Hey guys,
I have to remove my enigne for a stupid reason (too long to get into) not my fault but still a stupid reason. While its out what types of things should i do just to improve it for when it goes back in eg. parts or just refurbishing things so they work better later. Any suggestions would be great

remove the power steering and A/C

less weight/pull on the motor is always a good thing. I think the car handles better without the power steering(the steering wheel doesnt drift at high speeds like it used to). but to each his own...

the hp should even really matter its estimated 5hp, more than likely less. anywho, how much better does the car handle? i hate how it picks up at high speeds, makes the car feel unsafe

torque steer gets unbearably tough to deal with when nearing 300hp. trust me it almost killed me. keep the PS in if you are going with a high hp fwd car. unless you have equal lenght drive shafts dont do it!!
