Pinning the crank nut is an interesting idea. I broke several wood ruff keys until I welded a 2x2 pipe on an old damper to lock the motor. Then red loctite and a 6' cheater bar finally solved it. I really like the ss hoses. Nice job!

i know this is super old but i just want to say WOOOWWWWWW.

look at the redline.

too me thats proof the m30 manifold is a massive restriction and there should be
an aftermarket one but there isn't.....

Doesn't the stock one just DIE after 5.5k?

ok, now Im really confused, thats not a 4v engine, holy shit, I missed that big time. That is pretty astounding. 655whp from a M102, thats 3.2l, right? what the fuck. If I has to say, I would say the stock manifold is a huge restriction, in this example.
