I haven't run the stock fan for about a year. I have it on a switch and actually rarely need to run it at all. Next year when I swap to a Holley Sniper and Turbo I will have it control the fan.

I will look at whether it is 1G or 2G cause I have looked at those pistons you talked about. I know I don't want to go too high on the compression as i would like to go boosted. Still wondering if I go turbo or blower that I have... or both...LOL

For sure the balance shafts are coming out and the Jet Valves in the 2.0 L 4G63 head I ported.

Still trying to find someone in Ontario to regrind my cam.
