Default a sad day...

but not really....

pulled the engine out of the 98 today, i had a head built for it, and wasted my clutch at the same time, so i figured it would be just as easy to pull the engine to work on the head and change the clutch at the same time, then i started thinking... well, while im at it why not through a cam in, and while im there why not some new rings and berings, then hell why not a new exhaust manifold, and cure all my wastegate issues and high boost psi problems too now i'm broke

so now i have a pile of parts going in... 3600#dd clutch w/input shaft and hydro upgrades, o-ringed head, .020 over head gasket, arp studs, bigger external wastegate, ported the wastegate and inlet on the s300, htt manifold also doing some porting, 100psi boost gauge, drive pressure gauge, waiting on my hamilton cam to arive still, and a lot more little things, i cant wait untill its done

here are some pics, the porting is 1/2 done so you can see the difference, weather on not it will help, i dont know, but it makes me feel better.
