I thought I would open this post in performance mods since thats what this is. Plus some **** hijacked my last post in GTS/ACR/RT-10 forum ;)


Anyways, I got my Gen 3 heads in yesterday. So far at surface level observation, the main challenges are:

1. Bolt pattern for exhaust. This is minimal challenge, as any local muffler shop (I have a great fabricater near by), can relocate header flanges the necessary amount by cutting and rewelding, figure at most $100 bucks.

2. Power steering pump needs a place to be mounted, not significantly difficult, but a more tehcnical job then Issue 1.
Possible Solutions:
a. Create a bracket using bolt locations already existant on the head
b. Weld on some bossses to mount directly to the head.
c. Create an alumn. plate that can be bolt to the head, and then tapped, or welded with bossess, to support the pump.

3. Water Temperature sensor in the front of head.
Possible Solutions:
a. Possible relcation to somewhere else.
