    Engine Trickflow Fit Ordered, What Else?

    I was amassing parts to do the build on my 91, mainly because the oil pan leaks like crazy so I'm pulling the motor to get everything sealed up. figured as long as its out, its never fun dropping a stock motor back in. I picked up gt40 heads, trick flow upper intake and a few other things...
