Yes, they will bolt in directly, BUT the valve springs must also be upgraded and the cylinder heads should be pulled to do this, and at the same time our sever duty valves applied.

I don't like to add RPM or more aggressive cams to engines with unknown springs and valves, thats recipe for a failure.

Jake, sorry I never got back with you as I am the architect guy with the low mileage red 01 s that sent you an email a while ago.

I know you're being questioned out the wazzo here, but I'm pretty much sold on your service. You definately know your stuff, and you are only 300 miles from me.

With that being said and you knowing my situation as it stands, what would a good budget number be with me bringing my car to you guys and basically providing my engine to you for rebuild from 3.2 to 3.6? Also, how long would it take? Please send me a pm if you don't want to post up.

Any test mule guinea pig hook a brother up discounts would be greatly appreciated...haha

Jon
