Good to hear. so how did everything work out with B & A? I was talking with Matt, a while ago and he was talking about how crappy the main cap's where, and how that the head you had didn't look like a ported head at all. Which I thought was pretty weird since you had the ford racing head right? He was talking about how he had to machine down the main caps and bearings to get them within teh blue printed spec and all that. He said that was the main reason It took so long to finish was to get everything perfectly balanced and blue printed, was becuase of fitment issues with teh parts.

So did you stick with the same turbo or you get a bigger one? Also you driving it out to McNews or trailering it?

yeah, and it took a long time also because i had to get FR vaulve springs and they were on back order. and i am going with a turbonetics T3/T04E CBB turbo. im going to be trailering it out there. i drove it to full blown today, it was about 23 miles both ways, and it was no fun at all driving it. staying out of boost is hard!

I'd say No. No tune w/ boost = A Nils.

when your motor blew up under boost it had a tune.
