1000cc injectors is overkill for 400whp. Sorry to hear about you mis-fortune.

Yes they are overkill but I dont want to have buy new ones again later when I get a sleeved block. That Bionic Man quote is awesome haha.

Berz out.

Yep Im not upset about it its just the downtime on the car that I hate. Instead of 2 day downtime its gonna be a few weeks due to waiting for parts and stuff.

Yup bone stock internals. Took the head apart today and sent it off to get ported. Gonna get a 3 angle valve job and a full stage 2 port. Gonna take the tranny apart tommorow and put in some custom gears to make the best use of the new horsepower. Block is gonna be bored to 81mm. Man I cant wait for this beast to be ready!!

Berz out.

Whats going to be the new boost pressure? From the mods you are going to get, it looks like you could run near 20. What kind of synchros are you going to use to handle the power? I know with manual transmissions that the gears are pretty solid but the rest of the trans is what will break on you. I've heard that a tranny that can handle lots of power costs like 5k (USD).
