those that I saw in kent are of Vectra 2,0 ecotec. that is x20xev truth? until duration of axis of you elevate serious necessary to use spring valve.

If they are cams for an X20XEV, then yes, they will fit a T20SED.

You need to use whatever the cam company says to use.

Hey guys, hopefully someone still reads this that can help me. Since I'll be using the stock sunbird ECM on the T20SED for now, is it a bad idea to delete the EGR or should it be fine?

Yeah, they've been ported and Im going to do some porting and maybe polishing of my own. 3 angle valve grind (not really performance) 25 thousandths of an inch have been decked off the head to increase compression and the performance cams. I'm redoing my ports to look like gsi_turbo's ports. I'm modifying the manifolds too, of course.

Got more stuff done, take a look at the pics. I think the block looks sexy lol.

-Set crank and got rear main seal in
-Painted Block
-Painted engine bay
-Got power steering rack out and painted the ends of the manual rack. The manual will go in when the paint dries.

Progress...

About to go in.

My modified pieces for different alt setup.

Might be hard to see, but some should know what's going on there.

not the latest pictures either, some wiring is hooked back up, the A/C compressor is back in (can't see that anyway), the starter is hooked back up. The head goes on tomorrow most likely.

things are coming together!

BlownZ's cav is the perfect example of what I want my bird to look like someday soon. Not sure about black wheels and I think I would be keeping my spoiler too, but other than that, it's perfect! I actually saw a Z in town a few weeks ago that looked similar to this as well. I waved like a retard and he just looked at me like WTF?

Thank you. Yes, it is a lot of work. I was meaning to ask you something too, what is that blue thing connected to your throttlebody with the gauge on it?

Plug wires.. 7mm Platinum NAPA wires.. Not sure if you have NAPA there, but it's a parts store in the US. Nothing special, but I do like how they came in blue!
