    IMG_0171.PNG I kinda like the older engines myself. Add a 5+4 or 6+4 would be perfect, have all the gears you need for about all areas of driving.

    It is now :D.... started it's life as a 315.
    Now has all 400 pistons, timing, and pump is set to CPL 625 with higher flowing 190 injectors from another CPL. Few adjustments and it will be where I want it.
