#1
L92 crate + W2W = 414 CID powered Vega
Hot off the presses.
I handed off a new truck crate motor to W2W and received back a nice big bore stroker upgrade to my 1976 Vega. I’ll start posting progress pics at my personal site www.ls1vega.com
They got rid of all the cylinder deac stuff and the entire cam phaser assembly,lifters, oil pump and seems to have turned it into a good old big bore Gen III with the sweet L92 heads of course.
W2W custom cam (forgot specs but will get, don’t have build sheet yet)
Springs, pushrods and Ti retainers to match.
A full rotating assembly (Callies 4 inch, Callies rods, Mahle pistons)
Custom W2W oil pump
11:1 comp.
I have the stock truck intake of course but no other options in my possession.
Here are some pics of it and of the box of stock parts taken out(lots of them)
I want to thank everyone at W2W for the great work!
If W2W steps in they can tell you allot more about the build then I could at the moment.

Well its the same cost really for a stroker LS2 setup plus cam, springs retainers and push rods. Then of course the price of the crate motor.
Since I have a Vega I wasn't someone just waiting for a block which seems to not be happenning too fast. I have nothing and needed everything so I just started with the crate motor.
It wasn't cheap or anything but you get what you pay for so I figured I do it right once and just eat peanutbutter and jelly for a while.
I forget the cam specs but I'm attempting to get a build sheet from Billy. Them maybe some would like to guess at HP after I get some cam details.

Uhm.... A 4.125" bore with a 4.0" stroke = 427.6 cid .....to include a 70cc chamber and a 0.038" head gasket.
A 4.125" bore with a 4.10" stroke = 438.3 cid .....with the same attributes.
Or you could use a 4.075" bore with a 4.10" stroke. But bore vs. stroke ratios are better when going towards a larger bore vs. stroke.
