These Upgrades Estimate?

Hey, in this video on Youtube. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSw5YZy_OYo)

A guy does a tire burnout in a 93 Yota with the following upgrades: K&N drop in, EB's Over sized valves, springs, RVcam, LC's header, 2.5" Magnaflow exhaust, 4" procomp stage II lift, 4.88 gears, EZ locker up front, 33's.

I was just curious how much some of these ugprades cost.

I have a rough idea of most of them, just the following I have no real clue.

EB's Over sized valves
springs
RVcam
and EZ locker up front

I know that theres probably no way to get quite the right amounts without knowing brands and where they purchased, but I was hoping that someone could just give rough estimates maybe or point me in the right direction of where to look to find out. I just dont know what to search for on Google to find quality products/prices. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Didnt watch the video.

Front locker has no effect on a rear wheel burnout - cost $0
Off the cuff - a locking Diff - $200-$300 (not counting installation costs)
Search for LockRite or Aussie Locker or "lunchbox locker"


Valves and springs and cam - see enginebuilder's site http://www.engnbldr.com/

The parts are useless without machine work to get them to work in the head,
Lets just say $750 or so for starters - probably more like $1000 if its a 22RE head
Boy was I wrong - $500 for a street RV head.
Where were they 10 years ago when I blew the head gasket?

BTW - video can be deceptive - what tires was he running?
Did he cheat and drop it into 2WD low?

Im too old - I think the vid is oh - something that thought was cool when I was 16....

yeah - classic trick is to put the truck in 4WD-LO but leave the front hubs unlocked.... very easy to get high revs and break the tires loose.

Its a one wheel burn out - obviously no ez-locker in the rear...

None of the burn out shows me that the truck's motor is "powerful"...

Just that there's not much traction.....


---

back in the day - the trick was to do this in 4WD LO so that BOTH the front and REAR would smoke
- best done with OPEN diffs so you WOULDNT get any traction.....
- would beat ANY car for the first 20 feet....

Not that *I* ever did that.... I never owned a cornbinder...nope...

Thats weak sauce. A one-legger...a Geo Metro could at least chirp one tire.

he's on a sandy road and no rear locker.

probably in 4low and has 4.88's so thats nothing special.

its a blue truck

I can chirp the tires but not smoke them on clean dry pavement with 4.10's and a truetrac and 75% tread dunlop mud rovers, siped.

The vid is decieving.

I can spin mine up through 1st into 2nd on wet pavement with the 31's, 4.10's and the truetrac.

Um, he used the brake. Not only would any of your trucks do this exact same thing, he could have done it with even bigger tires than he has on there.

Just dump the clutch and slam the brake and the tire will roast away.

I can do that on wet pavement lol. My truck hates the rain. I went up a hill from a red light the other day and my tire broke loose so I nailed it and got them to spin at like 80ish in 4th, hehehe. Probably not a good idea though...

you should be able to do a burnout like that in any vehicle with a m/t.

I agree - I can do that in my '93 P/up - 35" m/t's, v6, 4.88, 5 speed - just slip the clutch and I can spin until I let up....

not sure how your having trouble with this - even a 22re will spin em...
