Default Lq9 tsp228r
Well I'm fixing to order a tsp 228r. When I do the swap I was gonna pull the 317 off and shave them 30 and do some hand porting.

You guys recommend some keys areas on a 317 to touch up or a better cam? It will have a 3600 to 3800 shortly.

You could get away with a little less converter with that cam. Or you could go with a bigger cam with that converter... I think it will be a tourquey **** with that 228/228

Well a 3600 most likely. Also it's getting head studs and I plan to hit it with a 175 to 200.

I was thinking a v3 and John at tsp recommends it but I'm worried about piston to valve clearance after shaving the heads

Your 3600 will flash like a 4000 on a sprayed hole shot...
