Ported and Polished head with complete valvetrain, shaved deck (going on next week)

Thanks
I got an air-freshener from autozone... I put it on the butt-dyno after I installed it and I think I got like 5hp outta it. Wicked fast. lol

Nope...fits like a glove

On a side note, these next 2 weeks will be a major change for me. More on that when I'm done.

i've done basically free mods for now, because bills are freakin expensive!! anyways, i painted my engine covers, fuse box, and intake to match the car... and just debadged the beotch... looks so much cleaner in the back now, i love it. i'm planning on eventually doing i/h/e, springs, maybe tint... possibly a turbo or supercharger when they come out and are found to be reliable...

Just bought it two days ago.

Engine:
Removed all the crappy plastic

Coming soon:
Tint
Stereo
Intake
Full Exhaust
50 shot dry & call it a day

Everything will be done when I get the money to buy a spare part to make a run if I have to get warranty work done. For example. If I have a o2 sensor. I would slap the factory exhaust and manifold back on.

Oh don't forget to add the dyno tune with a laptop. Getting it done for $50 plus dyno costs.

honestly I think it's safe. Our computers can add enough fuel to make up for a dry 50 shot.

Only thing is, I'd make it a wet 50 shot or maybe even a wet 75 shot just for safety and reliability issues.

Why? It will be tuned on the dyno, and I have a guy who will be tuning my A/F ratio while its on the dyno so it stays in a safe range. Not going to hook it up and run untuned. That is just crazy.
