Water pump, tensioners, new belts and if all thats off, you may as well throw in some cams since the labor for getting in that far is insane do to a few times. | |

Do a search and you'll find what people are tuning them to, but it will be more effective to tune them on a dyno. I use the drag strip as my dyno :) | |
