engines
i was looking at building an engine for a 98 or 99 gsx i dont have any parts or the even the car. but dsm parts.com has so nice a nice engine and i nice head that i was looking at getting. i was wondering how difficult it would be to build the engine myself? i have some experence on how to build engines. used to do it on small 2 cyl. enginge helping out my dad. but i was wondering if anybody had done this before and if they ran into any problems. i was looking at replacing just about every thing on the gsx.

RE: engines
sure you can build an engine yourself. It will end up being cheaper for you. The main things you would upgrade to have a fully built engine such as the ones youll see from buschur racing is cams, valve springs and retainers, pistons, crank, rods, ect. If you know what your doing then id say go for it. As long as you got the money to do it as well and time

RE: engines
thats a really nice car but if you know you want to build up an engine why not try and find one that is just a shell. And then build a motor, or find one that has a blown motor. Cuz that car is gonna be a good ammount of money and then youll end up spending more.

RE: engines
motor mounts are engine specific. you can find them at www.cimotorsports.net, www.slowboyracing.com, www.horsepowerfreaks.com and several others. that is a nice looking car but if it's stock w/ rims and a muffler than it's way overpriced.
