You missed something, upgraded oil cap.

 

[hotrodssnova]

You're gonna have to share more info about the "kick ass" air freshener.
Looks like you have a nice solid foundation. One thing you will need is some nice weather.

[money42211]

Looks good to me .Souns like a good build.

 

[clipto]

Upgrade your your springs and for god sake get better cams then those cheap bc 272. Maybe set of gsc s2 will give you power for your hx40.

are the bc 272s that bad? I understand I am no where nerar op's goals, but I didn't think they were crap.

 

[Afizzle]

Get em if you want but I can garentee you can make more power with any other cam and be worth your money spent.

 

[gst96spyderman]

Well I already got em. Came with the car. I am only looking for 300-350 fwhp () on this build. I just didn't know that they were considered cheap or not great quality camshafts...

Elaborate on where you found this, I can't find it on either site!

they came with the car when i picked it up. I will be getting a curt brown pnp head after this coming racing season with some better cams as i want to bring the rpms up some and will do the new springs and retainers at the same time

wow nice build man

how much $ invested if you dont mind me asking
this is the route i plan on going as well

total including buying the car was about 7-8 thousand.

company that made the air freshener she said she got it thru jegs for free when she bought me some car parts for my birthday. dont know if they actually sell them or if it was a promo item though.

I was told it only needed a 16g and a tune to be a 11 sec car.

found out as i started tearing into it i was totally fed a line of crap about the car and it was a rolling pos.

so without wasting any time i decided what the car needed and that was new everything because i didnt know what he had screwed up in his build.

step 1

[clipto]

Good setup your more then good on making 350whp. I made that on a stock 7 bolt auto fwd with evo 3 16g and e85. It will be easy enjoy the power.
