    Rebuild should be finished in 3/4 weeks hopefully.
    Am considering upgrading a few more bits and pieces but I am not too sure.

    While it's off the road and in pieces now is the time to do it IMO.

    It's been a while since my last post.
    Here is a late, late update.

    Here she is gents!
    My rebuild consists of CP forged pistons, H-Beam Manley connecting rods, ARP main studs and ACL race bearings.
    Will not be upgrading the turbo for now.
    Hoping for 250atw once tuned.
    Car is STILL at Edge Motorworks.

    Getting close to 7 months now and I think I may have had a few more greys come up....

    You can lift the head easier with them...

    Stock head studs seem to hold more power/torque than arp2000's

    Head studs hold the head on, main studs hold the crank in.
