Default Rebuilding my LS2 with Maggie 112 questions

Spun a crank bearing, scored two piston walls. So now rebuilding, 5 thousands over and all new pistions, etc. While I am here I will be putting in a new blower cam, had LS6 in there. Since I will be losing some boost with the new cam I plan on changing out pulleys. Going with overdriving the rear, underdriving the crank pulley and then testing the front. Any thoughts here? Trying to get 9-10lbs boost out of it.

Also my fuel system,

I currently run a Walbro 255 but looking to add the Racetronix Hotwire Kit or?

I have the bosch 280150558 injectors which are 42lbs and believe they came with the maggie. Should I upgrade these to 60lb ones or???

I am looking for 600-650 out of it.

I think you need a bigger blower.

Who did the install and dyno tuning before the engine failure? What HP level were you at back then?

It was built by a crate engine builder out in CA. I don't think they dyno each motor and they send it out with their secert tune (password protected).

So now I'm starting from scratch and trying to do it right.

Very few shops these days lock their tunes, that just isn't right!

supersub on here, (Ray) can probably tell you what pulley to use. Bob

Agreed and couldn't believe it when they told me. I am not the original purchaser so I would not have gone for that but it is what it is.

I have a very reputable tuner near me that will do the tune after rebuild.
