Performance ideas/companies?
Hello all. I am new to this forum. My family has had our 86 420 SEL for some time now, and has since gotten different vehicles. However we still own it. I am very involved in building motors and in the drag racing cirlces (especially Fuel Injected motors) however most of my experience has been with american motors. I will be moving off to college in about 9 months and dont think it feasable to take my old hotrod truck with me. I would like to rebuild (at least the top half) of the engine in the 420 (as it needs it) however I would like to put in some performance parts (camshafts, rockers etc.) and was wondering what companies make performance parts for this engine (which I believe is a 4.3 V8). I am looking for upgrades to any system (exhaust, intake, heads etc.) and figured you all would be the people to point my in the right direction and give me any advice on the matter.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Dylan Long

Also check out the post throughout the performance section on the board. I'd

Ot ?
Is this place legit or just an expensive option?
I noticed the W210 lights there are $600+.
They are much cheaper at many other sites....
