If you went the ebay route you could always sell ur current y8 head after the new ones installed and get some money back for it if that makes sense. Could be cheaper that having yours ported, rebuilt, and such ???

Eh I'd be wary on the ported ones on ebay, unless they can prove they were flow tested. It is one thing to p&p a head and it is another to do it right.

For your rear sway bar, did you get pu everything? I grabbed a teg sedan rear sway bar from the junk yard (14mm) but I didn't take any mounting brackets. So I need the subframe mounts as well as end links.

unfortunately it may be a little bit for another update, my grandmother past away last week and was only able to work 1 of the 2 weeks on my paycheck, most of it has to go to bills and the rest is gas money til next paycheck.

Sorry to hear abour tour grandma.

Going back to your sway bar, where'd you get the d brackets? The one that the sway bar bushings bolt in to. I'm probably just going to order some Blox endlinks, but I need the brackets. They are like $35 on majestichonda.
