So im starting to look into gathering all the parts for a rebuild on my truck. Little history,
250/100s, s471 t500 fuel system arps with 910s. im picking up a set up heads this week to be cleaned up, light porting with new valves and valve job. Aiming for a BTS come summer time, maybe earlier
My goals for this truck are to remain a dailey driver for now. I made 474 on my tow tune and 490/819 in my hot with ALOT of smoke yesterday on the dyno. im still blaming a loose housing on the lower numbers. I could only achieve 30psi and late spool. These are Gearhead tunes which are really clean on the road with up to 42psi. any who, my ultimate goal is 600hp with twins and close as I can to smoke free.
I was thinking 300/200s paired with a t1000 when its time for a release on that. ARP main studs. Can I reuse my fresh ARP head studs when resealing the block? Ive been looking at the international rebuild kits, pistons bearings gaskets and all the goods. I came across a kit with Mahle pistons for about the same price from northern auto parts. I want to have the pistons coated and relief cuts made. I just want to avoid any kind of piston failure. a SMALL Nitrous set up is an option in the future in situations like a dyno or track when I cant clean up the smoke and to make a power goal.
I just wanted to get all your opinions on a build like this.:thumbup::fordoval:
