How much is that block filler? Can you pick it up at a local auto store? I'm just curious how WELL it works. Oh yea, Good luck on 400whp. Your still mean.

well apparently it works pretty damn well. i mean beau did run 32 psi on a block just like this, with nasty timing advance, so i would say it will take 20-25 psi from a smalle turbo all day long.

For all the people saying they're going to do this, it's not exactly a "street car" mod. You might have overheating issues if you do this to your daily driver.
