waiting for bearings to come in, then i should be able to pick my block up on friday hopefully.

i got done cleaning up the valves. i just need to finish cleaning the rest of the head and spray out the oil passages before i reassemble it.

I think the chair needs a larger turbo...




Good looking build though!

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you.
Hope this helps
