If Kyle doesn't mind me posting the specs I will or he can himself. I can say he got Brian Tooley "Platinum" Springs though!

well hopefully you got him one spec'd that will get that giant *** turbo spooling up asap. haha. Tooley makes some good ****. His platinums are top of the line, and he is def a guru on Valvetrain. I have some BT Duals myself waiting for when the ones I have now need changing. PRC has .675 on the low when you buy their aftermarket heads from TSP.

Thanks again. And yea go ahead and post them up, i got nothing to hide.

Word on the street is my motor got torn down this weekend, so im going to talk to the tractor mechanic tomorrow and see how it looks inside. Pistons will be ordered soon, still debating on how high to go with the compression.

Indeed it is. although the title needs to be changed because now days he spends most of his time going cumapart heads.

Been scoping out pistons and i was looking at going back to wiseco. Especially the K394X3. Im thinking the heads are 68cc stock undecked. So that should put the compression at 10.8-1. What you guys think?

I just saw a chart today on the manley website and it said -11cc for 10.8 for your setup. You are 4" stroke right?

I'm going to be running between 10.5:1-10.8:1 on my non intercooled S476R turbo set-up I'm building as we speak. With stock un-milled LSA heads and a LS9 gasket it should put me at 10.65:1.

I'll be using E85/E98 with a lot of secondary methanol injection. When I say a lot, I mean it. LOL

Cam specs for this beast are 238/247 .615"/.632" 114+3. Should have a raucous idle that will make anyone think twice about grudge racing this beast unless they come correct! Not only that, I think it will make short work of spooling that itty bitty turbo Kyle has.

Yep RS275 and Ultra Street is the plan. I've already got a lot of the parts I need and Jon@Huron Speed is building my turbo kit for me.

That sounds like you shouldn't be to far behind me, I'm in a mad rush on mine because it had to be done before June 1st for that half mile deal I need to get some testing in. I hope he can make the deadline

I am at 14 months and counting. Cant wait to get it out, put the suspension and seats in, pull the weight, and get a fresh coat on her. The car will @ that point be done.

Did get my engine bay done as well. Hoping after I wash it, the rest of the car doesnt look shitty.
