lemm no what you guys think

next is all the gaskets and studs and the smaller things
also went to order bearings today and was given 2 choices
oem or H bearings
h bearings being way more expensive and also alot harder
oem should be good enough i would think

looking good. Doesn't matter how the block looks, just so long as she puts good numbers to the wheels, it's all that matters.

hmmmm sorry bud but is that an ebay intercooler. The core looks good but that style of end tanks isn't the best. What size inlet/outlet 2' or 2.5" and how thick is it?
End Tanks like this would flow better
