looking for some input on my setup I am planing on getting in a month Here is the thing. I can only spend roughly $3500 on this setup. I will be keeping my nitrous but will probably drop it down to 75, and 100 when I absolutly need it. I am not sure if I need the timing set, rockers, and lifters I have listed. If so I will either need to save more, or find other parts to use. I know I can use my stock timing chain, etc. but can, and is it a good idea to use my stock lifters and rockers? Just looking for some input on the setup. PaceSetter Ceramic Coated headers with emissions fittings $384.99 TSP 3” Catted Y pipe $349.99 the following parts from http://www.forcefedhighperformance.com Stage 2 LS6 Style, 2.02/1.60, 64cc Chamber Hot Tanked and Pressure Tested Fully CNC'd Intake and Exhaust Ports Hand Finished Intake and Exhaust Runners Polished Combustion Chamber Competition Valve Job Milled up to .030 to increase compression REV 2.02" intake and 1.60" exhaust Patriot Performance Dual spring kit (good to .650 lift) Set all spring pressures and heights Flow bench tested with print out Fully Assembled and Ready to bolt on $1595.00 Comp XE-r 224/228 .581/.588 $395.00 Comp Cams LS1 Adjustable Timing Set $189.99 Patriot Performance Shaft Mount Rockers, 1.7 Ratio $490.00 Comp Cams OE Replacement Hydraulic Roller Lifters, SB Chevy & LS1 $218.99 (what length) Comp Cams Hi-Tech One-Piece Chromemoly pushrods $130.99 SPEC Stage 3 Clutch, Torque Capacity: 700 $417.99 Resurface stock flywheel $-????? If I dont get the rockers and lifters my rough total will be $3463.95 Any and all help/input is much appreciated. Thanks in advance. Fry |
Save your self $350, and ditch the catted Y pipe. Buy true duals, and not only will it sound badass, but you will make more power. |
You don't need the rockers, lifters, pushrods, adjustable timing set, but do need a cam with slightly more lift. If you keep the nitrous with this set up you need to check the A/F to make sure you fuel system is up to par. If not you may want to think about twins in the tank or an inline booster with slightly larger injectors. Oh, and with that kind of power the stock 10 bolt won't last long. :) |
TNorman: The more that I am thinking about it, the more I think I will get rid of my nitrous kit. So if I take that out of the eqaution, keep that cam but go with this head/cam package from speed inc: Patriot CNC Stage 2 Ported Heads GM MLS Head Gaskets Felpro Head Bolts Choice of any Comp Cam Grind - SI4 comp 224/228 Comp Chrome moly Pushrods GM Crank Bolt & Seal Then the pacesetter headers and tsp catted Y (emissions reasons, its the only requirement to pass inspection here and I want it to not have any problems), and you said that I wouldnt the rockers, lifters, adjustable timing set...then it would cost 3150 with a spec 3 clutch. what about that? thanks Fry |
