Isnt it hard on the all aluminum engines to expand and contract from the heat and cold? ---

I try not to start mine until its gets into the high 30's or 40's just so the oil flows easier.

That alone must tell you there's way more capacity in that motor than stock. And the simple porting results are another.

i sorta want to drive a ported car...but i know i'll hate myself after.

Kevin,

As Billy Joel sang, "Catholic girls start much too late, sometimes it comes down to fate...I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saint. Only the good die young" . Time to lose your virginity.

Paul,
Interesting you said that about the road.

I'm still getting used to the rate of acceleration and the very high speeds the car can run. 0-110 mph now is very comfortable for me to handle and experience but the one time so far that I ran it hard on a 2.3 mile long country stretch with no driveways, intersections, straight and flat good paved road up to around 140 mph it all seemed very fast, I wondered at the time whether the road was more crowned than I thought and while it worked okay, for me the 205 fps all had tiny elements of being just a little bit of a blur as a first time experience.

Only had mine above 100mph once, by accident while rowing through some gears. I don't really like to go high speed. I just like the torque and that loud B&B Tri Flo.

Be careful, there, Lance. No need to push your luck, especially on any public road. Alot can happen at high speed. Like to meet you some day. Stay alive and well.

Kevin, come to BG and drive mine as hard as you want.....then open your wallet for porting/cams. LOL

Paul...the good fairy will be right along with that one! Over 100 once by accident? Have some swamp land in Florida I am trying to sell!

Paul may live next to the Ndiana state cop shop and he is kidding tho the idea to be careful is good advice. I want to see all that power with 4:10 in the rear end at .B.G!

Brett, you've got Pete's cams, right? I was told to ask you how you like them. I'm kicking around my next jump. Did you do both intake and exhaust?
