as i initially said, unless you're planning boost for the motor, then dont bother. Swap motors.

this lol

I did a head gasket on one of those motors in a cavi. Not a bad motor to work on, but i'd expect it just to be a low speed chugger, not a high rpm or high power motor.

I have a pacesetter from a 2.2 OHV cavi I pulled from the junkyard one day though

the ln2 is very weak.....stock that is, these motors have proven themselves to alot of cavy guys. I've seen ls6 valve spring swap, or was it lifters....i forget, but still with money can be nasty, but why lol
