I was just spending some quality time in the Things We've Seen Before section and I found a thread about 200hp NA. It looked like Skrilla had quite a setup going on. His post was dated about 2 years ago and I got to thinking, I haven't seen him around lately. Does anyone know how he's holding up? How's the 2GNT running? Does he still have it?

Anyway, a lot's changed in the past 2 years, and seeing as I'm getting ready to tear into my 420 like a fat kid into his snack cakes, I was curious what else I should be doing to my bottom end that might help me to achieve NA nirvana in the long run.

I've got the 10.5:1s the Eagle rods, and the AFX UDP, but I'm looking for a general game plan for this long term project. I was thinking cams, gears, some headwork and maybe one of those spiffy new Howell ECUs.

I know I'm just laying the foundation now and I'm not expecting much more than a pinch of powah, but with some serious breathing (and AFC) tuning, would that ECU give me the extra bit of HOO-wah! That I'm looking for? I am really excited about getting this started right. It feels almost like the week before Christmas!!!

So, any thoughts/ideas? Should I knife edge the crank? What sort of things do I want to get done while I'm in here this deep? TIA!

If you can swing it, definately get yourself a set of cams.

Thanks Jim!
Cams are my stage 2. Right now I'm looking at bottom end stuff. Anybody got some bottom end ideas? TIA!

I have some 10.5:1 JE pistons laying around email me if you are interested

the crank comes knife edged from the factory...no need to knife edge it.

I used to draw all kinds of stuff. Then I spent 2 years as a graphic desing major. Once I HAD to draw, it was no longer fun. Nowadays, all I ever do is draw different concept cars. They generally have a black roof and resemble a DSM somewhat. I thought a 4GNt would be cool and that drawring turned out better than most, so....

Thanks for the compliments!
