Thanks!

Yes....the mains and rods are both ARP...

With the closed deck design of the 4G63, it is not necessary to sleeve the block....sleeving is usually done on a semi-closed or open deck (Subaru and Honda motors) to provide cylinder wall strength...

That's cool. Did you upgrade your rod bolts as well? How much power are you going for and on what gas?

I hear ya. Good luck on making some big power!

Our Evo has been "resting" in our garage. We let her breathe from time to time, but ever since I installed a Tial BOV she hasn't been a happy camper and isn't as fun to drive. She needs a re-tune but we don't wanna throw money at her right now.

I have seen shep run 9's on e85, but then again that is Shep the guy can drive with some good tuning you should be able to do 600whp on e85 with the right parts... my friend here in NV did 525 on 100 octane on a Mustang Dyno, ams 35r kit

BTW, where is your local 1/4 track around in SD? I plan on moving to SD area in a few weeks

You can always go run at the real 1/8 track at Barona.
