-greedy headers
-hookups manifold
-eagle rods
-CTR pistons
-pr3 head
-b18b block

sorry i forgot to say but i have the 3" full exaughst straight piping and running with a ported head on ctr pistons. I'd basically just add the bigger cams but I read I'd have to upgrade my retainers and valve springs as well. Is that correct??

That's awesome! I just wouldn't build like yours haha. I'm looking to just change out a couple stuff cause I have another engine I'm trying to build too and you know it gets expensive x) I'm already at 185 whp so I'm almost there! That's without the dyno tune or changing the map layout for my p73. Which I will change out for the p28 cause a lot of my homies prefer it. No clear reason why though haha any clue Why??

if youre at 185 without a tune go tune it
ull probably end up being 190-200Whp

Find some Crower 402-2 or 403-2 and tune it on e85. You'll love it! 🤗
