My goal is 550. I thought about the coyote swap but it’s not worth it where I am. And I also wanted to stay a 2v. My car sounds badass. The KB 2.1 won’t get me to 500 at 14 psi ?
even on a built block with a 2.1 KB 450 is my max i can look at ?
I still have the blower. I wasn’t crazy about it. Where I live it’s hot and humid during the summer and pure snow right now. I originally was going to upgrade the heat exchanger to a cobra one and pulley down to like a 2.5 ish ( can’t remember the sizes at the moment) and upgrade my tranny to a...
I’m going down this rabbit hole as we speak. I have the VORTECH V2 with air to water. I was putting down 430rwhp until I jumped a timing chain. I’m currently trying to sell my V2. Complete setup with intercooler and injectors. All brackets yada yada yada.
So now my engine is getting forged abs...

I’m pretty sure it is. The Liberals are socialist communist, Trudodo has said public many times he admires China communism. Why on earth would a “ free “ nation admire communism ? That same asshole allowed the Chinese to get military trained in BC and he allowed them to invest in Canada making...
So I spoke with the builder, I’m going Manley H rods and Manley pistons I believe. I’m leaving the compression stock in case I ever want to go back to N/A. I’m not looking to go past 500-550 RWHP so the stock crank is fine.
I’m going upgraded guides and lashes to the metal ones. APR head...
Well I’m calling an engine builder on Tuesday cause it’s a long weekend. But essentially I need to know what I want. If I stayed with a stock compression would it hurt the performance all that much ? Cause if I decide to go N/A again k don’t want less compression
To carry on our conversion from earlier, which combo did you go with in your pistons? I’m trying to see which ones would lower my compression to pare up with my SC and a set of aggressive cams and my stock PI-heads

I have air to water, but all the work that was done to the car was done by the previous owner and he hacked a few things, one would be the heat exchanger. He Jerry rigged a ****ing oil cooler for a heat exchanger. So I drove my self crazy and tracked down cobra brackets and a cobra heat...
I was scheduled to upgrade my intercooler setup and I service my VORTECH every summer, that was going to be done as well when this happened. Your setup looks insane! But you purchased a new block tho. You didn’t use the one you have.
Can I see an actual picture of your car, that colour is...
So tell me exactly what you got going on, I might be interested in doing the high school bullshit method where I copy your homework but change the wording lmao [emoji23]
Also did you keep, your stock crank ?
