2000 Cobra R balancer upgrade

Good posts Trinty_GT. And Rusty, FWIW, I've got Steeda UDPs on mine with no issues whatsoever. They were on there when I bought it, so I cant say if it made any sort of seat of the pants difference. But its a collection of parts that makes the car. Same could be said for the aluminum DS I have - a great HP increase? no...but every little bit helps me pull a bit harder.
Rusty, have you thought about the PHP intake spacer? Many 4V owners swear by it as an honest power maker that delivers.
 
I know that the hole is greater then the sum of the parts (if the combination is right). I'm just one of those guys that can't leave well enough alone if they know there is a viable solution out there. I KNOW that there is a proven way of freeing up power by under driving/shortining belt length and I'm just trying to achieve the optimal setup. I believe people allow convienence to stop them short of optimal or as reasonably close to optimal as possible. When I know there is a better way, it eats at me.

As far as the intake spacer is concerned, this is the first time I've heard of it. Then again, I've only had my 4V car for almost 2 months now. I'll look into it.

I think I'm going to start another thread about electric water pumps, I've been looking into them and have a few questions.
