Sneak Peek!

Looks good Russ, any chance we'll see it at Redding on the 19th?

or up in Edmonton Aug 11?...

 

[RPM Motorsports]

I have everything Ken, but trying to find time for my own toys is hard. My full time guy moved out of commuting range, trying to get my weekend guy talked into full time lol.

What is the rating on the coil over springs? Nice job overall by the way!!! Good luck once you fly with it.

150's to start with until I can scale it, but they should be close.

 

[OKdrtyDmax]

Pretty sure I just got a whiff of burn't alcohol:thumb:

 

[SIKDMAX]

Yes Russ - when will we see you at an event????

 

[RPM Motorsports]

I'll be in Redding with my DD.

Been a while since i've updated with some new eye candy... LSM billet block, snagged it from Guy fair and square.

 

[jmaz268]

where did it come from and what are the specs?

 

[emiller3]

That sure is sexy:coolspot:

 

[JoshH]

That looks sweet. Doesn't look like it will make too many trips to the store with no coolant passages.

Lol, we will find out. If she doesn't like hot lapping, the price of aluminum scrap is pretty good right now

 

[ChevyDieselLLY]

When will it make its first appearance?

 

[RPM Motorsports]

Not sure! Shooting for Az. In March, but it's up to the piston gods.

 

[JoshH]

What pistons are you going to be using? What about the rest of the build?

 

[RPM Motorsports]

Waiting for Guy to hear back on that part. It's got a 4.200" bore, so Monotherms might not be an option. The rest of the build is close, just picked up a Precision AW/IC. Trying to decide if I want that thing in the cab with me, or closer to the low psi turbos.

 

[JoshH]

Steel pistons in an aluminum block would be quite the change from the stock configuration.

 

[RPM Motorsports]

Not sure what your getting at? I think the block alone is quite the change from stock. Guess it could be considered a dyslexic combo?

 

[SSchmi5519]

I think he just means that stock is alum pistons in iron block, the ol' switcheroo :woott:

 

[RPM Motorsports]

That's what I thought too. I guess the ceramic liners in the cylinder would make it more odd.

 

[Subman]

Is this the same block that Wade is using in his Prostock car?
