Default Quick Question..

My car has 91K on it and if i was to put say, a H/C combination on it would it be ok? Or should i just rebuild it? It doesnt smoke and still runs good. Might get some cash in, just wondering where to spend it. Thanks

you can do a compression and leak down test yourself. as far as rebuild i'd take it to a trusted shop. depending on your budget i'd pick up a forged 346-348 from anyone of the sponsors, hit up APE and see if there still running there 346 special for 2500. then just slap on your h/c and go.

im no motor expert, just a dude who knows a little about alot
