That's cuz we were messin with ya. We didn't take it serious because you didn't take it serious, you didn't even bother to say what car this engine is in .
Auto or manual ? Stall speed ? What valve springs ? Timing set, oil pump, push rods ?
250 shot tells us you need more exhaust duration, LQ4 tells us you can handle more cam than a LS1, 9.1 to 1 tells us you need a bit tamer cam. Is it a daily driver, weekend cruiser or will it spend 20% or more of it's time on a 1/8 mile ? See, it's not a simple answer. The better you describe what you have and what you want out of it, the better someone can help.
forged lq4 (what displacement) with worked 243's (flow #), ls6 intake, headers (what design & size),exhaust (true dual or ORY),and a compression of 9.1 to 1. plan on spraying around a 250 shot, but want it to perform ok on motor, i know i cant have the best of both worlds but what would be the safest on n20 and decent on motor

auto, 364ci, 70% street driving, 243's are getting a serious p/p job, valve springs and stall will vary on the cam, timing set will be ls2 type. I dint think the what car would matter I understand not putting the rest though, I was in a hurry so just put the bare essentials, im not sure what oil pump to run im thinking melling high pressure.
