Are you retaining stock displacement? stroking at the same time to keep lag down
If in america pick up an SEM inlet too

efr 6758 here i come
allready got a sem sorted ;) i spent lots allready on pistons and rods last winter so dont fancy buyin new ones again im using a 82mm bore so its a little more allready, i have ths engine mounts but dont think they will handle the bt so they may be another thing i buy, i want it to be flying by 3500 - 4000 but need more info on the gtx series, so many options available not sure what to choose :( hows your bt setup coming along?

Currently ordering my stroker and it uses the same rods as OE on different pistons and crank so could be picked up cheap
Also vibratechnics engine mounts just been fitted and i can say these are very firm
Dont know much about the GTX series but i think oistein is running a GTX3071R on his LCR
I still think on a 30 series you will struggle to be full chat a lot before 4k
