Cuckoo, Ignore it. Half the people on here get hung up between 2.25" and 2.5" exhaust systems. Don't expect great things.

What sort of internals are you using?
The intake manifold looks intersting, have you any pictures of it?

Surely the heads have had more then just a cursory glance.
What diff setup are you running? (Spooled BW 8.8?)
Still running the two bolt mains, or gone 4 bolt? (six bolt even??)

More detailed pictures would be great.

Also, With no more information I reckon you'll crack 400-450hp without the No2.

I'd build a killer V6 too if I had the cash and leave it stock height, 15s with hubcaps, looking like a family car inside and out until you look under the hood :p

I love the 2 speed too, I used to have one in my HR Special, even though it was only a 186S with small mods it hit would scream and hold 1st to around 90km when flooring it.

For 17 you are doing pretty well, at that age I had a Datsun 120Y coupe that was smashed up and discarded. A few tech screws, about 10L of bog and 10 cans of export paint I had my first car and it lasted me for 5 years.

If you want to throw out any old parts send a PM :p

I'd love to see a few more pics and a vid too.
