Sick of being Turbo, Going NA

Good luck with ur project, and I hope it turns out being what you expect, and worth it in the end.
The real deal is total car performance........ I'd be interested in ur 1/4 mile times actually.

All for now really, and before those who didn't read ask, the motor was built and ported by Kahren, he's a member here on this forum, and he does damn fine work.

Just by looking at your ports (especially the exhaust), I can tell you will have a ton of potential with the motor. Good NA's are really fun to drive, every little detail counts, like cold air intake, ported manifold, light wheels, proper tuning, bla bla blah. The ram air intake I made actually gave a slight boost above 60 mph. I had to cut a hole in the box to fit my intercooler, and noticed a slight loss of torque when winding up third and fourth.
100 miles left approximately till 1,000 we'll see what mister tuner Kahren says
For now though I will have to subdue you with pictures :p
OOooo all nice and clean and ready to be assembled
Getting ready to be pieced together
Boy isn't above better than this?
The previous owner of this car liked to drive it through swamps I think.

For those of us lucky enough to forget why I got this rebuild .
This rotor didn't meet the criteria of the hundred point inspection necessary to get put back in the engine.
Adddrriiiaaannnnn!!! Adddrriiiannnnn!!!
Did I say swamp?
After it's brief encounter with an Alaskan Grizzly this housing was out for the count.
