X2, still got the wagon or is it's engine going in this
P.S. if you've still got the wagon , like a few of us got more money, time and space than is practical. Hang on I mean lots of projects = no money, time and space

Id do the cam n heads on the stand before fitting the motor man? Or can these really go a low 12 with stock cam n heads?

I know I'm 200kg heavier having a Caprice but I made 260rwkw last time slightly detuned and when the motor goes back in with a 3.5k stall , cam , shaved heads , aftermarket manifold , otr and all the same exhaust stuff as you n hoping for 280rwkw and to just break into the 12s with a sedan I thought you'd need same Power to drop half a second?
