If you want I can clean up the heads for you a little.

if you were think of ported or better heads? shouldnt you atleast get headers? i still think you should leave it "stock" and see just how fast you can get it with "free" mods!!!

I just meant clean up the castings really. Maybe port the stock exh. manifolds?

thats what i was thinking, stock cam and stock 853s. dont have money for headers and still think it can go quicker the way it sits with a good clutch. after replacing that bent pushrod the car felt like it ran even better than before.
