      What are you going to do for a clutch? I am going to get a Spec Stage2. $233 dollars on fleabay.

        I'm thinking it'll sound like a Ducatti

          I think it'll sound even better then a ducati... I already got a stage 2 spec clutch, that was the only stage 2 clutch I could find

            Nice. Have you unpacked it yet and looked at it? I have yet to get mine as I am saving to go visit my mother in New Zealand.

                Balance it? like balance the pressure plate to the rotating assembly? that seems a bit extreme but I dont know that much about balancing.

                  yeah they balance the whole rotating assembly. they do the crank pulley, crank, flywheel, pressure plate. they also balance the pistons and connecting rods.

                      Balancing is awesome. When everything is balanced it makes it easier to get things rotating. It wastes less energy so more power goes into acceleration. Which in theory increases torque. It also increases the longevity of an engine build by putting less strain on parts. It's an awesome thing to do when building an engine.

                      I've been wanting to do a n/a b3 build for quite some time I would love too see how this all turns out. Will you be using the stock computer and injectors etc?

                          I found out through looking at the b3 head and b6 head and that they will bolt up to either block and will work in theory so I took a small chance and ordered the b6 head studs. To my surprise, the worked perfect. The front two studs are almost too long and I think this is due to the b6 head being slightly thicker where the head of the bolt ( or nut, with studs) rests on the head. All of the nuts torqued down fine with no issues so if you plan on boosting at any time I would highly recommend them.

                              Yes especially with 11:1 compression... Thats why I'm interested... I don't know if and when I will boost but considering it, just don't know if it will be too much.. Lol did you see what Matt got with his @ 8 psi... Its insane
