Default Upgrade time

Well, the time has come, a little sooner than I expected, to upgrade. The "Silver Bucket" will be getting a new heart. I am going with a VT Race longblock with stage 2 heads and cams, Manley forged h-beam rods, Manley forged pistons, Forged crank, ARP main and head studs, , Comp Cams valve springs, Ferrea oversized stainless steel valves and a NICE LOPEY idle. Will also be jumping the shot up a little more with the addition of a Bullitt intake conversion. Shooting for 600 RWHP.

Sorry to hear it Mitch, but I know EXACTALY how your feel. Very nice choice on the motor, your going to make me save my pennies and go with JDM's Stage 2 CAM also and turn the BOOST up alittle just to keep up with you.
