Should I???
Name: 20150814_232656_zps5marykyh.jpg Views: 119 Size: 557.3 KB

I'm back home and I have this kit sitting here so should I throw a small shot on my car or what? I'm just curious to what you all think

On stock engine very questionable! I'm adding some more parts this spring but I know the LNF head lacks flow so I think I need all the powa I can get. I can make it safe air fuel or knock wise with a special meth setup I have but will a stock bottom end handle it??

There's only 1 way to find out!!

You dont have thr ported head on yet do you? If do i say no, because you risk ruining it. Do you really wanna turn your block into swiss cheese? Lol youre already asking a lot of the stock sleeves.

Ya I have the ported head on it, if it gets hurt I'll port another one no big deal I have one sitting in my garage. I also have 2 LSJ heads I'm gonna do so why not try a 35?

I plan on renting some dyno time and that is one thing I'm gonna look at. But why not spend $150 and have a small shot if i wanted too?
