Ah just a note. When doing this type of modification, you should almost NEVER rely on someone else's info(unless it's super source). So if you are serious about this type of work, you probably should be mic'ing all the measurements your self. ie.. bore, bearing size, piston size, ring size etc.... or buy a Nissan service manual. If you are trying to do major engine work w/o one for assembly or just for reference, you are crazy.

Well, all of the work will be done by a machine shop, and by my friends at an install shop....so I won't be touching it that much. I think I would need to go to them with guidelines though....

hey Screaminfast just so you know, as long as the engine bolts in (it does) the rest isnt a big deal, for 1200 u could get a programmable efi setup. then you would be set electronically. if you do the work yourself youll save loads of dough. its not hard at all. btw that tranny you sold me had bad bearings in it. thanks so much for letting me know when i plopped down the 400 bucks for it

Thanks,

Thanks....

I just contacted DPR racing in Cali too because I would like to have them do my headwork......I tried to contact TurboMax95, but he hasn't replied. I'm trying to find out how I can get a custom and thicker copper head gasket..hehe

Anyone know?

Thanks,
Mike

Ok, I need some ideas for an intercooler. Anyone have an Air to water intercooler here? I know my engine will be able to take a lot of Pressure, but at the same time I know the best I can do on the V2 is a 2.87" pulley. Anyone have some good ideas for a low pressure drop AWIC??

I'm pretty sure he ended up using stock gaskets, couldn't find anyone to make them for a decent price.
