 whats about the limit on mods... Whats about the limit on mods before reliability is really compromised? I see a lot of people with exhaust carb cams and head work (stage 1) but how reliable is that? Ive heard and read that cams really affect the reliability

Re: whats about the limit on mods... Stage one engines are more reliable than stock in most cases depending on who's stage one you get, when you start getting Crazy with internals and dual carbs and 7000's when you start compromising, main thing is to keep rpms under what it can achieve

Re: whats about the limit on mods... Yea I'm definitely set on the GTR so whatever mods I do it will be done to that motor... I'm thinking exhaust, head work, carb and maybe a cam would be the most...

Re: whats about the limit on mods... Stay like that, or possibly without the carb, & it'll be good for a long time.

Re: whats about the limit on mods... I don't know I've always been told that cam's effect reliability.... And does a carb effect it more than cam?

Re: whats about the limit on mods... Yep, carb does away with govenor & leaves room for you to blow it up.
Cam does affect reliability. Makes it more reliable.
