What to do?

Option 1
Pull the focus into the garage and tear down, swap on the SVT manifold, after I go through the head (port/polish, my usual stuff/secrets)

Option 2
Pull the Conquest into the garage to re-re-do the HG. Swap the crappy MLS for the copper and ARP studs, and do a little more head work.


Both options will run about the same as far as cost. The focus will probally take me a little longer being I have not doug that deep into one yet. Conquest would be a breeze, had that thing appart too many times last year.

With a group of Foci owners, we always vote for the Focus.

I'd say the focus. But you'd have to get it re-tuned to run right. which one would be more fun for you?
