New Motor
 

Well, I did it. I expect it will take at least 6 weeks to build/ intstall/ tune.

-LS3 based 418ci forged everything
-ETP 215 Heads
-FAST 90
-factory compression ratio
-Big ass cam (i.e. bigger than my old one)
-kooks 1 3/4 headers

Crossing my fingers for low 500's at the wheels:drink:.

Good luck Carlos. Keep us posted on the progress. That should be one badass motor.

Sounds like too much fun!!!

:drool2:

And make sure we get some video when it's done. I want to here it!

That 418 LS motor will run hard. Good job.:drink:

Word. Are you considering an Acuusump?

Yeah. The guys at vette doctors are looking a a moroso road racing pan and maybe the accusump. It all comes downto the price accusumps aren't very expensive, but I don't have a very high sealing on this one.

I'm not doing anything here but writing the check. I'm hoping to have a motor that will last a LONG time.

I'm sure it will. :beer:

The good news about the pretty inexpensive Accusmp is that the pre-oiling alone is probably worth the price in longevity, to say nothing of helping to alleviate starvation situations. :huh:
