I will have my rods and new set of pistons late next week. I have ordered stuff from parts dinosaur and am talking with MAP and Dukes for the rest of the parts.
Some good changes this year is new timing belt stuff, I am building a new head with 1mm over valves new springs and crazy light titanium retainers plus shims to tighten up the springs as much as possible.
The block with just get the glaze broken and new rings/bearings installed.
I am going to try a ICS Titan copper head gasket:

And new MAP ultimate duty L19 studs.
Also I am getting a set of Hoosier QTP tires:

I will make a few minor changes to the entire setup. The goal is a little less rattles, fix some drivability, and get the car aligned, and have the ems control boost and have VSS input with an electronic speed sensor from a 2g.
I will post pics and updates as needed.
