get billet gears for your oil pump if your not going dry sump and get the bottom end fully balanced.
custom exhaust manifold...yes
What is the current exhaust diameter?
ARP bolts wont be needed,rods will come with bolts and std head bolts are good to over 500bhp
Inlet manifold will need replaced for 450bhp
neil roper or ian howell for the headwork.
i think you should be speaking to ian howell at area six mate. did you find out what gearbox it uses and does it have a LSD?
cheers mate
I thought I needed to use my 1800 oil pump on the 2 litre engine?
I am going to get the pistons machines to accept the eagle rods, should be easy looking at whats needed.
Will look into the billet gears, thanks for that mate
Current exhaust is 3 inch downp all the way back.
Will look into replacing the IM.... how much can the stock IM support then?
I have looked at area six, they sell some nice stuff!! Will quite possibly contact Ian but need to do as much as possible myself to save costs..
it uses an MTX 75 and has an LSD
