Need a new bottom end to hold up from lots of nitrous
Originally posted by cboney2003: [be careful using a nitrous shot w/ too high of a compression ratio.]
umm, seems to me that ive always heard that nitrous loves high compression, blowers dont, higher is better for nitrous (within reason)
Your wrong, it likes high compression but to a point. If you plan on running a 150 shot like mentioned above i wouldnt go any higher then stock compression. YOu will have detonation and tuning troubles with high compression and a big shot. Thats why its not reccomended.

You are the shiznit!!! 3800performance had the pistons I need in stock. Now I don't have to wait forever to get them. I can get my car put back together asap. </font>[/QUOTE]NP, tell him Andrew sent you [img]smile.gif[/img]
www.turbov6camaro.com 1997 3800 Series II Camaro 4600 Stall for my ride to the mall :chug: 7.18 @ 99.77 1/8 -1.8x sixty (current quickest v6 fbod) 11.23 @ unk 5 1/4 - 7.19 1/8 - 1.83 sixty
The pistons I ordered are in transit. They will net me a 9.5:1 CR. I am also getting the cyl. heads milled .030". That will raise CR another point or two. I am keeping it below 10:1.
Financially, this bulletproof rebuild has cleaned me out. When I get back on my feet, I will convert my NOS 5175 to a wet setup. I might ghetto rig a full manual two stage, just to keep life interesting.
Who has built a bottom end before? I am thinking of letting the machine shop build my short block, in the interest of time. I have never done it before, and I don't want to screw it up.

They actually got to me really quick. I think he gets them fast because he has a vin # from a car that has them.

I might have to put in new valves. My aircraft mechanic buddies are machining them right now, and they think a few might be bent.
