Not feeling the color scheme, but Im sure that thing screams! Still using that little stans header? A nice custom long tube with 3" collector would help that thing breathe, thats if you plan to stay n/a forever
Love the brace as well.
yeah N/A it will stay i have a nice lil zex 150 shot for it.
For real Paul, nice work so far! *over my head* though
Wow... that 4 point is awesome.
^took the words outta my mouth!

the only thing i don't like about it is i made it with out the battery in the car so ill have to relocate the battery.
only takes about 30mins to make one so just give me a pm i could weld one up if anyone wants one.
Still love the cam towers......

I'd love a 4 point like that, but there's that whole NC to IA to NC travel thing
My wife is from Burlington, IA...so if I manage to get some vacation time together I'll see about coming out for a visit.
Hmmm I do like that 4 point hmmmmmmmm

Nice build. I am not feeling the color choice of the intake manifold and cam towers.

If everything pans out, there will be one this fall. It should work well for guys like Paul and the SC LD9's

not feelin the color or the brace. the color looks like you cleared over primer to give it some shine :/
maybe it was all the crazy ass angles of the pics you took but i just got a headache lookin at this stuff.
now for the real issue at hand, hell ya with upping the comp!! get that beast goin. i wanna see some track time and some motivation for me to do something with my 2.4.
Not feeling the brace or the cam tower colors.

paul... wtf man? that cam tower/manifold color has GOT to go man. you seriously cant think that looks good? i know you better than that...
OMGZ i cant wait til you build me my strut brace like that from *caugh* aluminum *caugh* though
-actually loving the 'its raw and nasty but still powdercoated' theme on it now that ive actually seen good pics.
-the grenade sticker stays no matter what.
cant wait man. this is finally it. your going to hit your goal with this one. i can feel it in my bones, man.
you never did thank me for making the piston deal work you a-hole.
I'm tired of wasting my time... now I'm breakin' free.
may be a dumb question but what is the pully for on the driver side beside the cam towers?
looks awesome so far btw

the pulley is for an electric supercharger along with the power steering minus the electric supercharger.
none of it is hooked up as you can see, i run my car the same way.
Dear lord those pistons are gorgeous!
Looking real nice Paul. I would like to see how a build like yours, and some work done to the crankshaft.
If one would consider the clutch part of the crankshaft you have tweeked it. I wonder what a knife endged / lightened and then a really good balance job would be like. It's all about the degrees of refinement. The setup you have now should kick plenty of butt.
bad news guys... his BRAND NEW timing chain snapped in half after like 130 miles a couple days ago. got it apart last night and like 5 or 6 links showed destroyed.
paul thinks valves are fine though....
PFFT secret cams?! pm me if you want a real upgrade.

Holy crap...that sucks!
I really like how industrial the bay looks. The colors wouldn't have even crossed my mind honestly, but I like it, it just looks mean! Hope you get er running [again] soon man!
