nice setup man..but are you sure you dont have to fly cut your pistons? i thought the only heads to fit that cam without flycuttin where some stock valved and deck hight 243s or some afr 205s..just tryin to make sure you dont do all the work and then find out youve got to flycut ...

slim, i spoke to everyone at TSP, along with some members on the board who have this same set up....you would have to flycut if i was to run say a .040 cometic....but the fact that the cam is on a 113 and i am running stock gaskets...i am still in the safe zone....that is why I liked this set up....larger valves, more compression, no flycut...if i wanted to flycut it would have been that much better, but i just didnt want to....i am still going to check PTV before i button everything up as every car is diff....

dude lookin badass where did you get the brake pads and brake calipers

erikthegoalie

iTrader: (29)

hey man

calipers are stock, painted by me....got the decals from a non sponsor...
I HIGHLY recommend the duplicolor caliper paint kit..it comes with a small can of paint..and a brush and cleaner...IT IS THE ****....cleans with a wipe, and goes on thicker than butter....so it never chips cracks peels..nothing...i LOVE it...i actually had to redo one of the calipers, so I tried to grind the paint off with a high speed wire wheel...took FOREVER to get through the paint...good stuff! Got the pads from a member here, THANKS MEMBER, you can pick em up from any sponsor..try WS6STore...

+2 on the Duplicolor caliper paint! I did it myself on my Mustang and it looked awesome! Definitely high quality stuff. But I was a perfectionist and spent QUITE A FEW hours cleaning/painting them. I would post up pictures of it, but I don't want to take away from the sweetness of your car Definitely one bitchin' ride you've got there...

Send those pads back! I have them, they are terrible and dust really really bad. I hate them.

I will def get on that tour...and we will def meet up man....I just gotta get this dam thing going hahaha



I have heard that....and I figured I would see how they did...I really do not drive the car all that much so it may not be as bad...what pads did you eventually switch too? Do they at least grip? How bout noise?
