  • 3.4L Build up

    Well, my oil pump or something went yesterday..oil pressure dropped to 0 and my valve train is tapping like and SOB..along with huge decrease in power...so I'm starting my 3.4L build sooner then expected.... Got mostly everything for my turbo setup, minus a few odds and ends..along with that I'm pulling the motor and checking the tolerances in the cylinder, possibly just re-ring the motor but might end up with aftermarket pistons and rods as well....fabbing up a custom upper intake manifold which will flow alot better than the stock plenum, and will also incorporate a LT1 2X50mm throttlebody, heads are getting ported and polished, and a street/strip clutch setup...should be pretty impressive when I'm done with it...I'll keep you guys posted on the build......
