Bump! Just reviving this thread. I'm curious too how the 'new' engine is doing after it's rebuild and Mansi upgrades!

It's doing quite well. Good performance upgrade, not drastic but more power. I have yet to get another dyno-test to see how much it has improved however. One main improvement is his oil pump which does not leak! I've got the transmission out right now and will have a newer one in by the end of the week hopefully. Old automatic trans was having trouble going in reverse and shifting when cold. The only other problem was intermittent cutting out of the ignition which I finally traced to a bad ECU wiring harness. That will be replaced as well during this trans swap.

Once all this is done I will get another Dyno. It's only been what, a year?

Bump! Came across this thread and I think there's more to add to the story I'm hoping by now the heads and engine/tranny are back and all is running well. So, how are those heads working out now? Still happy with the investment?
