That 10% can be the most fun part of it though! It can be VERY frustrating at times though.

yes it can, to the point of saying "**** this" and spending almost 10k putting together a high compression forged 347 . and i must say putting together a custom setup aint no joke, its amazing how little extras like measuring, spec'ing, flowing, real custom cam shafts, proper valvetrain geometry, ect add to the final cost and down time of a setup. hopefully it will all be worth it

Hi all:

I'm a new member. Today's my first day on the site. I drive a '97 Formula convertible that I purchased last fall. Nice car. (Actually, it's better than "nice". I still smile every time I look at it!)

I'm looking forward to learning a lot from this experience.

Thanks!
