L33 Boost build hi guys
im starting to build a L33 for boost for a street/track car
very ambitious goals are up to 1200hp on the track with high Psi and 700 on the street..lol
im working on the internals now
i want to use the stock bottom end and rods/pistons
what products you guys recommend as replacement for the worn
Main bearings
Rob bearings
and Piston rings (file to fit?)
Do you recommend other Main bolts than the stock ones? ARP?
i have not decided on Cam or Turbo yet But i would like to run a Single turbo Setup S480 is putting me probably in the ballpark i guess?

Agreed.700 is one think but 1200 is quite another. OP, the Summit Pro LS forged pistons were designed for exactly this. At about 1000whp, we'd like to see the customer upgrade to the .200 wall 9310 tool steel pins, but other than that...they are perfectly suited. As for bearings, Clevite H Bearings are preferred by most professional engine builders.
