Thanks 99,
I am going to pick the motor up after the holidays. I would like to take everything off the 2001 engine myself just to see how it is done but will get a friend of mine to put everything on the 1998 engine.
I was thinking of getting rid of the meth/waterr and just getting an Ebay intercooler since alot of people are saying that the tune is a pain for the meth injection.
Poppajac.

again, put the 2001 engine in there and swap the FI setup on that.
if the 2001 is already built then it would make more sense to use that and not the 98 motor...unless i missed something. from what i gather you have a stock 98 motor with FI and a built 01 motor your going to tear apart....should be the other way around lol

Yea, just get the whole thing and see what can be done with it. Maybe by throwing a rod...it didnt throw it through the block. But the heads and cams are a must for you to get to 400rwhp. But chances are that those pieces will get you into your "rod throwing" power level so be careful.
