The cam supported 538. The main difference will be the heads, CAI, and possibly compression?

 

I didn't think there would be much love for a old 5.7.....lol


Yea darth that's the basic differences vs your h/c motor.

 

Hey any new thread around these parts is nice these days lol. I'm partial to a strong ls6 myself. I recently sold mine, so I will have to live vicariously through yours. Get some track times already!

 

He is going to gape nerds with it

 

it should be strong. I would like to see him add 250whp of gogo juice just for good measure

 

I am currently installing on my sbe ls1 mamo 220s, mamo msd, and a llsr, so I’m very interested in your build.

I’m an A4 so I won’t put down as much power as you will.

 

Oh man that sucks. Loved seeing your results with the ls6!

Why did you sell yours? Bigger project?


DOH!! Idk about a 250 but some spray could happen at some point. It's pretty much set up for na on ring gaps.

oh cool....i think that was a similar set up to what darth had depending on cam.

 

Yea i sold it while the motor was still strong and worth something. I had been spraying it with a 250 shot for quite awhile and it never skipped a beat. Built a forged 6.0, big heads, super vic, twice as much spray. The stock ls6 was great and it had more in it. just didn't want to end up with a worthless pile of scrap at the end of it lol

 

Ok...so you still have the car then. That 6br0 gonna be nasty with all that spray.

 

Awesome. Good luck with that. Strong setup and the A4 should scoot. I had the same with a built bottom 4" stroke for a short while.

 

Yes. Yes I agree

 

Yeah it is. Specs are 236/242 lift is .640/.647

 

How high do you plan to spin it?

 

Idk.....looking at darths dyno it should peak right at 7k rpm. So whatever produces the best results after that. Engine should be fine to atleast 8k rpm. A good guess would likely be in the 7400-7800 range depending on which gear I'm shifting from.

 

Sweet, happy to see you getting back at it! I look forward to seeing your results.

 

what you got in that thang? a 302?

 

Yes!!!

Thanks Tang!

 

CumminGs swap ftw

 

The good ole trusty 5.7 😎

 

Lol.....yup. They don't get much love anymore
