Thanks man, I wanna do this, its been bugging me for a while, and now that I'm on a stint where I can't see the car or touch it, lol I have time to sit down and research and what not, the plan is to do pretty much anything that I want to do with it aka Autocross, maybe drag strip it, and a couple other things, oh and deff car shows. I figure I better get it out of my system while I can before wife and kids happen haha. BUt don't give up on the g bro, stuff happens, but you can't let it get the best of you

to be fully honest I havce the kia head and the machine shop told me that it was a better casting then alot of the motors they worked on and I have the oversized valves in my head.

**Stewi** · 08-16-2011, 09:26 PM

Yeah because its pretty much an EVO casting with a larger combustion chamber volume. If you lay a stock EVO8 head next to a stock 2g DSM head and show them to someone who doesnt know that they came from, they would think the EVO head is a ported 2g head. As manufacturing technology progresses, this will continue to happen. I heard the casting on the 4B11 is superb in almost every aspect.

**Galantman03** · 08-24-2011, 01:27 PM

speaking of combustion chambers, anybody know a place where I can get the chambers cnc'd?

**Stewi** · 08-24-2011, 04:41 PM

For the money you would spend on porting, de-shrouding the valves and CNC work, your better off just buying a cosworth head. You can score one on EVOM every once in a while for about $1500-2000.

**Galantman03** · 08-25-2011, 06:56 AM

Meh... true.. I just would like to get rid of the valve imprints on 2 of the combustion chambers lol. I'll have to keep an eye out

**Galantman03** · 09-17-2011, 11:04 AM

**Blue8g** · 09-17-2011, 12:27 PM

yeah, galantlvr34 nailed it on the head. There is a couple more things, but those will remain in silence. I had this stuff delieved to my rents house, so my dad could check this out for rust issues and send me pictures. He said everything is all surface rust, except for one of the backing plates. So I might have to fill weld a couple spots.
There was one issue that I am worried about though, the diff had no fluid in it at all, just left open, and my dad said it ground when he moved it lol smh... its from an auto too so I was hoping I could use it but idk if its going to be strong enough for the power goals.
As of right now, I'm talking to MAPerformance for the right engine build combination/ what I need what I don't need, and gathering stuff from evom. And right now, I paid for a t/case, but the mother shipped it to another person smh lol great.
