    In that case. There is no reason to bother with the SC or LIM currently. It's just added time and money that you could save up.

    The amount of benefit will be minimal at best. heck..you'd get more from a tune.

    Currently, do the gaskets that are in need and stop there. Buy parts and start modding them if you'd like. Get a different LIM and port it out, polish the inside up etc etc if you want. Buy my Gen V etc etc. lol
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    I'm polishing the exterior of my Gen V, I tell people its a performance mod and they look at me funny. I explain that it's for minimal weight savings.

    It also makes it slightly less efficient. The casting is rough to help with cool faster.

    plug coolant holes while youre at it



    Open up the coolant passages a bit more for better flow to the rear head.

    Thanks it took me a very long time to get it that way but worth it IMO maybe not give that much of a advantage but I'm sure it only does more good then harm over all.

    On the end of the LIM you open up the coolant ports for better flow.
