    im in the process of doing head gaskets and figured since im doing them might as well have the blower ported and runn a phenolic ssic and do some 1.95 rr.
    1. i know i have to upgrade springs but to what?
    2. are the head bolts reusable?
    3. will a 3 angle valve job give me power($300). or port the heads?
    4. im doing headers to can i have a 3.4 pulley i hope i can drop to 3.25 or smaller
    5. should i go green instead of dex cool, how do i keep from blowing another head gasket?



    and yeah i know a cam would do better but im broke and im pissed because i this is my second black gtp(had a daytona) and i just got the engine put in and now this..... smh always some bs lol. why couldnt this happen to silvermist chick lol(i think i need to get my own sign on because im confusing some)

    What is this dropping the subframe crap?

    Get a cam with more money? Ported heads without a big cam isn't worthless...but your not taking full advantage of the situation...hog them out and get a big cam and make big power.

    you can either loosen the cradle and work in the passenger wheel well or, you can pull the motor from the top and work on engine out of the car

    l76 valve springs.

    if your sending the heads to coupe its worth the 300$ see if they cant blend the bowls also. porting is fairly easy and you can do it yourself but do some homework on it before you fubar the flow all up. larger does not necessarily mean better.

    get new head bolts.

    You dont even have to take the hood off to get the engine out with the heads off.
