New Goodies Installed :)......
New Goodies Installed :)...... b4 i get into it. found a few things that were bad in my motor.... the pass side head gasket was rusted, in turn leaking some coolant,a lifter in cyl.7 was gouged out in 2 spots causing it to scar the cam. and my springs were shot. i could compress them w/ my hand. and lastly pass side head was warped .012 and driver side was warped .009 so i had them milled to be true again.
ok so what i had installed is as follows,
Comp Cam 236/236 .602/.602 114+2
ls2 timing chain
ls7 lifters
ls6 oil pump
comp dual springs
titanium retainers
SVO 30# injectors
and a base tune by Chummmma to get me around tull Tues when i get dyno tuned.
i had my friend joe prince install everything, and went together very smooth, no snags along the way other then this dam weather.

stock bolts....w/ the rite combo meaning air pressure and speed into the motor, the rods are doing the work pushing down the crank, then the crank pushing the rods up. when you have an offset meaning to little air or too much air, thats when the strain goes onto the rod caps and bolts. and the engine is sucking the piston up causing the cap to have a load on it when its not meant for that. thats the understanding that was tought to me.
were talking about what i did w/ my car, not a discusion on who installed it. but if i didnt want anyone to know then i wouldnt have said it.

I personally wouldn't risk spinning that high (even with an LS6 oil pump), but I'm what people consider a cautious person....6800-7k would be the max I would go.
Also, I believe 98-mid 2000's LSx engines had one type of rod bolt, where late 2000-02's used ones that were a little stronger.
Good Luck with the new setup.
