its funny how it happened tho. i sat here and thought i dont want it on the intake side as then id have to run wires across the front so thinking of somewhere to install them i remembered all the members who hid the factory wiring in the side panel.. and i thought hey under the headlight is a big empty cavity... once the headlight is in you cant see the screws poking through either. and i used factory screws so i know they wont rust

yeah its an NA cam i had in an ea a few years back, made 160rwkw, but hey the price was right, il give it a try, can always change it aye, the tight LSA makes it realy punchy in the midrange
so it should spool pretty early hopefully needs more lift? how much u want! lol |

how are you going for compression? are you going to run a decompression plate? or double up on a head gasket?
i probebly missed it but what transmission will you be running in it? 3 speed 4 speed ot 5 speed? i have heard the 3 speeds are the strongest, but highway driving 3 speeds suck lol |

t5 for now, a very scared t5
compression is around 8.9-1 thanks to the 2cc i took out of the bowls, bit high but with a decent tune it should be fine |

With a decent tune, and a decent IC, with the correct ignition timing & not too much boost it should be ok.

yeah i think its been proved numerous times that you dont need to decomp these motors
Fritzz for example, or the mikes dyno ea, 370 rwkw, 20psi and hundreds of 400m runs on a stock ef bottom end, secrets in the tune i think, and decent cooler like toranaGuy said |
