Fantastic thread, well done on the build of what will be a real weapon. Have the engine bottom end checked out though the IV's were really bad for crankwalk.

Interesting thread and project!

Would it not be better to use an Evo V onwards engine though, so you don't get the dreaded 'crankwalk' which Evo IVs are famous for?
