#59125, "ok it's time to buy."


          

i'm finally making my shopping list for my car. i'm over at howell making a huge list. my rents are going to cover it then i pay them back with my settlement check.

"1 x Crate Motor Short Block 2.0 Litre 420a without core
1 x The AFX Solid Front Motor Mount Diamond Star
1 x AF/X 30% Underdrive Pulley 2.0 Diamondstar
1 x AFX 55mm Bored Throttle Bodies
1 x Fidanza Engineering 2GNT Cam Gears
1 x Crane Valve Spring Sets DOHC
1 x MSD Coil 96 1/2 -03
1 x Pacsetter Header 2.0 Litre 95-99 Armor/Ceramic Coated
1 x Aerogear Evo-X Front Bumper Cover 97-99
1 x Aerogear Blitzz Side Skirts 95-99
$3,877.75"

i need body work done too so that's why the hood and stuff is on there. and finally one little question.

the motor is going to have 10.5:1 psitons. i'm debating on which cams to get. i plan on possibly a low boost turbo setup. would the #16's be to much on the NA side? i'm sorta confusesd about it because the motor is going to be run NA for a good while. boost will prolly be a project for fall. or something.

i'm also looking at these VT guys. i saw the sponsorship banner and figured i'd give a click. anyways they seem like they can do about anything. the howell site was really just to get a price list of everything and possibly order after i figure a little more out.

there are many better headers for not too much more...

16# are fine and can be used ina turbo car...

You can have it cheap, fast or good. Pick any two.

If you want it cheap and fast, it's not going to be good.
