The Start of the Build
So I've been getting parts in left and right from various places and its about time I start installing everything. I've got the motor out so I can have the transmission rebuilt and the engine bay painted. I have been looking at some Crane Cams 431-0012 the nitrous profile because I will be running a 75 dry shot. I'm curious to know if anyone has heard good things about these cams. I have heard to avoid running crane springs due to prone breakage. Does that leave me with just Crower springs? I Have also heard of AEM cam gears failing and I would have thought there product is a higher quality then the OBX and the Fidanza. So what exactly does that leave me with? My last question is If i took my motor into Road Race would they install new valves, springs, cams, water pump, and timing belt (maybe Illeagle can chime in) ?
Just a couple of parts I got in and snapped some pics. Advan A13's 245/40/18, Ported intake manifold, AEM V2 intake, DC headers (halfway wrapped I got lazy and started getting to itchy)
Zex Dry 75 shot, MSD DIS-2
Cleaned up the ebay real quick clean more later then paint.

did you only port the inlet side or the intake runners as well? crucial do not forget the cam gears but its kind of a chance with any company you gotta take your chances and take your losses sometimes shit goes good for you and others dont id recommend aem but make sure to do their "break in" procedure when its time to do your timing
