Engine project...what you guys think?
Engine project...what you guys think? Well I finally got everything started to get my new motor built. The block is at a machine shop getting honed. Forged pistons, rods, and polished stock crank are there to be balaned as well. should have it all back in the next week or two. tell what you guys think of this setup. anyone have any input or know of any problems with these parts?
2002 LS1 block
Mahle 3.908 pistons -4cc valve reliefs
Callies Compstar 6.125 connecting rods and ARP2000 rod bolts
Polished stock crank
Comp XER 238/240 (cam in sig)
853 cast heads-ported and polished, Manley 2.02 int. valve 1.575 exh. valve
SLP 25% underdrive crank pulley
4.10 ring and pinion
All other bolt ons and parts in my sig will be with this setup.
i am going to check piston to valve clearance and mill the heads to raise the compression. the heads got new bronze valve guides, 3 angle valve job and backcut on the intake valves. i am in the process of tryin to sell my 3400 converter and get a bigger one since this car does not have to be my daily driver anymore. i also bought a dynotune nitrous kit to play with when my motor gets broke in. i think it should run pretty good. what do you guys think?
