Listen - if you have a stock bottom end, just bolt it up w/ quality parts... go 404s (cams), Kidd header, S2 IM, NGK colder plugs, shielded short-ram intake and MSPi exhaust into a Vibrant muffler. Toss in a B16 or JDM B16 (lsd > * ) box. (when you do the tranny add a pressure plate and flywheel). Get Scotty to tune it and then spring $300 for a 75 wet shot (street price)... or get a dry kit 50 shot and convert it to wet later (add a noid and a couple more lines). You will RAPE most of the people here w/ "built" and "semi-built" motors and will have more $$ left in your pocket. Some guy w/ a 200hp built N/A motor will likely get his lunch money taken by a "bolt-on" car with a power-adder if you can drive.YES IT IS JUST THAT SIMPLE.
Just make sure that your motor is healthy from the start w/ a leak-down and CR test. On the side... (after you have the above setup on the road) build up a nice head http://www.stewartengines.com/ or http://www.team4piston.com/ (tell Jim @ Stewart's or Luke @ T4P that Baby sent you) and they can hook you up. I say build the 2nd head on the side bc 1) it keeps your car on the road and 2) Jim and/or Luke are slower than average ... but it will be RIGHT the 1st time. They both have O fuckin CD and that's the kinda guys you want wrenching for you if you have the spare time to waste. Your STOCK BOTTOM END w/ one of those heads and the gas will cut heads off all week long. Yall are trying too hard.
