Default Several Questions......

Did you dyno your car before and are you going to do it after to see check the gains?

Are you getting a custom tuned ECU to adjust for the added fuel needs?

Are you you doing any other mods while it's apart..cams, headers, etc?

Default Re: more answers

I couldn't dyno the car before taking it in...I will take it right to the dyno after it's done. The ECU will be tuned to account for the extra air flow and no cams, see my other reply about the cams. And I am doing Down pipes and trying to get comptech to do something about making the clutch lighter.

It would be interesting to see what a lightened flywheel would do for our cars.

why not upgrade the rods to forged ones while you're in there?

They had to remove the engine block to remove the heads?

Default yes..it could POSSIBLY be done with the engine in...

but the time it takes to work in the tight space would be the same as just dropping it and working on the engine right there...
