Default ***4-Sale Cartek Turbo Cam and AFR 225 Heads Track Proven 9.3 at 149

The cam is a Cartek custom grind turbo cam ( hydraulic-roller ) .580 lift , the heads are AFR 225's 72cc worked by Cartek , heads are complete with 2.055/1.60 valves , inconel exhaust valves , bronze guides , 921 springs . These are the same heads/cam I ran on my big bore 388cid single turbo set up that ran 9.33 at 149 , and last year went 9.5 at 146 de-tuned on top of a Cartek 427 , the heads are ideal for a 4.125/4.130 bore . Package price is 2,300.00 , save yourself time and guessing , these parts are track proven and in excellent condition . Contact Cartek at 908-317-4496 if your interested .

The reason I am selling is my C5R block has a small hairline crack in one cylinder after 4 years and a few hundred 1/4 mile blasts , and I was told it would be 2-3 months to fix and it was almost the same price as a new block , so I bought a bare LS2 block ( thanks Howard ) and I'm having Cartek build me a new 402 turbo motor , going with heads designed for a stock 4.00 bore , as well as a new Cartek hyd-roller turbo cam matched to the new heads .

I'm also selling a set of Diamond turbo pistons -32cc dish and 4.130 bore , set up for a 4.00 stroke and 6.125 rod , they have coated tops and skirts , pistons are in perfect condition 400.00

Hey Mike , I was at Cartek yesterday , they were working on your turbo beast . No , my car is not for sale , that's an ECS car in ND . Can't wait to see your car bust the 7-second zone .

Hey Mike wouldnt it just be easier to sleeve the one hole and put it back together?
What are doing now,a 402 with the same basic setup?
I'm sure it'll fly,everything u built has so far

Hi Joel , I could re-sleeve it , but at the time I was told it would take 8 weeks or more to order the sleeve , and I wouldn't trust it with more boost , I never ran more than 13lbs through it , with this set up I want to eventually run 20+ if this system is up to it . I wanted to go with a smaller bore this time for more durability under high boost , the C5R block with a siamesed bore really isn't ideal for boost , it was built by GM to be a 900HP NA block .

I'm using my existing rods and crank in the new 402 , still rear-mount single turbo , stepping up from a T4-GTS76 to a T6-T88 , and a bigger FMIC , and put in a new 4L80E trans , looking for 8.99 timeslip with a car I can still drive on long highway trips and back and forth to the track .
