oh duh. no arp head studs either glad to see someone else isn't feeding into the theory that the stock block can't handle high boost. I want to tune my car to a similar boost curve but the stock clutch wasn't having it.

That sucks dude.. hopefully they used a flatbed.

Gotta be careful around boston, even though people say you can park there half the time you can't. I've had one cop tell me I could park in a spot and then the next cop ticket me for it.

Bill and I both run exactly the same boost curve but we both DO run ARP head studs, stock connecting rod bolts and main bearing cap studs though.

never heard of people changing out the main bearing cap studs. I think the rod bolt failures are more due to rpm than cylinder pressures. I would like to do head studs but i am worried if i pull my head it wont go back on stock

Oh, and Kenny linked me to some super sweet news pertaining to David Carradine...apparently he likes to choke himself as well during his sexual endeavors like I do. My guess there were Thai hookers involved at some point
