are you sure you can use DE's? I picked up one just before i took my motor out to replace a bad one, and it ran great until i started boosting and got above 4000rpm and then it started missing. It is very possible that i just picked up a bad one from the junkyard, but i'm weary of paying again to get something that won't work right.

didn't we determine that the coilpacks are very susceptable to heat? If so, getting a blown pack from the junkyard is very reasonable.

If you want some bad-arse ones, get a set of aftermarket ones from an RB. They're the same thing. Thats some serious dough though...

LOL, he must be hoarding those darn things. I had a couple that were messed up on my clip and he sold me 2! Sean, you're a little coilpack slut, aren't you?

i did that but then i couldnt remember how to do calculus.

oh and t88, the valvetrain should be more or less identical. i wouldnt worry about fitting problems, but i might be concerned that since they came from a n/a, they might be really high lift and duration. looks like your engine will take the best of them and ask for more though. its a hoss.

I thought that was where that tick you've got came from! I was wondering why you're always trying to bite your ear...

T88lexus, I moved your post to here. No hard feelings but when you've got a question like that, please start a new thread. Thank you!
