Here are some pictures of the ported,polished head with the SI valves.

dsmpride is offline right now because i'm upgrading to fadora linux (redhat)... It shouldn't be down to long so hope you all can live with the links.

1.Here is a picture of how we mounted the MSD-DIS2

wow! that's a hell of a nice port job! i just gotta say, the heads on our cars IS really a good design. if you look at the ports, notice it just goes straight through to into the valves instead of having to curve upwards like most heads i've seen. the only thing that sucks for us is that hump that we gotta remove in both ports. i gotta do that as well. very nice man, you should have some nice gains with that. hurry up and dyno that thing! ;)

You cut this?



I think that is somewhat structural to the rear suspension...
Hmmmm

That is the 'factory' reat strut tie bar, so-to-speak. Don't know how necessary it is on a drag car, but I wouldn't cut it out of my car.

solved... weld it back in... re-enforce it... the fuel cell is no longer there and we still have the old part... we have a welder with extra metal..
