EBay often has UD pullies for pretty cheap. What about a lightweight flywheel? I know you didn’t list it, but if you’re looking for mods… The DE and E flywheel are the same (I’ve been told) so yeah, I guess EBay might be the place for that, too. I searched up a bit for you… Here’s an underdrive crank pulley for about 50 bucks.

[http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7975900949&category=33732&sspagename=WDVW](http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7975900949&category=33732&sspagename=WDVW) Just remember to search at ebay.ca (not .com) so you only get the ones that will ship to Canada. ---

How about (or choose from): – Good clutch, brakes, tune-up if needed – Fidanza flywheel (eBay) – Cams (available from PDM Racing if willing to go U.S.) – Intake (eBay it…) – Exhaust w/ header – Pulley set – Timing advance & higher octane fuel The following dyno is PDM Stage 2 cams, pulley, header, intake & “tuning”: ![http://www.pdm-racing.com/products/imag/DOHC_stage2.jpg](http://www.pdm-racing.com/products/imag/DOHC_stage2.jpg) 163.1 rwhp, 161.4 rwtq. Pretty nice NA numbers. Being that this is a DOHC, your SOHC would probably be around the range you’re looking for. Just some ideas. 🙂 ---

:lol: I’m yanking your chain. I can give you some advice on internal work, IE raising compression. Raising compression and running side-drafts or ITB’s like the 510 guys in best way of gaining on these engines. look me up on MSN. Andrew. ---

By shaving the head a bit , you can raise the compression . :twisted: ---

i would not recommend shaving over a few thou to straighten the mating surface. When you want to raise compression, pistons are the way to go. Andrew. ---

These are great guys thanks, Andrew I added you to msn, thanks 😃 I dont want anything to hardcore because this will be my daily driver, Want to be able to run 91 in it if possible. for timing it can go 2 degrees clockwards, and run 91? right?
