranty their stuff, and you'll only spend a hundred or so more (look for their deals). I can't tell you how pleased I am with their stuff.
