Thanks to you all so far. So far, knock wood, I don't need an upper end rebuild but I do know about the cam when the time comes. I forget the exact model of Michelins I have but they are 7/8's. I do have turbo tie rods. Also the usual SC upgrades: Carrera oil cooler, chain oiler, MSD, AC delete, blah blah. I was just thinking that the SSI upgrade would be noticeable. I have the smog pump belt off but the pump is still there...just in case, and it passes SMOG just fine.
God knows I'd love to do a 3.6 but that's major bucks... Moses was coooool enough to let me drive his at Thunder Hill a couple years back...big time woody then
Thanks again, Mose...
