Mach build plan

[Whiteboy]

that was on CL forever. I really liked it haha
I really think I could make the same amount if not more power than a stock 03-04 motor...plus it'll be lighter and less expensive by 2 fold easily.
The cobra motor has a lot more potential, but i don't have 4500 to spend unfortunately.

sold on ebay 10k

This is how you build a Mach 1

Man that's pretty cool. I have your twin coupe. lol

[crapstang]

Don't waist your money on the spacer it won't do shit for you. Mac LT's are kinda crappy I'd get kooks or hookers, 98 cams won't do anything with out degreeing them right, buy some good comp cams 106100's will work great. That should put you around what you are looking for N/A

get a heaton , not sure why people even try to make a mod motor fast na, its a waste of money and time

For less than 1k in parts it's not bad.
1-kooks might give me a couple (if any) extra hp over mac or even paceshitters. not worth 1-1.2k LOL!
2-98 cams will give me about 20rwhp undegreed, many people have done it. I will have mine degreed regardless, it'll give me a little more power and a better curve.
3-for an extra 15-20 hp, the cost for the comp cams is stupid...plus low end torque will probably be sacrificed. 1,200 bucks?

There are two other people I know of that did this exact build but w/o degreeing their cams (why not? idk) and they are both at 345-351rwhp

Well if you think the 98 cams will give you 20rwhp with out degreeing them you go for it but I will bet you $20 they don't. Dyno the car before and afterwards. I put a set of 98 cams in a guys Mach1 that is on here and his car lost rwhp and tq because they weren't degreed. Well if you don't buy the kooks at least get the hookers that way you can pull the trans if you need to do a clutch job. The comp cams 106100's are provens cam for N/A cars that don't require springs.

I'll try the hookers.
There is no way I'd put in the 98 cams w/o degreeing them...too much work to prove a point or be proven wrong

I've seen guys make high 350 low 360 #'s with those comp cams...I'm just too poor for those. The 98 cams are the cheapest part of my build

Well I hope you are pulling the motor because you can't degree the cams with the motor in the car. You can degree the intake cam but you have to first degree the exhaust cam and get it were you want it to be before you even touch the intake cam. And you can't get the dial indicator where it needs to be on the exhaust cam. JFYI

Hey what should I do with my car?

No you're all wrong listen to what I have to say.

motor will come out when the kmem is being swapped out. I want to do all of the things I can while I have excuse to and the ease of access.

I just wanted to check if anything was majorly backwards with the build plan. I can't afford kooks or comp cams...
The degree/not degree debate is neither here nor there. I WILL have them degreed no matter what, not doing so is just plain dumb.

ex: I did not know that the trans could be dropped with hooker headers, unlike the macs. Stuff like that saves my ignorant ass

I say throw a eaton on it..... Easy and 450rwhp with ease and be a fuck ton more fun.

They can be found for cheap.. I've seen them done for under 1,000

Parts collecting for a heaton swap is a PITA. I'll check SVTP

[91CoupeMike]

Sell your intake and n/a crap such as 98 cams to help fund..

Easy.....

Easy.....

parts are lined up to buy. I've only actually ordered a couple, I wanted to double check the build.

I'll sell a vehicle to fund my project probably

Not really I know Gearheads built some eaton setups with out running the Cobra front pulley setup and timing cover. They had some custom tensioner or something made so it could run with the stock timing cover. The only thing needed was the blower intercooler setup cooling system, HX, and some other little parts. Call Travis or Matt they can tell you more about it. It didn't cost very much at all. BTW stay away from the under drive pullies...

I've heard some bad things about every UDP kit besides the steedas. Piggy backs are ticking time bombs for sure.
Have you seen bad stuff happen to motors with steedas?

I'll check with GH, that is really cool.
