hp/tq/ and 1/4 with a 76mm/78mm turbo

[Superman09]

It could go 11's or 9's. Way to many variables.

Have Jonny hook you up with a turbo cam. They guy that does them for him is VERY good.

What he said!

I was hoping to do 12 or 13 lbs. Any idea what kind of hp or 1/4 this will make

I wouldn't tear it down and open the ring gaps. What happens if you break a ring? Then your stuck honing/re-ringing and then it'll snowball from there.

5.3's are so cheap if it comes apart - throw another in it.

And one more question, can i still have a "boost" cam that has a lil lump to it? I know, silly question, but i love the way a lumpy cam sounds

I probably wont have any real technical questions until i get the kit and actually start putting it together

Sorry guys but i do truly appreciate the input

tons of variables but I don't see why you can't make 650+ conservatively.

And yes i need some kind of reliability

i wouldnt worry about it mike.. maybe if oyu were planning on 18lbs.. but you should be fine on anything less then 12.. which i wouldnt suggest going over that on a stock bottom end anyway

^ This does make a lot of sense. If your not trying to set the world on fire with stock parts I wouldn't mess with it.

[kammi10]

how much power do you want to make? I have seen several guys not worry about it, 90% of it is all tuning and what your tuner is comfortable with making on stock stuff.

I would. You get a good amount of heat in those cylinders and the rings will butt and take out a ringland.

Cheap insurance if your going to have the motor apart. I would resize the rods for ARP rod bolts also.

So should i open the top ring gap up like everyone is doing?
