the water pump went and it lost its water then burnt off the oil and killed the be's so it's not that big a failier just I want it to build a fast road engine and another so I can still use the car. besides 163k miles and 18-20 psi boost dont go together with out a rebuild

What buffy said will help the power make the most power possible but no neccasaraly (sp?) last the longest. I'd do it that way myself :p
