Default Another great install at HWT Performance!

Did anyone hear the rumble as another set of AFR 205s hit the road yesterday? And in a week or so yet another set will be installed. I believe there will be more sets of AFR per-capita in little 'o Hendersonville than any where else in these United States lol!!!

You are lol!!!
His cam fits great, he even has the Cometic .040 Gaskets and has a little more clearance than he had before and they should fit fine with yours. You might want to stay with the stock gaskets though. You SHOULD have .010 to .015 more room with the stock gaskets than you have now. Let us know if we can order a set for you too!!!! I know you want them!!!

I made some changes to our HWT website, check it out and let me know what you all think. I wll add the new dyno number and track times when we get them. Will give a pretty good estimate what just the heads will do for NLs car and the Headers for mine.

I guess I am going to have to get a stroker motor just to keep up with all of you. When do you plan on getting a FAST intake and tb? That set up would really compliment that 90mm air flow.

Good luck on the track times! I know you all will have a blast when you go.

Wish I could have made it too. But it was another night that I had to work instead.

Thanks again for the great turn around geeting me that posi unit. The car is back running again and waiting for the snow to leave. And a nice price from HWT Performance too! Maybe a tax man might be nice to me and I can come make a nice motor upgrade purchase.

Wow, that late in the year? We might have to think about going to commerce or somewhere instead. Hate to wait that long.

The 90mm intake would be a good match for this setup. Waiting until a better option on the TB becomes available, or they improve on the Fast 90mm.
Oh.....did you want a price on that strocker?? lol Nawww, you've got a nice setup with yours too, especially when you finish all your "winter" projects.

Yeah, after they finished with the Heads install, he took my TB home and touched it up some! He is taking a picture of it for me that I might be able to post on here. He does them for $50. Great job too!!!
