Engine build

[moparkxracer]

Looking to start assembly soon, ( what I have is in my signature) everything is back from the machine shop. I've done a search and looking for some recommendations. What oil clearances do those with high hp engines run? As well as what engine oil? As said I have searched just wanted to ask. Thank you in advance

I have been getting a lot of requests for pics. I'll post them as I go on the build. This is a daily driver, it will see some track and dyno runs. I do not plan on putting a cage in it so not sure how many runs it will get at the track. Thank you for the interest.

Any updates? How drivable is your setup?

Would love to see how well this performs as a daily and what numbers she can put down as well.

I can't see the pics, can anyone else?

Nope

Btw I was unaware that George makes twins. Are the Nathan's that he installed?

 

[moparkxracer]

Are you asking who made my compound kit?

 

[NJ_LLY]

No, I was asking triple turbo. His sig says Big Dipper twins. I was in aware he built turbo kits.

 

[moparkxracer]

Oh, ok. I'm not sure on that one.

 

[tripleturbo]

Yea it's Nathans kit

But back on topic, sweet engine build, any reason why you went with the aftermarket cam? What are your power goals for it?

 

[moparkxracer]

The cam had a alternate firing order and is said to take harmonics out of the bottom end. The also help with spooling and moving the rpm around. Not sure what it will make for power. I just want a nasty daily driver.

 

[tripleturbo]

Nice, that's my goal as well, have a fast street truck.

 

[moparkxracer]

I'm not sure how much traction I'm going to have

 

[tripleturbo]

Im only 2wd so i don't have any as it is lol

 

[PACougar]

Traction, who needs that?

 

[moparkxracer]

I had traction problems with the 66/83 setup. we will see soon enough with this one. not sure if the pics are not showing up. there are some in my garage..
