Yeah sorry for the double post, my computer is being stupid,

anyways, I found a good head for $300 which was a steal, I have my sleeves on order, and CP Pistons are on the way, funny thing is that the car just died, when it happened. It didn't even make a noise LOL

Wow, really? My AP1 sounds like it wants more when I hit 9k. Damn that limiter, I'm sure it's got 10k in it, especially with AP2 retainers.
