It’ll probably be around 170whp I would say, maybe more. but another person I know went the same route as I did except for Crane cams and did 165whp on the dyno and 14.2 1/4mile
BC Coilovers and Suspension bushings are in…
fuckin got my ass kicked… nothing like removing bolts that have never been touched since 98 by yourself.
Pics tomorrow, I gotta adjust the ride height and go get an alignment

I do, acetylene
still was a hassle with only 2 hands
Height needs adjusted in the rear
camber and toe are way out in the rear
camber and toe are pretty close in the front
gotta get an alignment sometime this week and tweak some things.
Overall it rides beautiful. firm ride but isnt bouncy or rough. took it for the ultimate test down Rt88 ( their doing construction and its all fucked up) and it rode really well. had the dampering set at full soft and it was a little bouncy, full hard is crazy firm… have them about 8 turns off soft and its smooth

just removed the AC, pointless to have because I have a slight leak somewhere and I never use it. freed up alot of space.
I still cant decide if I want to tackle swapping heads this weekend or not
