mike i put on 64 cc dart iron eagles, 2.02/1.60 ss valves, bronze guides, 200 cc intake runners. i actually bought them off a guy on CT that i met in the chat room. he bought them for his race car and never got around to installing them.

Let me tell ya! The thing sounds really mean. Has one h3ll of a rumble and a really good throttle response! I enjoyed it Ryan, thanks for the invite.

Man, I would have liked to have been part of that but I was laying ceramic tile all day. :( I think my wife would have divorced me had I not though. I can't wait to hear your truck, sounds mean!

Had a blast
 
That thing is gonna run like a raped ape once fine tuned! It sure sounds sweet and pulls very hard. I had a good time helping out. It's great to see so many people willing to help and learn at the same time. Thanks to the swap, I now have regained the want to, to toy with mine again. I've been going through a bit of a lull, and haven't had the truck out of the garage since early November. Once the weather clears up, I'll have it back out pounding the pavement.

Ryan, we may just have to hook up and go side by side and see what happens?! It'll be fun atleast. At any rate, you'll be eating suckstangs and 'maros in no time.

Tell you ma, that she makes some good burgers and beans. Sorry about the after math of the beans though! ;) I ran myself out of the garage a few times.

yeah a little heads up action would be sweet. brandon needs to get his gears in and we all need to take a trip out to the track. once you get the kinks worked out on yours it would be tortus vs. hair but still fun.:D
