very nice.

I still have no clue what I want to do with mine..

Do you have a built bottom end or still stock?

 

To start I say start with the exhaust. After seeing my brothers, the GTO's exhaust are not to best for air flow. From there heads, cam, and a power adder. Then you can work around it to fine tune to way the car breathes.

 

The block is 100% stock... whats funny is that it's the only part of the engine thats not giving me fits (knock on wood).

I was thinking...

Exhaust

Heads

Cam and Procharger..

You think thats a good combo? :D

 

Yeah, thats a great combo... and its a lot less likely to hurt the block. Ask Anthony specifics about that set-up (cam size, etc). He could tell you everything you need to know.

 

So you would need....

push rods

valve springs

retainers

oil pump

timing chain

heads

various gaskets

ARP bolts

cat back (possibly long tubes as well)

FI cam

bigger injectors

racetronix fuel pump kit...

Good tune (I'm pulling from memory so I may be missing a few things)

 

After that you could get the intake manifold, throttle body, and have one hell of a car on your hands.

 

Edit: The hard part is trying to decide if you want to get the manifold and TB before doing other mods.... if anything I say port them for cheap them upgrade them later.

You fuckers need to take this to PMs before I own you all.

 

John, go buy my block and crank :)

 

Shit im not trying to go with a FULL build yet hah.

 

 

But ya the combo I posted would require a hell of a lot of little things to make it all work.

$$ doh.
