Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
I am so happy I thought I'd share here since it might/probably will be funding my new milspec throttle body.
I sold my OEM pistons/rods that are new outta my shortblock that we used for my build...I also sold my stock cams...got almost 500 for it all 
Was a good day. |

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
Can't wait to see Mil.Spec's work on the X throttle body, everything they touched for the 8/9 was beautiful.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
No shit? What'd you get for the cams? Maybe I should list mine on Ebay or something.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
It was awesome.
I sold the cams for like 110 and the rods/pistons for 275
I think this was more of a lucky thing than anything, lol. Stock stuff like that is hard to sell but apparently people do buy it. |

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
Ha!
Which cams are even better? It's like when the old 1G Non-turbo guys would try to get cams from the turbo cars, thinking they were better, when the non-turbos(like most non-turbo cars) had more aggressive cams.
