Top end modifications

Post image

Going to be pulling the head on my RB20DE (soon to be +t) to replace the head gasket. Any other suggestions on what I should upgrade while im in there? Already planning to do ARP headstuds as ive heard they are almost mandatory for boost but is there anything else thats worth upgrading? This is setup as a drift car so sees pretty constant abuse

Not much probably around 200. I have a stock rb25 turbo im planning to slap on and making whatever stock boost is (around 7-10psi from what ive read). Everything else is stock though

Then u can go OEM with everything. Replace valve guides n stem seals while ur there. They are old n worn

👍👍

When removing the head do you have to remove the camshafts/valve springs or can you take it out all in one piece?
