Yea some of my friends/associates are involved with the SEMA show and this is something that is not helping me with my car right now with my car in need.

I'll keep ya updated.

Hey Alpine,

Are you living at the shop? (lol) I'm coming down on Friday but you'll probably be done and gone by then. My installation is scheduled to start on Oct 30.

Good luck and keep the posts coming.

For engine information, feel free to PM me anytime. The basic engine build-up is between $5000-$6000 including parts and labor. So start saving now! The pistons and rods are only around $1800 but you'll need a fuel misc parts, and a possible fuel injector upgrade....depending on how much you are looking to make in terms of whp. The rest of the cost is labor.
Don't forget a new clutch to hold all that power

I don't think this post was for me, but I currently have the JWT/NIsmo setup.

Should be good for about 400HP, so we'll just have to wait and see.
