132313, Questions about rebuild Posted by GsNewbie, Nov-08-10 03:27 PM
Ok I am about to buy a block with the head off a guy that had a accident (engine is in good shape) An i plan on rebuilding it to handle boost, Whats best psi for it as a daily driver? I want to have some power but also want to keep it daily driver. An then what kind of rebuild do i got to do to engine to make it handle higher boost, List of parts would be great! An good quality stuff to. I was thinking along the lines of 20 psi, I want to get in the 300's with horse power. Can I get some idea's. List of parts I need for rebuild on engine is what I am looking for mostly it would help me out alot. Thanks

To be nice I'm going to tell you to use the Search feature of the site. You'r not the first person to ask these exact same questions and you probly wont be the last. Also you might want to proof read your posts because some people will roast you on poor grammer and spelling. Personally as long as I can understand what you'r trying to say I don't care.
As far as a list...
Forged Pistons Eagle/ Crower long rods Major port and polish Bigger cams (read the camshaft discussion) Springs and Ti retainers PT Crusier style Lifters and Rockers ARP Head studs, Main studs, etc.( basicly every bolt, nut and screw)
Not most important but close MEGASQUIRT. Thats all I can come up with off the top of my head, but there is more.( That's just the basics and not all of them either
EDIT: Look one or two threads down and they have a list of what has been done. http://forums.2gnt.com/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=5&topic_id=132280&mode=full

Thanks for the response, I figured I would put down what I am looking to run on my car and my goals and get responses. But thank anyways.

And as far as your goals, they should be strictly hp related not I want to run xxpsi. You can get 300whp out of a 16g. And yes, please use the search functioin.
