any ideas on what type of piston I should do, Because Im looking at doing a higher compression motor, but still run pump gas. Ill be running a few gallons of race gas on the hit though.

My engine builder uses Diamond pistons in everything he builds.

im thinking about a 347 build to. But u kno the stock bottom end is good for a 200shot.

^yeah, but nitrous is addicting. I want a motor that can handle a bunch of 200+shots.

awesome build, just wondering if you did any work to the block? did you get it lined or honed?

edit- my bad i see where you said 347 now.

I was looking at going with -4cc valve relief 3.905 bore mahle pistons.

yeah i wouldnt even bother with changing the crank...

but yeah a built 347 will take nitrous like a ****. are you planning on running a two stage set up or just a 200 shot out of the hole?

pending on money when the motor is finished. Im either going to do a 150 plate, with a 50 to 100 nozzle. If I have enough money when the motor is finished, I am going to do a DP kit.

Awesome Builds Guys!!!

Sorry should have went into more detail. I have a TT setup that makes 850 rwhp on the high boost setting...but for normal every day use I don't use the boost controller and with just the 8.75 lbs wastegate springs make approximately 600 rwhp. The tune is setup for the 18# boost setting so the low boost setting isn't really even optimized.

I wouldnt switch the stock crank out on any of these engines. I and about 10 people we have built engine for and with are all high 8xx hp vehicles and are all running stock cranks.

yeah i think its a waste of money. if you want it for piece of mind knowing its completely forged go ahead but if it were me id spend the good chunk of money elsewhere

The money you save you could put into cylinder heads like I did. PRC Heads.
