engine rebuilding info ..please help hi all,
i am kinda new here, but i always read your great tech info...
well i am about to rebuild my 98 ls1 engine..
and my question is...
i want to try 232/232 .575/.575 112 camshaft <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" /> , does this cam need valve/ piston clearness.. and thats using it with either my home ported heads( 2.055/1.6) or a new set of 5.3 heads with double springs...
do i have to get pistons with valve relifs and is it hard to balance it or hone it...
thanks in advanced

Re: engine rebuilding info ..please help Yup...PV clearance will be an issue...you probably will have to flycut...

Re: engine rebuilding info ..please help yes FireBall <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> , once i saw your cam spec last time .. i thought that cam will be the best cam for top end racing... the we do it here in kuwait is about a mile racing... this cam with 150hp NOS.. will be great...
but my only problem is... if i got a forged pistens with valve relifs in them, do i have to flycut the pistons do... and how much will cost me if i ordered a short block with that cam, forged pitons, ARP bolts for the rods and bearings and balanced to accept any valve size that i can bolt on the block
