S400sx-80 V3 billet wheel 5.3 build
Here's the detail on my build. This will be a street/strip ride. Shooting for around 1000whp on E85. Would like to see how much it will make on kill or before it pushes water. I'm new to forced induction so please critique my build!

10pt cage in process
5.3
New cam bearings
Stock crank 3.622
Lunat proi billet 6.125 rods w/ ARP bolts
3.780 Wiseco flat top -2.2 pistons w/ GFX rings and tool steel pins

3 bar map
Wideband
BOV (JGS/Tial 50mm?)
Wastegate (JGS/Tial 50mm)

I will be using stock manifolds with v bands and custom tig welded 304 ss hot side and aluminum on the cold side.
I look forward to the feedback guys. Pictures coming...

Subscribing! I'll be building a very similar setup with a 1.32 AR v3 wheeled s480 from forced inductions on an almost identical bottom end, but I'll be running a th400 with a PTC converter.
This will be my first auto build, as I've ALWAYS been a die hard manual guy!

How far are those pistons out of the hole with a 1.300 compression height on a 6.125 rod? Or do they make a set with a 1.130 compression height?
Edit: nevermind I see they make a 3.780 bore with a 1.11 compression height..

Looking forward to results. I'll be doing the 84mm v3 billet on the 5.3 I'm forging. I'll retire my ls1 when I get enough parts together to start the tear down.
