New Valves- Ceramic coated faces and dry film coated stems

Head Studs
Soon to have first set of Harland Sharp Custom Roller Rockers

Exhaust
All Castings Ceramic Coated
New Up Pipe Castings

Misc
Custom Intake
Custom Turbo in Factory Location, A3K
Powerstroke Intercooler
Heavy Duty Tranny Cooler
G code Injectors set to 2300 psi
Upgraded Fuel System, 180cc DB4 pump on order
Everything cleaned and repainted
