While at DB Spaz noticed my stock 4b11 pistons said 0331 on them and commented on Jake, but was like oh not quite :)

Some completed head pics, nothing too fancy...Danny scared me about the shims falling out so I didn't want to mess with it too much. Thanks Spaz for holding the head while i snapped a pic!

Danny said his guy didn't get too crazy on the head because he didn't see much restriction. He said he got the bowls inside pretty ported out though. The 4b11 head flows very well already, i am sure this helps though :)

The oversized valves all in :)

So it sounds like every piece for the build is there now. Danny said its just a matter of putting the head on the block and putting the bitch back in. So hopefully they don't have too many emergencies of people that need stuff asap so they can focus, lol.

Also, I think i am going with the cocktail mix when they put the tranny back in...the amsoil felt really thick until it heated up and didn't seem to help the notchiness enough.

Yeah, Red Line sounds like the way to go.

Awesome! What headstuds are you putting in this beast?

Standard ARP's.

That is all they have besides the cosworths and I am not shelling out that much for headstuds.

I spoke with Danny on this and he thought I'd be fine anyway. The Evo heads aren't prone to lifting like the dsm heads. Also all the big builds use ARP ones anyway.

Not to mention ETS used ARP's on their 800whp build at like 40psi, i think i'll be ok :)

Great choice on the Redline cocktailX (2xMTL 1xMT90). I put mine in at 1,200 miles and still felt I waited too long :D

The AMSoil was better than stock, but it just seemed way too thick I think.
