Yeah... I went overkill with the pulley. I messed up the 3.4" I originally bought trying to install it so I figured if I am gonna spend another $50 on a new pulley I should go even smaller ( dumb on my part) but my plugs are 3 ranges colder than stock and when I scanned it with the tech 2 at work at 80*F I only had 4*KR with the engine warm at almost 6k rpm but I am definately due for some TOGs. I try not to drive hard when it is way hot outside... I also want to do a cam or IC are the 1.9 rockers any comparison to a full cam swap? they are definately cheaper and easier

no such thing as "only" 4* KR.

With plugs 3 ranges colder than stock (TR7? AL102?) they must foul pretty quickly under normal driving conditions.

The luck is definately being pushed to its limit, eh?

If he drove for more than a day on that setup, he's extra lucky.

1.9's dont make MUCH difference...they gained me like .7mph i think?

cam swap OWNS rockers any day. but shoot, i can change a set of rockers in 2 hours....took me two days to do my cam....
