Standard bottom end is still running great and bores looked good when we installed Patriot LQ9 heads. It's had about 10 dyno runs in that time and about 10 1/4 mile passes with a best so far of 10.79@132mph so it's no slouch.
Min Boost 17 lbs max 22
last dyno with T-56 was 825 RWH at 19lbs 5400 rpm on race gas,
Engine is now on E85 with an 4L80E going to dyno again tomorrow.

- APS Twin Turbo
- 7.5 PSI / 554 RWHP / 574 FTLB
- Install turbo kit at ~21000
- Currently at ~46,000
- Motor was fine for nearly 2-1/2 years. I drove through some water and the low APS filters picked up water and hydrolocked my #7, breaking the wrist pin boss in the piston.
Replacing with forged, wet sump LS7 @ 9.25:1 compression
The Best V8 Stories One Small Block at Time
Boost Amount / RWHP: 8 lbs / 475 (Mustang dyno)
Miles on the car when FI installed: 48000
Miles ran since FI installed: 6000
Bone stock '01 long block.
Only thing I have wrecked so far is the stock clutch. That went out at about 4500 miles. Hopefully the rear end will last long enough before putting a 9" in it.
I changed to the SDCE tensioner and due to the pulley ratio difference, I am seeing about 10.5 lbs of boost now. I recently had the car on a dyno and it saw 566 (numbers in my signature). The car currently has about 58,000 miles, or about 10000 since install.
No problems with the short block, yet. I am keeping my fingers crossed for now.
To my understanding ringland damages usually occur either out of poor pcv set up and or running a little lean. The 1st one to go is usually #7
