VET head gasket bore is 86.5mm, so you may not be able to use +1mm (87mm) pistons with it.

Maybe.. Maybe I want it for me... jk you can have it cheap if you decide to go this route.

I think you ought to be looking for a better header too. A 20V or something maybe I don't know I haven't followed all the headers the last 2-3 years all that closely since I was sans vvl

Remember new ignition components could find you a lot of those ponies you feel you may be missing.

ben, i wont be using the ssac lol gonna sell that thing once i have a 4-1


so guys, sears has the flex hone (ball hones) and they have butt loads of different grit hones, which grit should i get? im just lookin to clean the bore right, so a high grit would work best for that?

correct. higher grit # is less aggressive. i usually use ATF with it. works great.
