Hi!
I have read what seems like hundreds of threads about upgrading an SC with bolt-ons. I think I know what I am going to do first.... But I still have a couple of questions.
Soon-to-be Upgrade list:
New exhaust system:
Stock Headers
Stock Cats
Remove resinator and replace pipes with 3"
Dynomax mufflers
Intake:
Put cone intake on stock 55mm - remove box
Pulleys:
5% SC pulley
I'm going to be replacing alot of the gaskets and seals in the engine, which means I am going to have the valve covers removed. Should I get roller rockers? Does it really increase performance by 10hp?
While I have the throttle body and supercharger intake removed, should I remove the head and replace the head gasket all at the same time? And if I do that, (remove the head) would there be any reason to port the head with the stock headers still on? Should I get the head planed?
I don't want to start taking apart the bottom of the engine - so cams are out of the question....
Thanks in advance!
