I bought my car a little more than a year ago when i was 15 and i added some bolt ons and i just finished the bodywork. now im taking it back apart for some motor work. Here are my current mods and my plans.

CURRENT
MAC shorty headers
2.5 inch MAC offroad H
2.5 to 3 inch MAC catback
Hurst short shifterautometers
70mm professional products polished TB
73mm C&L MAF
Anderson Power pipe
MSD ignition and coil
white face guages
4-Point Lower K-member support

PLANS:
GT-40 Iron heads
1.6 RR
Trickflow Street Heat
Trickflow Valve Covers
A/C Delete

All that should be on by ST. Patricks day

Then i am doing the suspension as follows:
Lowering Springs
Lakewood 70/30 Struts
50/50 Shocks
Eibach Sway kit
Hotchkiss Control Arms
Strut Brace
Subframe Connectors

Heres what my car looks like right now





Heres the Intake and Valve covers i have right now

they do stop flowing at .500 lift , but with an e303 cam .498 lift and 1.6 rockers ulll only be at like .508-.512 lift...it wont hurt ur power at all..if u wanted to be almolst exactly at .500 lift u shuld do 1.7 rockers, and a b303 cam...b303 cam is a perfect street cam, e303 cam is also good, but there are alot better cams out there, the letter cams are old and outdated but work well
