upgrade

go for it whack a turbo on 1hz ,but make sure you replace big end bearings. for that kind of coin you could put in 350 chev crate motor with adapter and all the good shit and still have 10 grand change,more money than sense.

bolt length

mine is 100mm but i have 3 inch lift, buy them and trim to size, cheaper than trying to buy odd length. 4 inch grinders work well on 40s

stick with the 80 if you go to 90 or more you may end up with a lot of crunching.
