because a broken bolt is a bad thing Paradise Racing Pressure Plate Bolts - cheaper and better than ARP JDM Gen 1 GE Cylinder Head w/ Polished Combustion Chambers, Ported/Polished Exhaust Ports - GE because is looks like a stronger mold, polished to run more timing, ported to make more power Toyota Echo Shimless Bucket Conversion -
