  • [Project] Pile of Parts

    So I need more power. I'm starting a pile of parts and when that's complete, I'm going to do some major work. My plan as of now is: ported intake (purchased), heads, cam, TB, 1.6RRs and valve covers. I'd like this thread to be a place to post what I'm doing, and get suggestions on what parts I should add.

    Here's the first part for the pile:




    Right now I'm thinking LE1 heads and one of his cams. Anyone else have these heads?

    Dont have an LE set but i have heard great stuff about his work. I will hopefully be getting a set of heads and cam from him next spring. Canton makes some really cool valve covers for Lt1 heads if you want something a little out of the ordinary.

      I should mention that I'm starting with a pretty much stock LT1/A4. I'm not looking for a strip machine, just one that sounds good and goes fast. I was thinking about buying a set of used heads and doing the porting myself.

        If you havent ported before you may wanna leave that to a professional...for the price the LE packages are a pretty good deal. Make sure to a get a nice Stall to match the cam you get.

          I'm definitely going to do the porting myself. If anyone knows anyone with stock heads, I'm looking for a set. I'm not in a hurry though.

                      sweet deal, I'd look online for some nice high temp aircraft coating to put on them before you install.
