Hey Everyone,

I've had some requests to post pics of my 3.4 DOHC, so I thought I'd post some that I have from when I was finishing building it.

I'll add more soon..........

That isn't powder coat.

I painted it, etc but with special prep work, it took weeks to do!!!

[d.o.h.c]

No shit, that 2 stage paint? Looks like you ground it down, then shot base and the 40 gallons of clear. Looks great.

I ground the WHOLE intake till it was smooth as glass, preped it with with a special zinc self-etching primer that is made for aluminum, then put down 4 coats of base, with 5 coats of Very High Temp. gloss.

It was a ton of work.....

[d.o.h.c]

Wow, thats pretty sick. Can you do that for members? I would love to have some stuff done thats super glossy. PM me.

[HayesPerformance]

Yes I can.....

That is what we do.

The biggest factor is what the surface of the product is like before a person starts....

What can I say but really impresed , Im looking to rebuild my mid year 95 GTP , got too many ideas . I'm still not sure if the 95-96 have a forged bottom end as pre-repoeted on the Angel site ( RE orginally designed and certifed at 280 Hp) , anyone know if any of the bottom end components are forged ?
Also I keep thinking (too much) about a complete drivetrain workover using Full TIme AWD drive setup stolen from an Audi or something similar .
If the bottom end is forged why are we not turning out over 300 ? .
IE The 1.8 litre 4 Acrua uses a forged bottom end that can handle up to 400Hp .
I stiil think the 3.4 is monster just waiting for the right parts.
When I first got mine , I dusted a twin turbo Stealth and an M3 like they where nothing , and mines AUTO . Also someone indicated that Auto's use up as much as 25 Hp , sorry this is not possible unless you've got major sludge in it. Average loss is around 8 Hp over standard , also if controlling shift on these auto's is as easy as a quick pump with your right foot , I know for a fact I can shift faster than stick !.
Yes I must be nuts , just bought the wife a 95 Cut Int 3.4 , very low millege and looks like it just came out of the showroom 35K .
Cheers ARG

ARG: you should expect a 15% Drivetrain loss MIN with an Automatic.

As for the bottom end I have no idea.
