I have a cheap cx racing gt35 I might try first but if it doesn't work or when it blows ill do a BorgWarner trying to keep the cost down and still make a decent build. thanks!
Update! machine work done 5 angle valve job port and polish bore and hone .10 over and i decided on the cp pistons and manley h beams. Apr head studs and cometic mls gh welded all my holes in the bay and started grinding them.
