I think a lot of L36 owners are interested in engine mods/rebuilds to get more power, so feedback please! Centerforce recommends a 500 mile break - in for their clutch!! Seems like a lot, especially since 500 miles on the highway with no shifting doesnt count.
Which carb did you get? No headers? MJ

Re: Getting My Baby Back Today! (MNJack)
I havent added everything up at this point, but i'm guessing between 6 and 10 grand. As far as the 3.08 gears are concerned I'll have to see how they
perform with the new mods. I'll post more after driving the car. Got the Edelbrock Quadrajet replacement. Decided to stay with the stock exhaust manifolds to keep the car looking as original as possible.
