Hey guys, im bringing my motor to a shop on monday to get machine work done, and I was wondering, what else should I get while the motor is apart?
I have 650 in the bank right now, 300 at home, and im working on selling my current car for 3K.
I was going to get a
-cometic MHG and ARP head studs
-AAP motorsports delrin solid motor mounts
-bearings and engine gasket kit
I also wanted a Blitz NUR spec and all that exhaust stuff and maybe I/C pipes that shit. I gotta work out a planned final outcome.
what else would be a good idea?
thanks

How much horsepower and boost will you run? Maybe you should look into forged pistons since the engine is apart? Also, maybe some fuel mods like 550's and the associated stuff. But first, what hp do you want?

Forged pistons, and have your stock rods shot-peened? New rod bearings and ARP rod bolts? I dunno - What's your ultimate power goal?

That's what I did, everything that's in my sig I pretty much did when the engine was out...except intake/exhaust stuff...next step, fuel upgrades.
