I think your selling your setup short with the Skunk stage 2's, go for the skunk stage 3's

The compression should be around 11.6:1 I was thinking of the skunk pro 2 cams. They have almost the same profile as the original stg 3's and I believe they still do a rebate on trade ins. Unless of course anybodys up for a trade for some stg3's.

As promised new pictures have been posted in the original post.woo:-)

looks good on paper bro. i think u should have went a lil bigger with the bore or stroke. theres only so much u can expect from a 1.8 even with all the bells and whistles.

good luck with it.

Its about 1868cc but I didnt really want to spend that much money on the build. If I wanted to go bigger on either bore or stroke I would have had to get a lot of aftermarket parts. Dont get me wrong I would love to dump the money into doing a full build but thats not where all of my money can go. Thanks man and check back for the assembly pics after thanksgiving.
