I love the attention to deal and the clean install!

The only thing i would done differently is the vaccum port , put the either on the back or the bottom but it looks great regardless!

Forgive my ignorance as I'm new here, but isn't the stock compression 10:1 with a 0.228mm head gasket and does'nt this mean that the 1.6mm gasket will lower the compression to something less than 9:1?

I am looking at something similar on my JZZ31 JDM Soarer and note that you have made no mention of oil squirting to cool the pistons or ARP head bolts or a multitude of other things to strengthen the bottom end. Have these been covered on an earlier engine rebuild or are you going for the NA-T conversion without strengthening the bottom end?

Would be interested in your expectations on power output and driveability as my objective is to make a useful track car rather than a dragstrip rocket.

Picked up a 1993 Q45 throttle body for my FFIM and a TT mkiv throttle cable from driftmotion which is still about 3 inches short so i went to toyota and bought a throttle cable from a landcruiser

The FFIM comes with a accufab throttle body flange which is a little bigger than the q45
