  • thinking of going wet

    Unless youre talking about a t-shirt, a search may be helpful...

    Why are you getting your motor rebuilt stock? If it aint broke don't fix it BUT if it breaks upgrade it.

    And don't try that "I don't have the money" BS, the increased reliability and potential of the motor far outweighs the difference in cost so much its worth selling bone marrow and maybe a kidney for.

      the rebuild wont really come into play much unless you are talking about increasing the shot..if you have some good experience running dry then i say go ahead..make sure your car is ready to handle the extra torque..id say get a torque arm, LCAs, and a poly tranny mount..if you do not already have these..you're also going to have the possibility of backfires..so a window switch wouldnt be a bad idea..and that fuel pressure safety switch is going to help a lot more on a wet kit since it reads pressure at the fuel rail..with these things in mind..id say start off with a 75 shot

          sounds like you ran lean man..check out that fuel supply..make sure the fuel filter is good..you're gonna definitely want an aftermarket pump either way..and running dry you'd wanna look into bigger injectors too..another good thing about running wet..no need for bigger injectors
