nice work! I'm jealous.

 

i ordered an opti tonight now i just need to get a water pump and the headgaskets i think im getting a little excited

also is there any other "free HP" im prob gunna do away with the ac as i broke a line today and im sure its a bagillion dollars to replace

 

living in SC, are you sure you won't want AC at all?

 

no i do really need it we started using it in early march but with that line broken plus the 50$ worth of freon ill need... i dont think ill have ac this summer (i didnt have ac in the 3.4 either it wasnt too bad unless i got stuck in traffic)

 

AC is over rated! My dad made me get mine fixed when I first bought my car because he said I would want it. I wish I could have spent my money on something else. Oh well... I never use my AC. That's what the windows are for haha

 

so i got the port and polish all done it took about 5 hrs or so to gasket match the heads(both intake and exhaust) and the intake manifold i also did the part of the mani where the tb bolts... i prob took about 1/2lb of aluminum out... tomorrow im getting head gaskets, exhaust gaskets, plugs and wires, injector orings, headbolts, lifters, pushrods and an oilchange. i should be getting the opti early next week along with a new waterpump and stat. im hoping to have the car running by the end of next week then ill be saving for an SS hood and wing and a paintjob

 

Thank God the car only needed a new opti!!!

 

lol its gunna be worth it tho thats about $1150 running

 

well shes all ready to start just waiting on the opti which should be here tomorrow ill be sure to take a video

 

did you get any pics of that coolant transfer tube in the back of the heads?
