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

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

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.
