New Build in Progress.

[REV.olution]

Hey guys, my build has officially started after I found out that my bearings were spun. Therefore me & Dave @ MAP got the stark to ignite my stock 8. The results:

Perrin Air Filter
AEM Boost Controller
Clevite Rod/Main Bearings
Eagle Rods
ARP Main/Head Studs
Wiseco Pistons
Brian Crower Springs/Retainers
AEM Adjustable Gears
Power Enterprise Kevlar Timing Belt
Clear Cam Cover
Kelford RaceCams 272/272
Walboro 255 Fuel Pressure


I've done pretty good research on these parts, and therefore fill comfortable with their performance. But, I am looking for some good tuning shops with good rep, for dyno breaking engines. Besides my other mods, any whp guesses would be appreciated.

Sounds like a good mix of parts. You going to be tuning on pump or race? What size injectors if any? What's the current compression? What turbo? I hope to have a few things done when I get back from Iraq, looks like you should see 400's with that depending on turbo, injectors and any other little things you may have done to it.

Have you already purchased all of the parts listed?

[REV.olution]

Yeah awaiting in mail. As for the turbo, because the engine blew, I am going to cycle out some miles before I change it out. And for the injectors, I was going to change those out with the new turbo, later in the year.

very nice man!! sorry to hear that your motor was junk!!! but now you get to have some fun with her!!!

[REV.olution]

Thanks, Piston compression is 8.3 by the way.

[ultm8mind]

Pretty low comp, keep us posted on what she puts out.

[REV.olution]

That's the norm as far as pistons go. The options were 8.3 & 9.1. I'm wanting longevity.
