    Anyone need a tune after Long Tubes on sohc???

    Did you disconnect the battery? Your computer should take care of your A/F for the most part, but will probably run a little rich with long tubes. I have similar mods as you and I ran a slow(MPH) 13.3 N/A. All I had was Longtubes, o/r H, magnapacks welded in, nitto 315's, gears, upper intake...

    What To Do About My Idiot Mistake???

    If your piston is all the way out and the pads are together, take the outer pad off, and leave the one against the piston on, and use a C-clamp to push it back. Tightened it very slowly!put your pads back on and you should be fine.

    Motor

    ...with nitrous. CHP's 5.1 with flat top pistons is a 12:1 and should handle a 250 shot very well. Why buy a lower compression motor?

    Motor

    when getting a forged motor why not pay an extra couple hundred for .5L, and for 400-500 shots, you tell me where to buy a motor that will handle that that isn't over 5k assembled in a shortblock. And why not run high compression like 12:1

    Motor

    if i'm not in high 9's low 10's after this much money i'm going to be pissed. Thats my question though, why dont i just buy a crate motor with like 500+ hp and throw a plate system on it and at the end of the day it will be pretty close money wise, but with a crate I'll need a tranny, etc.

    question about big bore set-ups

    Is a Big Bore a 5.4 block bored and stroked? Would a 5.4 fit with no problems? and would things like my headers, intake, and heads fit?
