        Yep, 0-60 in like 5.4 seconds. 287HP, kinda sounds like the numbers the 3.4 was supposed to do. Plus ours is cast block so the bottom end is alot stronger.

        From my prospective, I've spent $12000.00 on my GTP, and a new GTP is like 44000.00 with tax. So that means I can spend $32000.00 on preformance parts before I start feeling any guilt. Even if I were to buy a new GTP, I would still put like 10000.00 into it anyway. So that would raise the bar to 42000.00 in goodies. I think that that is about 3 times the required funds to continuously beat the shit out of a 350Z.

        So that's my philosophy.

            Ya, it's your money. Do with it as you please. It's actually impossible to compare a 350Z to a GTP... two TOTALLY different cars. (Sports car vs. whatever the fuck a W-Body is)

                Insurance companies aren't the word of God you know.

                  Yeah, I did kinda mess it up in here, didn't I?

                  Anyway, I'll let you know about the availability of the valves, with free springs and retainers, early this week.
