the s/c noob rebuild thread
ok i have basicly started this for advice and to post my rebuild of my 99 ws6 6sp with a procharger p1sc kit on it
a bit of the back story is about this time last year i sold my 10second n20 camaro and bought the ws6 with 120k on the clock and a procharger on it that had 20k on it
fast forward a 5 months i now have a serious knock coming from the motor and i decided to store it and save to fix it and pick up parts while i am at it........which now in hindsight was a bad idea i should have just pulled the motor
and see what damage was done but welp....i didnt
now here are the parts i have for my buildand this is what i am really needing help with
stock block (IF it isnt damaged)
stock crank
used diamond boost pistons
used manley h-beam rods 6.125
ls6 intake
ls6 cam (really just had this to use with the stock bottom end......but now i can go bigger on this with forged motor so i was looking at like a tr224/224 on a 112lsa or they do have a "blowr" cam also) <<<<help!!!!!!!
obviously i will use arp bolts and get new valve train peices ie. rockers/springs/rods and will be making an apointment with thunder racing to have it tuned
but really guys i know i am a full on squid when it comes to building motors and a good set-up and thats why i am asking for advice on here with some of the best boosted lsx guys
here are some pics of the car
thanks for looking and reading if you still are
chance

Your parts selection looks good, depending on the bore size of the used pistons.
Our blower camshaft works very well with the ATI ProChargers.
