      I really have no idea but am curious to find out. Wasnt expecting quite that much but it would be nice if it were that high.

        From my adding up and guessing and then derating for transmission yeah ~183 to the wheels. I agree with treeZ24 and onefastV6 (I actually got 183 before I scrolled down to see your post)! It's going to love high RPM's with those ITBs.

        What did you have to do to modify the gen2 valve cover to fit?
        Are those kelly navigator gold tires? hehe.

          I think the stock valve springs are going to be the limiting factor on this engine.

          The Gen2 covers aren't finished yet. The seal area and mounting holes have to be recut to fit the Gen3. Since this project has been dragging along slowly, I am just going to use two painted Gen3 front covers for now.

              CNCguy: Looks really really nice. I would be interested in one of those intake. Did you make the headers too? Think they would fit in a Fiero (headers)? Since your just up the road I'll take the whole thing off your hands. Keep up the good work. Later Rick

                  Getting a little closer now. Still have a couple of things to machine but it does run now. Haven't taken it out for a ride yet but hopefully before too long. Heres a little clip of it idling with 3" open exhaust. Kinda loud.
