Re: Engine Valve Covers

I think you want to get the A2 head from a VTEC engine, not sure what else you need, but someone else can chime in on how to do it

Good idea. I heard taking out the axles also causes weight reduction and gives you more HP because the engine can spin more freely lol

Re: Engine Valve Covers

Wheels add rotational mass, hindering engine performance.. You'd accelerate hella faster if you uninstalled them, too

Re: Engine Valve Covers

Oh Boy! Besides, you don't need weight savings when you install NOS in your windshield washer reservoir and put some walmart spinners on that baby.

^I know I shouldn't have.
