Well, after owning this SC for a while now I'm more comfortable with it.
It has things that definitely need to be addressed such as the DIS, and snout noise (coupler/bearings) and I know how to deal with them.
For future reference I'd like to know what some of the experienced "builders" around here think I could stand to do with the list of mods this car already has.
I'm just looking to make this car run how it should, as I feel like my brother "Thunder427" never had a chance to fully do that.
List of mods(some things added to the list after the engine was gone through last year:
-----------------
bored .30 over
polished crank
heads decked
new soft plugs
new cam bearings
new pistons
valve job
Custom grind Cam .560 lift 218/224 duration(new valve springs to go with it)
Ported heads (gasket matched)
All new Felpro upper gaskets
ARP head studs/bolts
Ported early style M90 ( by chris lazzo )
Ported exhaust manifolds
Straight duals, knocked out cats, no mufflers
Raised top
73mm MAF
Custom CAI
800cfm IC fan
5% overdrive pulley
5% jackshaft pulley
underdrive pulleys
BHJ Balancer
36 lb injectors
190 lph fuel pump
irdium plugs
AOD Rebuild kit
Lentech Manual/Auto valve body
2500 Non locking stall convertor
Art carr input shaft
4:10s in the rear.
1.5" lowering springs
--------------
Once i 'rebuild' the snout, replace the DIS and find air leaks (i have a vacuum/boost leak or something right now i need to hunt down), I'm thinking
bigger fuel pump and bigger injectors.
Very soon I'm going to do the plugs/wires due to potentially running rich. (103s at .45 seems to be the best bet)
Should I do something with the MAF and such? Any other suggestions to make this car run to its full potential?
Thanks for reading through.
