Re: Good way to spend $8,000?
I wouldn't waste my money building up the shortblock if you are sticking with TD04s and your engine isn't broken yet.
If you stay TD04 just pick up some 15Gs for $1500 or $1000 used.
If not get IPS's TD05 kit. The mega buck TD04s do not make much sense from a pump gas (especially 91 octane) perspective.
