They WILL look like **** after they are run. And I get a smoking deal on coating. Less than $250 for all you see done!

For high load cavatation issues. Plus I sold my old oil pan for $200 and installed it for $300 So I paid $89.00 for my moroso

There is no PCV system. It goes to catch cans off each valve cover.

I wanted it to be heard. And after hearing Nineballs GTO BOV I am sold Even though it routes back to the intake duct.

Im all about the track. So I dont have HP/TQ or PSI goals. I would like to run a mid 9 sec pass and drive home with the AC/and stereo jamming
800 would be nice thru the auto

This is my weekend car. I just choose to put a little more into it for my own saftey at the track. I new what goals I wanted this time and thats just the way it ended up. Hope that answers your questions

I finally got all the parts for the build so its a matter of getting the time to finish her up. Thanks for the props! Its been a long road this year considering Ive pulled the engine 3 times this year and went with the stroker this time.
