I picked up a fresh rebuilt head for free never installed. was decked,tanked,and ported
I also picked up a set of bc springs and retainers for 60.00 from a local and slapped them in with a set of evo 3 cams and called it good.
this was all when it was still n/a
also installed oem power windows traded cvd my crank set up for his power set up

now to the new stuff. I have 90% of the parts to put a turbo set up on the car. I think it is funny since it is a oem 4g61t car and it has been a na car since I put it together even with the built engine and built head.
first off I traded off my zentronics wideband for a maft translator,extension harness and new gm mas and 400.00 cash
