Ok lets start a couple of months ago i upgraded my turbo , quick list Greddy down pipe, testpipe, apexi n1,greddy hot pipe , mr manifold, greddy turbo extension, earls turbo lines , gt2871r gtrs, greddy intake, z32 mass air, greddy m spec intercooler, greddy e01, RS enth rom tune . The car ran crazy strong for like seven hours ,then piston number three went .I bought a spare shortblock dropped it in. So every body usually goes topmount i want to do something a little different . I want to add a greddy manifold and cold pipe tomei 260 cams valve spring Retainer valves from super tech and eagle rods and cp pistons . and a 50 or 75 shot of the old columbian bam bam Im rebuilding the motor my self i already have my parts list new oil pump bearings etc etc . What would you guys change ? And do you guys know any good machine shops down here in South florida?

that sounds like an awesome build. Any particular reason you went with eagle rods as opposed re-using the stockers? I thought the stock rods were solid for 400+ hp

pretty sure the rods are good for 400 hp but eagle rods are the **** especially if he went with H beams and not I beams.

Sounds pretty good. As far as machine shops in FL go pretty much the supreme SR building, machining, and tuning shop in the US, Mazworx is there.

Mazworx is the **** they are the best at what they do the only problem they want to charge me close two 3000.00 in machine work for the block alone. But i will be ordering most of my parts through them good people over there.
