    So why didn't you stick good rods and pistons in? or are stock pistons forged?

    The stock NA internals have been run at 500 WHP by quite a few people.

              What are you talking about? I haven't rebuilt any motors VG30 motors, and the one I'm currently working on is only half done. So does that count as .5 VG30 motors? :icon_scratch:

                how is it going Jason? welcome? i dont know im confused. too many people introducing themselves after they have been on here for 2+years. I might just have to introduce myself again just to start a new thread.

                anyway, hope to see you out a little more this summer. you and Gary both. Maybe I go to the wrong events.

                  ok so you haven't rebuilt one yet...... you instead just go buy another stock salvage engine

                                      No, just an inch.

                                      Here is a picture of me standing on the stock spring. Standing on the stock spring brings the spring down to the same height as the ZR Race coil spring. I can bounce on the stock spring, but standing on the ZR Race coil's ,they wont move or bounce. :icon_bigsmurf:
