Vibration?

Performance ?

Pics?

NOS Kit...still not finsh installing it
and more just cant think of everything right now

So you got rid of everything greddy but the manifold? I assume you're still running the emanage? The downpipe is custom? How do you like the the boost controller? What do you mean by "Shortblock machine assembly work", is that the same as sleeved? I'd love to see what the manifold looks like with the external wastegate as this is something that will happen to mine soon.

You have the limiter....Awesome! Is that the only form of engine bracing you have, or is it in conjunction with the ETD as well.

Oh. I saw the tial and 50mm and thought it was the WG, the BOV didn't register.

The notching then is done whenever anyone gets new rods I would assume so it's not a big thing? So he has like an = to a stage2 ZPI short block.

How to preload
1. put shifter in first gear
2. you bring the engine to your desired launch rpm
3. pull up on emergency brake while keeping your thumb on the button so it wont lock
4. release the clutch up to the point where it starts to grab (this takes the slack out of the drivetrain therefor reducing the initial shock introduced to all associated drivetrain parts)
5. when ready to launch, simultaneously release the clutch and e-brake
6. you have just launched with preload
