I’d go a bigger blower, 10-12psi an Intercooler(must only eyes) before I went stroker manifold etc.

 

then e85 if avaiable

A lot of money for little gain IMO. You also need to find the cam specs. A 284 crane works very well with boosted 304’s.

 

Converter bringgs the the revs right into its power band. If your saying its doughie below 3000 I’d look at a 3000-3500 stall. It will bring revs right into the sweet spot when Uou stand on it. Ideall u want 2-300rpm more stall then the rpm peak torque was made.

Dual plane won’t Be any better then the bananas …

Correct stall and diff gearing will help.

What’s the combo.

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Pocket change. Lol

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Yeah that’s it mate. If it was a single it would of been catch ya valve, piston and bore. Lol

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Yeah that’s it. My 304 had singles and there was always that doubt if I broke a spring I’m dropping a valve. At least with doubles u have somewhat of a fail safe

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Yeah would need it’s routine go over. I did 37k with it. Springs were good still. Lunati doubles.

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

I daily drove it No probs. The heavy clutch was the downside.

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Yeah. Whilst mine was small it was pretty aggressive. 215/223 .604/.610 112+2

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

What’s the specs on it?

 

Mate te of mine had some very good results with an ls3 cam in his 6.0ltr

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Was there any mention of cam etc? Or just freshen up? I was very happy with the baby cam in my ls1

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Exact same happened to me. Leak down and comp test was mint. Changed cam and noticed bearings. Then as you do, I went over board.

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Starting to show copper on the cam bearings? Eugene @ flowcraft did the machine work on my LS1. Power honed the bores, decked the head face flat supply and fit new cam bearings.

He also ran the whole rotating and block thru the hot wash for me. So it made clean up a lot easier.

Wasn’t bad for $600

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Wish mine just fell off. Took me ages to clean these Pistons up.

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Yeah. My 80 series has a drain plug. But the stupid thing sprays straight into the cooler lines and goes everywhere LOL

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Yeah I did mate. Best thing I did. Got sick of making a mess and wasting coolant when I had to continually drain it etc when I was sorting my cooling system.

 

Used these http://www.ebay.com.au/ulk/itm/191723969035

 

I just had a bung in it. On the bottom hose facing down. You can buy little ball valves that’s screw in also.

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Slightly bigger then my 235’s

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Hmmm interesting. When I briefly spoke to engineer he mentioned no

was told you can’t use e85 at emissions. Gary can you confirm this? As e85 would make life a lot easier
