Since people are talking about cams, I figured would post something up about some engine build up plans that I had questions about.

People here have had much more experience with parts and combos and I want to make sure I have the right set of parts together.

I am running on the stock block but just got done putting on
Well here is the list anyway
1990Eclipse
6-bolt motor
APR head studs
New timing belt
Blance shafts eliminated
Evo 3 manifold
running on stock intake
255 fuel pump
GM MAF-MAFT
Greddy Front mount intercooler
ACT 2600 clutch and flywheel

For engine management I am going with a MSII system. I know people like the DSM link and there is more support for it but however I like the idea of putting the computer together myself and tuning it.

So my question is how much abuse will the stock 6 bolt take?
I figured I might as well run it close to the limit of use and when I am at that point it will be time for me to take the engine out again anyway.

So with that in mind. What turbo should I go with?
I want something bigger then a Evo 3 16G and I am thinking of a 50 Trim

For cams
I am thinking BC 272/272 but wanted opinions or see what else people like.

I don't need this car as a daily driver, just looking for something fun on the street and the track. It is my fun car and I intend to use it that way

anyway I will start there and see what people thing. Also anything else that I need?
4 bolt conversion is on its way also

Thanks!!
