Which pistons are you going with? You are doing cams too correct?

How much you charge for both shipped if your friend doesn't buy it?

I say you leave the band names off the valve covers and come up with something more clever.

I was thinking about the 265s but there are a couple others im considering. Piston wise I think I will follow evryones direction and try to get close to 10:1 cr so I have some figures to work up.

Soo what if I get 4v exhaust flanges and just weld them onto my current longtubes and then just use those with my new engine?

If I had ibd's skills that be no problem, but I dont know how to weld haha

Maybe an exhaust shop could do this for me?

Found a set of 4.6 4v headers for 309.99. Pacesetters. Its only 300 bucks to try em out and see if theyll work or not. If not, I sell em on craigslist and make a few bucks back and stick with shorties. Hmm....
