so now that i have some spare time, im looking to rebuild my old 5s...

i would like some comments and suggestions:
this is what i have in mind...

  1. machine block and get pistons accordingly(if necessary)
  2. machine the crank
  3. grind cams if injured
  4. inspect valves.
  5. possibly bigger fuel injectors and a new pump?


(need suggestions of which to get)
  • lighter flywheel
  • lighter crank pulley
  • lighter crankshaft (do they make them for the celi?)


and then just bolt ons...headers, exhaust, intake, radiator etc.


lmk if i missed anything out and if something doesnt sound rite
i need some info of what and where to get them from and then some numbers ill most likely get from doing all this?

well im not looking for anything fast like the gt4 honestly, i know turbo is the best thing, but then i hear that i look reliability....since this is my daily driver, i dont really wanna turbo it since im not so great when it comes to fixing car problems and then i dont wanna pay some mechanic to fix it....


thats why im thinking of doing small mods....


i was always under the impression that lighter pulley and flywheels give u around 12-15 horses?

my goal is about 145-160 to the belt? possible with just these mods?


what if i replace it with a 3gen 3s head?
