camaroanderas,

Looks like some good times out there in the land of the Sweeds. I think it's so cool to see you guys into American muscle cars and your car is certainly without a doubt very very sweet. Also I & I'm sure all the guys here appreciate you sharing the pyramid ring seal design. Although it had to be explained a hundred times, your patience in doing so was also much appreciated. Look forward to seeing the progresses you make with your car. And thanks for posting the videos!!!

We have tested the most in gaskets on all bmw engines we build. And pyramid rings is the best, so why not use them on V8 engines

more info please... So can this be done to an Alum block like a ls1/2/3? Is this ok for daily driving? Does anyone know of an engine builder in the US that's capable of performing the work? I would prefer HKE.

It seems to be as simple as bore the engine the size you want, then start to bore the engine to the size and depth of the ring. 30over approx!!

Any update on whether this will work with aluminum blocks?

I would think that it would as long as you have enough sleeve to go out another .030.

What I would really like to hear an update on is the new setup with the Edelbrock intake.

First race is 15:th of may. Then you will have a race report
I´m changing to 3.73 ratio so i can tune it a bit more on my dynapack bench.

How thick are the LS1 sleeves? I dont have a block right now to measure.

camaroandreas

Nice update! You don´t have to machine your block. We have ordered gaskets with built in cutting rings. In a couple of weeks we have them in: 4.0" , 4.030" , and 4.060" bore.
It´s the same gasket that people use on 4 cyl 1000 hp engines.

Awesome, have you got a price for those?

so they will cut in both directions? so the block and heads will need to be decked every few times the heads are pulled? if the ls9 gaskets don't hold i will probably go this route.

camaroandreas

They don´t cut into the block. It´s a flat surface towards the block. You need to machine the heads every 2-3 times you pull them off.

Price isn´t set yet. I will post pictures and price when i recive them.

Thats a interesting part! I'd be interested in those

......................no more machining the block.....no more receiver groove and no more relief groove to the exterior of the block from the chamber.........

I'm reading a simple "pyramid gasket" that cuts only the head is going to be used to yield similar ~1300 fwhp results on a 6.0 ???

Can't wait for pics/update !

Please keep me posted, Im really interested. I think my truck would be a great test bed for your gaskets. Im trapping 143+ MPH in a 4900LB 4x4 truck. 317 heads, Iron 370, PT88, with a GT91 in the works
