    245/260

    How hard would it be to change a 245 carbed 2.5 to a 260....how much money in parts would I be looking at ....would it be better to just look for a 260 power head ?

    Could always laser inject your 245.....then you only have to switch the intake, so the powerhead doesn’t have to come off and be split. Would run good I’m sure.

    Jeff Dunn in SC can machine a 2.4 or small bearing 1/2 to fit.

    I agree, just get a brucato and go. I have several injector setups if you go that route.

    Yep! Combine it with one of Dreifort's new intakes and you'll have a great setup
