TX +1


but neither Obama or Romney. Why does everyone think they can only choose between the two? That ish gets annoying. Do research and you will find out they are both two faced lying SOBs.

Personally I like Ron Paul, Rand Paul, and Gary Johnson....kinda.

OEM spring and valve longevity

So I'm about to start putting things together. (just dropped my crank off for grinding) I was wondering should I replace my valves and springs from a head with ~140k-150k on it? I'm just doing a high compression 200whp goal line for now. I'm not going with upgraded ones I just want to know if you gu...

Yes I also have ITBs in mind later down the line. Now I'm actually focusing more on lower end torque and lesser high end. This is from my experienced rally guru. Also, most all of the head work is going to be later on. It's out of my budget for now. May have enough at the end for springs and a cam....

Torch the chassis to remove all the rubber, wire etc. And that wouldn't weaken anything at all? Being in rally, hopping across dirt and ruts and jumps I need to have as much strength as I can...while also saving weight.

It also has new OEM valve seals and no sludge. lol When I match HGs do I match them to the block I'm using or the head I'm using?

What are you torquing them too to stretch them before you loosen them and do a final torque?

And re-torque after 500 miles, correct?

Okay so I have searched with little results.... I was wondering the appropriate torque values for ARP HEAD studs using ARP's ultra-torque lube. I see the thread "How to build a KA24DE" but it didn't mention if he used ARP head studs or not. He did say he used ARP moly lube, however. Dumb q...
