I recently got a set of 8 bolt GN1s as a gift (family gave them to me to help pick up my spirits during cancer treatment) and I have some questions for when I install them.
- What head bolts do you use ... part number?
- Which head(stock GM?), intake gaskets(stock, FP 1200 or FP MS96033) did you use? Do I need exhaust gaskets?
- How much porting is required on the intake?
- Which pushrods did you use ... the 8.85 ones?
- Are the valve springs that come with them ok to use with stock cam for now. I will be updating to the 206 at rebuild time.
- What torque specs did you use for the heads & intake? Is the sequence the same?
I am bolting to a stock block with stock bottom end right now.
All opinions are appreciated.
Thanks,
Paul.
