Jesus, what size pulley is that? Looks smaller than a 2.9"?

 

Whent to junkyard today to get a head to get sent out but ended up getting a hole block for $150 love knowing people and u can never go rong whith a deal like that

 

I have no idea what size it is need to get a size but got the set up cheep so dident ask questens just snatched it up

 

if you want to run the stock SC pully i can sell you the one i have for 5$ lol

you would have to pull off the hub thats on the SC you have and press the stock pully back on.

 

That does look like a really small pulley lol probably at least a 2.7 maybe 2.6. If you build before going sc you could run those (although that small and heat and starts becoming an issue) but if you stay on stock internals first definitely get a bigger pulley lol

 

I'm doing full internals

 

finaly took the engin apart



This is y DEXCOOL is bade for your engin

Need to put trany flued in to get the cylinders free

I allso startd clening the head befor it hits the machine shop


starting to get ther

 

What in holy hell happened to that motor? lol

 

Sat at the junkyard in a satern for 2 years and now it's striped and redy to get rebuilt if I don't get the zzp block I only hot it for the head I only spent 150 on the hole block

 

Gotcha lol I was gonna say that thing looks like the inside was full of water. Good price though especially if you can get that motor running for cheap and sell it

 

i was gonna say as well holy chet thats a mess

 

Yah just need a hown and should be good to go

 

Finally ordered my rockerarms custom 9:5:1 pistons and my rods as well as the lifters and full gasket set

 

Make sure you hot tank that whole block before you put it together

 

Why dont you do the S/C then build later?

 

Thanks for the hot tank info and I'm building it cuzz the engin I have in my car now has bad compresen so I'm just building another engin for now and when I'm done I'll just throw it in

 

Any update on the engine? I love watching builds

Its all geting the slow and stedy
My custom pistens should be in any day

 

Cant figuer out what cams i whant to use any input from anyone

 

Don't use cosmetic head gasket!!!! Use factory l61 its multilayer steel and won't effect compression. I'm running a similar setup to what your building. Keeping factory compression is key. Your rods and pistons can handle it and you don't lose anything low end. If your going this far just delete balance shafts. I deleted mine and there's not much of a difference with vibration. It revs fasssst though. Never mind you already got your pistons. I just stuck with wiseco 10:1

 

Thanks for the input what cam do u recommend

 

Just go with comp blower cams and titanium retainers. Me personally I wanna be unique so i m going with custom grinds. Its up to you. If you can go that route its cheaper made for you and no one else will have them. GM blanks are 80 and grinding is 120 a cam at least here. I'm excited to see the build progress though. If you wanna have fun you can swap to 07 stuff like me then you get hpt haha.

 

Yah I gess it whould make tunning a lot easear what did u have to do

 

swap ecm bcm and engine harness. then you have to rewire one ecm connector and repin 3 spots in your power distribution box. plus you need an 07 motor. the key things are the crank and cams. It's alot of extra work if you don't already have an 07 engine. I got mine for 200 bucks running hence why I did the 07 swap. plus you get like 15 more hp out of the 07

 

yah not relly looking to do a rewire and have the moter allredy
