Just ordered $2000 in parts for my motor build-up. Here's what I've got or have ordered:

-98' LS1 Block
-4.000" Eagle Crank
-Scat 6.125" H-beams
-Mahle Forged Pistons -6cc dish (3.903" Bore)
-Patriot Performance Stage II 5.3 Heads
-F13 Cam (230/232-.595/.585-114)
-Durabond Cam Bearings
-Clevite "H" Rod & Main Bearings
-ARP Main Studs
-Stock Replacement Gaskets/Seals
-FMS 7.400" Pushrods
-FMS Ported LS6 Oil Pump
-Single Rollmaster Timing Chain
-GM Performance Stock Replacement Lifters
-GM Head Bolts
-Stock Rockers rebuilt by harland sharp w/ new bearings
-ARP "cracked rod" 2000 series Rod Bolts


Did I leave anything out? How much should this produce at the crank? I plan on running a ported LS6 Intake after the beginning of next year.

Any other comments or thoughts are welcome! Thanks!

 

Well for starters, what is this going in? A truck or car? A4 or M6?
I would have to say somewhere in the neighboorhood of 400-415rwhp.

 

My bad, in my truck behind a 4L60E.

 

Any possible way you could use a 2000 + ls1 block? The 98 block would be a weak point due to the confirmed poor oiling.

 

gahh ive been trying to say that in another thread.....anyways, thats a nice build up for a truck. what rearend does it have?

 

Dont forget this is gonna be a 383... Im gonna say this should hit closer to 440+ but the heads might not flow well enough, and the cam is very small for a stroker.

If you got all those parts for $2K, you got a hell of a deal

 

Get a larger cam and a fast 90/nw and you will be closer to the 470 range with a ton of torque down low.
BTW where did you get the rotating assembly for so cheap? PM me the details please

 

I think he may have had some of it already. If not I would like to know where he got the crank and rods so cheap.!!

 

i was thinking the same thing, the cheapest I found a rotating assembly for was 2300...

2 grand in parts? holy hell! I spent 8k for the 383 short block and all of the supporting mods and will still need tuning!

 

Sorry for the confusion, what I meant was, that I just spent $2000 more. The total cost for everything is ~$4600 and I've still got some stuff left. Should have got a Radix!

Allan Futral recommended my cam. I told him I wanted badass off-idle torque, noticable lobe and good power to ~6200-6300. Everybody keeps saying go bigger on the cam, no offense to anybody at all, I know there is a ton of knowledgable people on here. I just feel better listening to Allan.

 

Eaton Limited Slip/Yukon 3.90 gears

 

What does Alan think of the setup? At least you know he's golden!
Sounds stout to me!

 

HAha, yeah, I guess I missed that part of the sig.

 

I didnt even see the sig... 4" crank and 3.903 pistons gave it away.
