How it's supposed to be done.
They're all 17 years old and know everything.
BTW, hopefully the machine shop finishes everything up soon. Can't wait to see this beast out there tearing it up...
Dude, these 17 year olds don't need google. They know the answers already.

happens just about everytime man. Machinest are some of the coolest people in the world, at least I think. It's simply amazing the **** they can do to your head. But good lord, they sure can take FOREVER to get something done. It'll be worth it though in the end.
Can't wait to hear your results.

I can guarantee it. 40-50whp isn't hard to gain with a decent port job and a good tuner. I wouldn't be surprised to see Bryan squeeze a bit more though given his tuning expertise.

it was studded. found the problems after the car wouldn't fire. combustion burns evident on the pistons. it had fuel and spark. timing was right. when the head is warped, and nothing seals. it won't run.



We'll have a new member to the 400whp club I'm sure!
