i will also be searching for a shell, but what shape i am yet to decide

gunna be getting the white lab coat on, zip up my pockets and experimenting the shit out of this one see what can be done with little to no money as possible obviously ill be buying ggenuine gaskets and rebuild bits, but for more powers ill be seeing what i can put together

[Asad]

do some light porting to it, port match the ports...clean all the casting marks up theres gotta be atleast 5-10 bhp sitting right there

[ryan lang]

thats the plans dude lighten flywheel, crank maybe even pistons if i can figure out a way of going about it without disrupting it structuraly lol
