bruce thanks for the info. I will throw dan an e-mail. He set my brother up with a good mechanic for his (POS in my opinion)lotus. (you didn't heae me say that ) The damn thign was all f-ed up 9k to get her running right again!!!!

So teh 1050 dom and the new cam should be ok huh? As for making more power she needs a dyno run huh. Just get her back in shape put teh blower back on and let teh dyno tech take care of setup? I have never done a dyno run before so what do i need to know?

As for my tailpipes. I am converting them to wet pipes. I have few option to do this. IO might just put plain old H2O dumps in in eth last 4-6 inches and dump a hell of alot of wate rin them to cool and cut eth noise some. Its just too loud. If i am dumping H2) into them an dteh engine is runngin normal will i need to put full on water jackets on? I'm not to worried abotu reversion becasue of teh way i am putting the dumps in. I will post a sketch of the deisgn of them. If the dumps idea doesn't work i am goign to put full on jackets on with dump ports drilled into the inner pipe so the wate rwill flow from the jackets into the main pipe and mix. It going to be tougher to make this but it will cool better.

opinions on that woudl be appreaciated.

Puder, do those pics show the actual design needed with the tailpipes above the headers?

yep my exhaust tipsa re above the rub rail withe manifodl i had 4" spacers between the manifolds and risers. So i needed tailpipes with 2 angles in them. The CMI exits angle down. So the first piece is short and connect the tailpipes and has abotu a 45* turn. The middel part about 10" long is where the (jackets would go) get connecteed to the third piece on about a 30* angle to connect to the tips.

My only other option was to glass existing exhuast tips holes and put the tip in lower so i could use standard tailpipes.
Or get super expensive custim height headers.
