Bought from Tom Morana...

OK,

So I broke down and bought the following from Tom.

1. Stage 3 heads
2. "B" Cam
3. 1.7:1 roller rockers
4. Longer pushrods
5. Custom aluminum valve covers

I also told him my goal is 300 rwhp n/a on pump gas so he is going to plane the heads a bit to boost compression. So now I wait to get home from Cold Lake, AB so I can get the parts installed then dyno tuned...looking hopefully by end June to have it all done...

thoughts?

Sounds like you will have some extra fun soon, but can you wait that long is the question

Hi,

Well Crafty it cost me about $2900 US as Tom bills in US Funds which kinda sucks for us Canadians but oh well. And you are right Snakebite...I can't wait!! Oh and it will cost me about another $500 for the Dyno tuning..but it will be money well spent! As for pics I will try to take some as we build it..but I have no idea how to post them up on here...

that actually doesn't sound all that bad price wise seeing what you got. and luckily the dollar isn't too bad right now.

Well 1 Low..

You'd be surprised..Tom's shop is just in Scarboro so it would actually be cheaper for you as you could just drive there.
