Another Friggin 5.3 turbo chevelle
#66
37 psi
No spark knock
No specks on the porcelain of spark plugs
93 octane
Wtf?
Second ring butt and broke the ring land. Forged pistons and proper ring gap would be ideal but what is the true limit of 93 octane and how much boost?

Hey FOUROHSICKS.
I was wondering if you could take a picture of the f-body windage tray for me?
I tried to bolt my f-body pan on yesterday only to find it wont clear the truck windage tray. So i made a hole and sliced a small piece on the edge of the tray for the pickup to clear. But the bottom of the pan still hits the tray at the very front two cylinders. I dont know if i can just cut that part off or not.
If you could get me a pick of the one your using that would be great. I hope im not too late.

Actually, i must have jumped the gun. i should have looked at picks first. I just have to cut off that front part of the tray it looks like. Thats nice and easy.
Hope you get yours done soon.

Since I had to pull a piston back out,I decided to pull them all out and open the gap on all the top rings
