All the parts bolt up fine... the motor only cost me around 200 bucks...i was just curious on the horsepower difference, i wasnt beraking any records before so it isnt going to matter that much anyhow, but i dont want a turd either...

Like it was stated before. If anything you will pick up a few ponies because of the raised c/r. I would start running premium fuel though. Everything will bolt up fine and you should have no problems.

PS: I'm sure that there are lots of places to get this info but my favorite site to visit when I want to know the specs on a certain car is www.autotrader.com. You can quickly find the HP/TQ/weight/price etc etc for nearly any car. Good luck on your project.

you actually did a good thing and you will make more torque and horsepower. I think you made a good decision. the NPI motors have pistons with less of a dish to the top of them which is why your compression will rise. In the end with your heads and that motor you should be good for 290 crank hp....
