What do you guys consider "bolt ons" as far as parts

[ezdaar]

I'm curious to what you guys consider a "full bolt ons" motor..

List all parts you consider bolt ons.

Personally I consdier anything you can change or add without breaking the engine down as bolt ons. IE: Headers, intake, exhaust or anything else where the engine doesn't come out of the truck. If you have to remove or break down the engine or have to fabricate anything then it is more than a simple bolt on to me...

any external mod.

No modifications necessary = Bolt on

some CAI's take modifications

In the F-Body world, I always considered Intake, Header, Exhaust a full bolt on car. I guess I would look at a truck the same. Pretty much your main performance modifications before actually tearing in to the motor.

No external power adders e.g. turbos, superchargers, nitrous. Intakes, manifolds, throttle bodies, longtubes, exhaust are ok I would even consider a built trans to be a bolt-on to some extent.
