im currently building a 2.o 8v to fit in my nova and looking for any ideas on engine mods for speed. ive got a fast road cam and vernier pulley but unsure what else.
any ideas????:confused:
well i have a 20seh with a 272 cam, r1 carbs, p&p head, 4-2-1 with a 2" exhaust using megajolt for the spark
has your vernier pulley been set up or has it just been put on?

got that. cheers
well apart from getting the head worked on and fitting tb's or carbs theres not much else to do
get your car lighter is another option, more power to weight ratio
