how much is a v tech head and were can i find one? do i need to do the mpfi swap too or can that wait?
what kinda of gains can come from this basic swap?

A JUNK YARD WOULD BE A GOOD PLACE TO START, PLUS YOU CAN GET THE INTAKE MANIFOLD TOO. SCOTT82 JUST DID A RECENT SWAP, BUT HE BOUGHT THE WHOLE MOTOR, WWW.CJEE.COM.
