Guys (and gals),
My machine shop now has my block, crank and heads
to do their thing. I hope to have it all back within 2 weeks. They
spec'ed out the following components for me:
TRW-L2242F30 SPEED-PRO POWER FORGED
PISTONS
MOLLY RINGS _ CANT READ P/N
COMP CAMS CCA-11-430-8 MAGNUM RETRO-FIT HYD.
ROLLER CAMSHAFT .566 LIFT/280
DURATION
COMP CAMS CCA-1320-16 PRO MAGNUM ROLLER
ROCKERS
COMP CAMS CCA-854-16 HIGH ENERGY HYDROLIC ROLLER
LIFTERS
COMP CAMS CCA-924-16 VALVE SPRINGS -
DUAL
COMP CAMS CCA-7110 BILLET TIMING SET - DOUBLE
ROLLER
COMP CAMS CCA-7934-16 HI-TECH 3/8 IN
PUSHRODS
All ARP head bolts, rocker studs and main
studs, Felpro gaskets, etc.
They CC'ed my heads, and they came in at 111cc's.
With the pistons above, I'm looking at roughly 10.5:1 comp.
ratio.
Block is getting bored 30 over, align bore
checked, my L78 rectangular port heads are getting the complete workover, rods
getting resized, everything balanced.
I went to Summit to compare pricing, and I was
surprised that the prices I was quoted from these guys are the same or lower
than Summit pricing. I figured a local shop would charge more...
I still need to decide on an intake and
carb.
As I have been out of muscle car building since
the late '70's, I welcome your comments.
