2v, sorry man I didn't have it clarified.

The 2006 part threw me off. I was hoping it was a 3 valve. I can't believe more people don't see it as an option.

Sounds like a stout combo! Should make a fun ride when it's all together. Any expectations/ goals you're aiming for as far as HP or torque?

Gonna be watching this one!

You got E85 available in your area?

Thank you my friend, I'm definitely expecting over 300rwhp. With 300 RWHP and the weight of my car at 3290 with me in it, should make a decent little combo on the street. Thanks for your kind words.

Yep E85 is 2 miles from me. I'm going to blow it, but for right now just NA. Do you think E85will help that much?

E85 lets you play with timing a lot more.

That's very interesting to know, thanks for that info evil.

E85 lets you lean out the engine to the brink of destruction and not blow!

I found my old build thread haha.
Alright, back to buisness. I took a few to read over what ive listed, and a few things have changed.
- My heads are done, vacuum tested at 28-29" of water, they're 2006 castings from a P71, factory valves with 3 angle VJ, radius exhaust, decked .012", slight port work, took .045" off intake valve margin. My combustion chambers CC'd to 45cc's on the dot.
- Bought a set of used Kooks long tubes
- I bought a complete B-Headed engine, but I will be using my .020" over NPI block (50K miles) for this one.
- I'm still using my MHS 224/226 cams, I will be installing these at 106 ICl
- Pac springs and vitons seals
- Trick flow crank gears
- I will be selling my bullitt intake and accessories since I'm not running turbo. I have a new PI intake that I will be using. Just a quick refresher. I will get pucs up tomorrow before I get yelled at lol.

Good morning to everyone. It's pouring a rain here, my sinus headache has worsened, but want to give a shout out to some good peoples, evil, garza, blak, white, and burningriver for the good words and the welcome back. I truly appreciate it greatly, thanks again! I was shocked to see my old thread still here. She is currently in the garage at my dad's house ready for surgery. Me and the old girl has a 17 year love affair. So it begins! Lol AGAIN!
