Project Black Talon

[blackrosenova400]

I was debating whether to remove my power steering or not. Than I though why not run an aftermarket P/S pump with a built in reservoir where the a/c compressor used to be. Anybody have any input/ideas on this?

If you're daily driving the car, or if you do alot of 90* parking and slow turns, I wouldn't suggest removing the power steering. I took it out of my car, and sometimes I wish I still had it.

power steering is a must unless your feeling strong everytime you drive the car. its a very clean car for what you paid for it! Those are some HUGE injectors. I guess that goes with the saying GO BIG OR GO HOME.. What kind of power are you looking to get...

I am just fine without my PS, and I have a welded center diff too..

Ill also degreed the camshafts. If anyone else wants help degreeing there cams.......

Kiss my :aikido:, it was a pain and I never want to do it again, lol.

I had to advance the exhaust 2.5 degrees and retard the intake about 6 degrees.

Damn, isn't 6* like a whole tooth? That's a lot less overlap.

[blackrosenova400]

I think it ended up that way because I degreed a 2.4 with a DOHC head
