--- I was thinking that, it's what i have on my H22T track car. Seems to be holding up quite well. I plan on using stock rods and pistons @ the 350 mark. Once i decide to kick it up to 400-425 i want to use cp pistons and eagle rods.

Another thing i was wondering. The t4 flange inline pro manifolds are stainless steel cast. The other manifolds they have for sale are cast iron.

Jeff Evans is building the most power out of inline pros, and that's why im going with it really. It's cheap and effective. Anyone know of anything bad or just any hp rating's with the stainless steel? I know the cast irons are near indestructible.

--- Because i want to use t4 flange. I was under the impression 38mm was good up to 400-500whp builds. I believe with t4 flange set up and too small of a WG i will have boosting problems.
