So the car is for sale, but in the mean time I plan to keep playing with it as extra money becomes available...

So my plan was

Ati OD balancer
New oem headgasket
Mongo NBS deletes (already have)
New timing chain, guides, and tensioner from CED
Ported and polished head, new valvetrain hardware
Supertech 75#s

Few questions....

Am i missing anything suggestive ?
I was told if i built a very efficient head, stock bottom end would ware faster. Thoughts ?

I would like to also step down to a 2.7 on the tvs. Shoot for a 350whp goal on 93 pump. My car is daily driven 365, and i have a spare head that can be built while parts are aquired. Looking to have it swapped with everything else done in a day or two tops, get it done on my weekend so i wont be out of a car.

What is your current set up and power on the TVS?

350 might be tough without E or cams. maybe add ARP headstuds.

Check my thread Kev.

I have a list of items that I purchased. Including all the gasket sealers & such you need for the reinstall.

Im making 315whp 275wtq on 2.8 tvs setup. Unknown boost level, conservative tune. 350 is just a number to shoot for. If i dont get it i wont be sad, just a tentative goal. Since its daily i would rather have a fun safe setup vs ***** out setup. For the highway runs around here 315 is plenty enough to lay down the rape train on 75% of vehicles.

Jeff will check it out.

the bottom end will wear faster from your foot in it more other then that no faster then usual
I would get better bolts for timing chain the increased spring pressure will be harder on the stock stuff and I would do cams also its well worth it

Idk, i,want to see what it does on stock cams. If i decide i want more, then its cake at that point to swap. I keep thinking of what powell has said regarding cams.

Governor made more hp and tq through the entire powerband with cams. Enough said.

Meh, if the head is off, might as well do everything at once man.

Take it from me.

Mongos deletes are just the outer gears and bearing, you need a bushing for the inner BS bearing

the stock cams are good no doubt but only good to a point we know what the stock cams are good to on a tvs so why keep beating a dead unicorn
