How much horsepower you wanting?

A quick note....... A bottom end is not where you get your horsepower. If your bottem end is nice and tight, Spend your money on top end... Cam/heads/intake/carb...Upgrade the engine and headers.. You could spend 10 grand on the bottem end and still have 250hp lol

Cam and heads are the pantie droppers. Throw in some compression.

Watch your compression ratios because you don't want to run race fuel in a daily driver.


The race fuel my engine runs is 17 bucks a gallon, And its not freindly with anything it comes in contact with. lol
