    Seeking advice for a budget iron block build

    Great advice, thank you! Also, I think I decided to just stick with the DSS forgings. Realized I have basically everything needed to do a eaton swap, so they cant hurt. Ill just stay N/A for a while until I put the bracket set and intercooler together.

    Seeking advice for a budget iron block build

    When it comes to bearing selection and clearances for the crank, what should I be asking the machine shop? Both my block and crank are in good condition on the mains and standard sized currently. Any advice on bearings to use and oil clearance targets?

    Seeking advice for a budget iron block build

    Seeing as this block is already at 20 over, the deck may have been cut pretty well already. It was a Jasper rebuild so I wouldn't be surprised. I'll get the block over to the shop and have them check it out and I'll start getting things ready to have the heads refreshed then I'll measure the...

    Thanks for the calculations! Rather disappointing results as I was hoping to be able to get closer to 10.5.

    Seeking advice for a budget iron block build

    6 bolt crank, and I think you are thinking of the coyote crank, there shouldn't be anything different from my understanding. And you know you may be right about going hypereutectic pistons, that was something that never crossed my mind. All I really am trying to build is a slightly stronger...

    Seeking advice for a budget iron block build

    Hello, Looking for advice to finally put together a short block. I have been acquiring parts for a long time now for an all out Aluminator block build, but figured before I go building a high dollar engine, it would be best to cut my teeth on something more budget friendly to avoid the...

    High Compression N/A with over bore

    Hey everyone, Not an engine building expert so wanted to ask some advice. Doing a budget build and have some random parts I've got a cobra iron block that needs to go to 0.0020/30 over. I was wanting to do a higher compression N/A build, possibly low boost in the future. Using h beam rods...

    What is this?

    Looks to be a boost pressure sensor tied into the stock boost reference line. Hopefully someone with more knowledge will chime in. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

    air intake tube to throttle body rubber gasket - sources?

    Unless you can find someone who has this part that was most likely in low production due to probably never needing to be replaced, you're going to have to search a junkyard as a previous member said. I'm sure tons of vehicles in the same model range use an identical part. Sent from my SM-G975U...

    Need help on what compression ratio to go

    Subbed. Op, im trying to do a somewhat similar engine. Sticking to a mild build, with a long block combo to handle 600hp with ease and reliability, but starting out N/A, then swapping a stock pullied eaton I have once I have the time to modify the car to run the heat exchanger and intercooler...

    Intercooler tubes

    I have a set of high temp silicone which are more maleable than viton. In my opinion I think a softer material is a better option than viton and will seal better and conform better as the intercooler is not completely stable during operation and heat cycling, and between installs there can be a...

    Cure to 2500 rpm lean spike

    All that sounds great to try. Also this idea came to me today, what if your pumps or tank setup is somehow introducing air into the system? If youre pumping aerated fuel to the rails, the way your setup is there is no where for air to escape like in a return system, the air usually would follow...

    Fuel system woes... Still dropping rail pressure w/new pumps

    I would check for damage and measure resistance on all wiring to fuel pumps and any other controllers you have to 100% rule out an electrical issue and then start working from there if all looks well. Interesting problem.... Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

    Cure to 2500 rpm lean spike

    This is definitely an interesting topic, and as I am not a mechanical engineer yet, I can't offer any exacting input, but thinking aloud about this is terrific. It is rare in this community a new technical topic comes up to be fleshed out. That being said, I am also still leery of the damper...

    Cure to 2500 rpm lean spike

    Hmm. I get it, halfway between full return and full returnless. With that, wouldnt you be 90% to a full return style already, what was your reasoning not going full return? Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

    Cure to 2500 rpm lean spike

    Definitely no interest in arguing, I watch enough people do that online already lol! But since I haven't heard of this style, where is the regulator placed? What's the route of the fuel from tank -> engine -> back? Even better if you have a diagram Id love to see it. Sent from my SM-G975U...
