I could only find one for sale anywhere currently and you would still need to source a shorter snout for it. Plus you need an IM adapter and TB adapter made for the balts.
Regaurdless, good luck. It would be awesome to see another one.

I got a brfpr and I still have a ton of room on 60s with my 2.8 tvs setup stock head stock block. I think my idc is 64% down from 89% without the brfpr.

And as said above. add pistons to build and rest looks stout.

If I were to do it over I would port the head and spray and that will get you to your goals. A TVS setup is expensive!

you need to pull it to get the bores checked for out of round and taper

why cut my own sprocket nubs? dont they come with the full timing set?
no because your cutting the nubs off the stock balance shafts

they don't work that well

oh, right i have read some about that before. now as far as me sticking with the m62 for now, my boost SHOULD go down with the ported head so i shouldnt need to worry about this until i go tvs/mp90

Do your head, Pistons, keep 2.8, E85, 150 shot and thank me later. If I could go back and do it over I would have done a m62/N20 build rather than TVS

Cams will significantly lower boost as well. Plus they make more power throughout the powerband Ive got the dyno proof!

mp90 is not a direct bolt on you need a different snout and an adapter plate

Honestly man, I wouldnt borrow money to do a build. Save up what you think you will need, then add 50% problems happen and you want a cash reserve to fix them. ask me why I know.

Yep, buy blue's cams, 574's springs, stock valves, save money and be happy. Stock motor isnt even trying at 300whp. I know you are planning for the future, but it really sounds like most of your noises can be addressed in the chain/guides/fasteners department.

I'll be getting my stock motor with ported head and zzp S2 cams out tonight to put in my other car and should be in that 300whp on the ol M62 in my daily/winter car
