You should be able to meet your goal I would think.

So your pistons are off the shelf? With the 4032 material and standard wrist pins from AutoTec? I have a PT88 and a LS2 shortblock I was planning on taking to a 370.

To the best of my knowledge that is what I have. At least that's what the receipt says. You might want to rethink boring the aluminum block past 4.005 since the sleeves are pretty thin..

True, probably should have thought about that. If your pistons are holding then thats the direction I want to go anyways.

Went to the track Saturday. Didn't set the world on fire or anything on the nittos. They never prepped the track all day and as soon as the sun went down the track only got worse, but anyways... The best 60' on them was a long ways off from what I was hoping for @ 1.72. Besides the fact that I kept on hitting the overboost shutdown on the eboost I think the car would have trapped over 150mph every time I went down the track with the cutout open which was a bit of a surprise. I was expecting a gain, but figured it would take some effort to get over 150! The only thing the car did consistently this weekend was good burnouts.







Notice I had a little more 1/8 mph in the quicker et pass, but the boost controller shut me down early. I'm will be looking for a new best et next time at the track after I pick up another set of tires. The best mph pass was made on about 20.5 psi peak.
