Just a small update because I felt like it's been a while, I am trying to buy the brackets and pulleys for the Top Swap from a guy off of ClubGP, just waiting to see the condition they are in and if they were bent when he took them off, etc. If they are in poor condition I will just be ordering SpeedDaddy headers off Ebay. I have heard that they are are a pretty well fitting instillation as far as aftermarket headers go, but that they tend to hand a little low in the downpipe area, which kind of makes me nervous, but we will see how it goes!

Revision: I have decided to drop the rockers and go for a VS cam from ZZP. I was unable to find the 1.95 Yella Terra roller rockers I wanted, so I've moved on to the VS. I'm going to be using L76 springs and retainers. The cam is designed to be very streetable and still not jeopardize the longevity of the vehicle. I am excited for this, but I am not excited about the install. With this I will run a 3.4 pulley (unless I can be convinced to go smaller) instead of the 3.5 I was planning on with the rockers.
