Re: Need gtiso info...
I dont suggest using the GTSIO cylinders like I stated above they flow like crap on a naturally aspirated engine, those intake pockets run deep and cause turbulence and pooling as well, it took alot of grinding and clay to get any decent numbers out of them, we stuck with the regular 520 jugs and g...
