any way i started to do performance, had a spare head from a 96 cse block that threw a rod, i sent it to the machine shop it was rebuilt all new valves stem seals machines reground the whole 9, sourced a holset hy35 with a spacer and older 9k t3 manifold i was really lucky picked it up for 250 :)

thanks to ray i got the pump fitting i just purchased some 5/16 fuel line fuel clamps and "patched" the line doesnt leak works fine bad pic tho

became a ***** to do the charge pipe i got it custom made with a hks bov welded in http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj33/ovadiwall/IMG_00000089.jpg
thats me, lol now after all this and the mike D tune the car felt MUCH faster very quick but somewhere between people trying to steal my wheels and more needforspeed i put the holset on the front burner.

so i pulled the head to put on the rebuilt, new gaskets and ish! and oops

which is were i am now!
i order the exhaust and tensioner side guide, the lower guide crank/oilpump seal water pump gasket, chain tensioner washer

now i ask is there anything else i should change? i plan to use the other chain i have with 120k on it i sent it to the rebuild shop with the head the man said it was in excellent condition!. anything i should look out for?, change? also what is the chain tensioner spec i heard something about it but i can't find it. thanks in advance
