Last year I rebuilt the motor in my piece of crap saturn. I had six burned valves and it wouldn't even make it up a hill! Only 98,000 miles on it. My parents had the head replaced twice before I got it! Well, make a long story short, it now has 11 to 1 compression, 2.5 inch exhaust, port and polished head, adj. cam gears, aem cold air, heavy-duty diff., ported and polished intake and throttle body, etc. It is set up for a 50 wet shot (3 step colder plugs and timing adj.) Everything looks stock ;) . It is a 5-speed. I actually didn't really spend much over 2 grand doing all that too! Its my beater car and we have a love hate relationship. :D

Building the Tom Henry RS
Part 4: Suspension Mods, Tires, Wheels, Headers and other Cool Stuff.
By: Hib Halverson
At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6.
Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...02-07-2020, 10:30 PM
