I thought I'd never say this on a web board.... Use the Search Button.


but, I guess, all "dickishness" aside, your best bet is to at least build the bottom end with some forged stuff. That'll get you by safely on mild boost. But if you are wanting a 600 hp dyno queen, then you're gonna need to build it up a lot more.

What are your goals? HP?
