love this build thing is a monster question is where did you guys get that valve cover?

The valve cover we make here in house! The cost of building the valve cover is $299. Thanks!

Would you guys be willing to make a twinscoll manifold for a d-series i am going for a 500whp goal but would like a little bit quicker spool up or just an idea on a quicker spooling turbo for that type of build

that is just bad ass man i thought d blocks were next to nothin till i seen what can be done and the comment was kinda right the price was next to nothin its really cheap for the most part and im doin a vitara buil myself it dont have as much on it as yours but i hope that it hangs and i thought i had to swap axles but i gusse it will hold after what i jus read wicth is nice less money spent well i hope one day i will be able to take mine on the track hopefully soon well keep up the work man cause that is jus bad ass and it has inspired me to keep the d block and jus build so keep on keepen it real and maybe one day i will race you on the track lol well good luck and have a blast

That is a really nice kit. Is that something you guys would sell as a kit to us consumers?

man love the build and im building my y8 right now with vitara and fjt rods… but i am having trouble trying to find the zex 59500 cam… do u think i should use that or the bisi 1.2 turbo cam???
Author comment by vtecjun · May 25, 2010 at 1:31 PM
From our testing the Bisi 2.4 is the best cam for a street car. It all depends what you are building the car for…
