What are you talking about? We have LOTS of members with built motors and tons of information/posts/histories/examples/photos on the subject.

A newbie with 3 posts should probaby put a little more thought into what he says.

Good luck with your build. Looks like you are using good quality parts and have a decent plan for the motor.

man its too bad nobody is doing a KA build, what are we gonna tell these guys?

zerothread?id=176176 zerothread?id=141427 zerothread?id=116403 zerothread?id=106681 zerothread?id=91267

just a couple examples with pictures...and for some reason i cant find most of the ones that really stand out in my mind (like fiznat's last build). just because you didnt see it on the first page, doesnt mean we havent done it. we have over 40,000 members after all. but anyways nice work on the build so far, keep the pics coming.

it was a joke sheesh...but anyway i plan on using the "standard" T3/04E turbo to start and later going to a GT30....fuel system will be 720cc injectors, walboro fuel pump, management will most likely be an AEM EMS....yes the head will be built as well most likely with a complete rebuild also with port and polish, 3 angle valve job, pdm cam, solid lifter conversion.
