    Update on the build, found out the heads were leaking. Don't know if porting can cuase a leak. The guy I bought them from stated they were ready to install. I didn't get them checked before the porting. So I bought a brand new set of 243 heads that will get the 225 full cnc job from advanced induction. I will get them to match it to my fast intake and tb, which are both 102mm. So it will be postponed till they get back.

    Man those FAST intakes are huge. Sorry to hear the heads were muffed. Looks like you are going the right direction though. In for the updates.

    Oh yeah I cant wait for it to be done either. Well I wasnt paying for the heads specifically to be ported it was part of the build and install. So the guy putting it in will end up compensating me. Now I dont know how much a stock bottome end can take, I've read that they can handle up to 500 hp.

    Lots of guys running lots of boost and a lot more than 500hp. The stock bottom end on these are very very strong. I would suggest running some ARP rod bolts but besides that you should be fine on the bottom end.

    Sounds like a nice build! Personally I would have went with a cam that had some more lift. Other than that it sounds good!

    @kerrige-I was going to run the arp rod bolts but I didn't, what if the rods are the cracked kind of rods can you still use the arp bolts?
    @00shortbox- I might Advanced Induction to spec me a cam to match the heads.

    Honestly I don't understand what you mean, but I am pretty sure all stock rods have an option for ARP rod bolts. Its all you really need, until you start making some serious power.
