new pics of the build

Devine · January 23rd, 2008, 01:46 AM

Just a few snaps of the new parts actually on the car. These are before drilling a hole in the valve covers for the filler tube, which we did today. Stupid unibit was too large for the drill(stupid us for not realizing that when we bought it) Yes we did take the cover off prior to drilling on it, my rockers and valves are not covered in metal shavings.

I am aware the power steering pump is completely disgusting. It's the next thing to get the axe. Pretty sure we're going to get a flaming river manual rack.

Also the oem fan is getting replaced with an electric sometime this week.

Oh, and just a warning to anyone out there thinking of getting the ARP timing cover/water pump bolt kit............DON'T Only like 4 of the bolts even fit

Looks great man!
Well except for that power steering pump, it looks like crap!

LOL J/K
Is that the Trick Flow top end kit or just a intake and valve covers. If it's the top end kit which one is it? How much of a difference do you feel in the car?

Really similar to the trick flow kit. Click my name and view garage and there's a list of ours mods.

I'll try to get some dyno numbers up this week. We had 225hp/298tq when it was just afpr/exhaust/maf. Hopefully it will show some decent numbers.
