I have been reading the build book a lot lately.

On page 88 will help you figure out with failure rates.
Here

 

cost isnt the big problem right now its the fact that my block has already been decked once and cannot be done again....thats why i am just going 2 do a diffrent one this winter

 

If money is no problem then i would go with the Racing block.

You can run as much boost as your turbo can throw out and it still could take more.

 

spike is a good friend of mine i have been watching this whole build and cant wait to see it done so i can go for a ride in the car

 

it is about time u post on this thread *******

 

yeah yeah well hell its taken you so long to get it done i have had almost a year to post about it hahaha

 

true story.... i got a ton of stuff yesterday for it though

sick i got a good idea we should start trying out your new parts on my car to make sure they work then we can put them on your car haha

 

got my head gasket last week..... Picking up my cryoed & micro polished trans this week, and looking 2 take a trip on saturday 2 go get a new bigger radiator made

going 2 start putting some stuff back toghter this weekend if anyone wants 2 help\hangout

 

im four bolts and an a tapped oil pan , and waiting on my trans. away from sitting the motor in the car

 

Nice man, stock rad is good though, don't need an upgrade. Btw my motor should be back in the car this weekend and ready to shoot for 500whp

 

hey does that LS4 TB bolt right up to the hahn intake manifold correct

how much was the cost for the cyro of the transmission/?

 

What are you hoping to get out of all of this???

 

running and driveable......lol....... nah my goal is 300+whp @ 1bar

it bolts up but on mine the hole has 2 be resized.... and i cant say on the trans. till after it becomes available for everyone....srry

 

Thats it. How much you have done to this. I would have guessed a lot more.

 

well, the main reason is the fact that the motor has .020" over pistons(fail on my part)..... so im going for long lasting vs power till i can build the next motor (this winter if im not happy with my current setup)..... then mid 400 easy, but my power goal for now is 300+ @ 1 bar....... but that should be more the enough for a auto-x car. I will take handling vs power any day

 

how much does the hole have to be resized, and how did u due it?

 

dude i think me and ryan mite make a trip down that way shortly. just say hell w it and just leave town! haha. my build has got me all depressed. i wanna friggin drive it so bad...

 

Yeh i hear u on that....my **** has been down for 1 1\2yrs. FAIL!!!!! And now im buying a 1989 240sx coupe for a daily so my project is on hold once again
