  • which one?

    im putting this here because the reason would be to get more out of nitrous..i am going to run how i am now..wet 100 shot..maybe TRY a 125..but will probably do something more mid season..i plan on practicing my launch and getting a TC next season..anyways..both would obviously be best but what if you had to choose?..which would aid nitrous more?....

    A: 1.9 rockers with push rods and springs..creating more lift etc.

    B: ported upper and lower intakes..to help get all that juice/fuel through (and just more air obviously)

        Is a cam a plan in the future?

        If yes... don't do the 1.9's.

        When I do my cam.... I have to ditch my 1.8 SLP roller rockers.

        I say... port the intake.... but.... if you are in there... are the heads done?

          yea do the intakes instead and get the heads P&P while your at it. Better than the rockers probably for ya because for some reason I have a feeling you will be getting a cam sooner or later as well when all said and done. This way with everything ported you will have great flow and will help with the nitrous

            My heads, upper and lower intake manifolds are ported to HELL!

            I pick up HUGE #'s when spraying nitrous.... but put down WEENEY #'s N/A.

            Porting may not show its full potential N/A... but a really good port job on the bottle can kick @ss!

              I know it is off topic, but who did you have port your stuff? Wasn't it a board member here? Like magnus or something?

                    thanks for the replies...the problem is i didnt want to go too deep into the engine because of the cost and time involved..which is actually why i dont plan on doing a cam..about how much would the labor be to swap in a set of SSM heads??

                      Well:
                      Remove stock heads
                      Ported stock heads
                      Reinstalled them
                      Tax
                      Gaskets

                      Total was $1250

                      Hope that helps

                          if i was you save your money for a bit longer,
                          Heads intakes and cam at the same time... you will save 1500 in labor in the end.........

                            that was my other thought besides doing it in pieces..the GM 3800 power pack..ported intakes, heads w/ springs and 3 angle valve job all assembled, custom grind cam..but of course..for a lot more dough (labor wise..not a bad deal parts wise..espeically with the core charges)
