    Octane, A/F, and overboosting

    kind of unrelated to your question... but to clarify things: 1) our stock injectors are 440cc 2) i would never drive without a fpr 3) just because the car CAN boost that high, doesnt mean you have to drive it to that point. meaning drive carefully and dont floor it all the way home. 4) if...

    unbolting stuck driver's seat

    i had that same prob with my car.... sometimes when i slide the seat forward, it would keep on going and the seat belt would choke me.... lol you need to push in that plastic panel where the seat adjuster is. seems that the switch wasnt making contact with the wiring (at least with mine).

    Need help cheap rebuild!!!!

    i had the block machined, painted and assembled (crank,rods, bearings, etc) as well as the head machined and rebuilt with a 5 angle valve job for only $1100 not including parts. i assembled everything else on my own. it depends on what internals you chose to use.

    build questions

    build thinking about the future

    if your planning on pushing a lot of power.... then yes. you should get some forged pistons. its good insurance that you wont blow your newly build motor. personally, i have melted a piston. and it was a pain to figure out what the problem was until i pulled to motor apart. but that was due...
