You need to get it resleaved, put forged, low CR internals in it with forged, shot-peened rods. Get the entire thing balanced and blueprinted, have the head P&Ped. Port your turbo manifold and downpipe, get a ceramic impellar and make sure you have head studs of high quality.

You can send my $50 to 2414 Breathstone Drive, Powell OH. 43065.

Thanks

sweet can your send you $50 my way too? hehehe jk about you whole english mistake...but helms is god downright. It helps putting together a motor, but you have ot have some whit also...Its not fool proof and if your not sure of yourself, pay an experinced machine shop to do the work. Sometimes its worth the labor.
