help me complete my list please

any comments concerns advice is greatly welcomed

 

I'd think about a little bigger cam, unless you wanted a COMPLETELY STOCK idle. maybe a 224/224 or 228/228

 

stealth baby

looking to lay the smack down and keep people guessing

 

does the ls4 oil pump bolt up just like a stocker? And where can u get the ls4? Im doin the same exact thing as u, H/C/I swap.

 

what about the CheaTR cam?

 

What type of power/times are you looking to make with this combo and how much will it cost total without labor?

 

-you will need coolant and refrigerant (unless you want the dealer to do the a/c-which is what i have always done)
-and of course a tune
-depending on what ls6 intake you have you might have to get a freeze plug.
-get several zip ties to tie up the o2 sensor wires.

-RTV silicone for the front cover/oil pan
-locktite for cam bolts
-don't know how many miles you have on your car, but might as well do water pump and tstat while you have everthing off!

 

I wouldn't put rod bolts in without resizing the rods. You're asking for a spun bearing. Just my opinion, I am sure many people have done it without a prob but the risk just seems too great to me.

 

i believe it does - PM 1loudta for more info, rob would gladly answer your ls4 oil pump ?'s

fredbeansgmparts
is where im getting it from
ill post a GM part # for it in a bit too

 

good cam but too much lift for me

Plus its really designed to work w. manifolds cats etc etc
ill see better results with the combo
i know of 420rwhp w. this combo thru an A4

 

im expecting mid/high 11's trapping apx 120mph

heads 995
cam 419
ls6 intake 300
chrome moly pushrods 130
LS7 lifters 100
lifter trays ??
LS4 oil pump 70?
LS2 timing chain 40?
seals gask?
fluids?
pully/bolt.belts 220
torque converter got a SICK DEAL... 200
Headers/ORY w. cut out/slp dual dual 250

TOTAL thus far is aprox $ 3,000

 

I could have re-used most of my gaskets. Other then the front seal, I think most of them could have been reused. However, when you're in there
