now you can rebuild for more power

yes i am. I plan to run a stock ct26 for now so i don't need anything too crazy. Though i do have a lex maf and ecu for 550s so i suspect i will be up in that 300 zone before long.

oh yeah I should shim my oil pump since i'll be running full flow cooler. gotta pull that back out.

I got one of these shades too. Haven't installed it yet but i might get to it soon.

Is E85 not fuel?

my oil pan should be here tomorrow which will allow me to drop my motor in the car this weekend. things to work on right now: do i want to upgrade my clutch? and where should i order OEM parts online? i want to replace a few exhaust studs but there's no local dealer.

less sealing surface area. removing a burr if fine but i wouldn't machine metal away from a matting surface. you're just setting yourself up for leaking coolant and a BHG

don't do it :)

I'm with stupid

people do most of this when upgrading a ct26 as is. When you move up to a t4 and external waste gate you add a few more parts but those parts are supporting factors for bigger power. as for soft lines, down pipes, and inter cooler hose i would argue those are going to be close to the same for...

I'm going to defuse this claim by mentioning defusers

stock front mount?

If i had to guess it was a combination of water leaking into the threaded hole corroding the threads followed by a tap that might have not lined up well enough on the rusty threads. but this is only based on the limited evidence i've seen. I had 3 or 4 head bolt holes that had coolant in them...

I'm jelly even if you said harbor freight.

I hit it with a hammer until i falls off, welcome to SM!

more down force and often less drag.

these numbers really make me want to go 57 but i'm so tapped out from everything else i've bought at the moment.

pro tip use a Scour Pad (the green ones) and a solvent like brake cleaner to remove all the oil off shims and/or buckets before measuring and you'll find a more accurate reading, often oil can throw you off 1 or 2 thousand.

have clean threads, don't bottom out the stud in the block (i normally go to bottom out then back it put 1/4 turn), and umm don't have an old corroded block?

got some used pre-made AN -12 lines for my cooler. I spent less on these used NASCAR parts than i would have on 2 reusable fittings.
