Valve job and other bits
Got the Fm Sways, heat shield, shock tower brace, spec 2 clutch, and headers swaped today...and a good start on getting my MOMO seat installed.
Bad news is Gary said that I would likely need to have a valve job, we are supposed to do a compression test next time I am over there to see what he can find out, then I will likely go and have either the valve job done or a top end rebuild.
After driving Gary's NA I now have somewhat of a baseline and my car has probably about half the torque and power as his, so much that I had to look under the hood to make sure it didn't have a turbo or SC in it.
I knew I wasn't getting as much power as everyone else but dayum.
Just another pit stop on the way to Boost.
on a good note the car handles great!, and sounds awesome.

One issue I have heard Billy with getting just the top end done, is that the fresh head will now pull oil up past the rings. I am sure Gary can point you in the right direction with a compression check though.

Nah no pics yet, I sure hope I dont have to have a total rebuild.
