This is when I first bought my car. It had a poorly running rb20det with nothing but problems. Pretty much all of them incurred due to being owned by someone who didn't know how to care for it properly. The rb20 was short lived for me due to once I did get it running well, the timing belt idler pull...

There are at least 3 people out here I know personally who daily and hit the drift events in 300+ whp stock block KA's out here. Great turbo selection for drifting btw. Nice shot as w...

Good stuff. Nice to see more drifters on here. Out in vegas and cali we have been doing steering mods like that for quite a while now.

And a quick note. According the NEW FormulaD Rulebook for 2010 I believe the steering rack relocation is 100% legal. Although it wasn't in the previous years.

Thanks for the info guys... I have some brand new bc272's that have been sitting on my shelf for a while now. I really want to pick up the valve spring and retainer set now. Although I am worried I will blow my block if I up my power much more wihtout building it.

Of course I would love too. DDSPerformance said it was cool for me to share since I am on Megasquirt and we both believe in supporting the productive car communities ( I am friends with the owner). Check back in a bit. He has to e-mail it to me.
