    Dave Bamford's 4.8 LSX Conversion

    fresh set of rings then yea try .027. honestly if your using a JY motor then i wouldnt touch it, even rod bolts arent needed in the later yr motors. also dont beleive the HR article. I took a JY 4.8 to 26.5 psi and it bent the rods then next pull it exited out side the block. Rod bolts...

    Dave Bamford's 4.8 LSX Conversion

    keep an eye open for excessive blow by, when opening up the stock rings that have already been seated to a larger gap you will encounter more blow bye as the rings will not seal as good as they did from factory. I did this on a 53 im using and i regret doing it

    Dave Bamford's 4.8 LSX Conversion

    you will not need that much boost to make only 700-800 rwhp. I did that on 11 psi with a set of twin 62s

    New motor with bottom end noise

    so its been a few days and the machine and its followers have not posted up any answers to any questions. Theres a reason a few years ago on ls1tech this shop had gotten piss poor replys. so how does just one bearing get chewed up that bad? oh wait it was to not priming the motor cause there...

    New motor with bottom end noise

    in the one image it looks like billet caps? now i know those arent factory. did the machine shop alignhone the mains? if this wasnt done this can easily lead to this issue more thinking of this to say the motor wasnt primed right is BS as it wiped out one specific bearing. others would be...

    E85 Power/Boost/Timing Combination

    Abnormal amounts of water out the exhaust?

    i have the condensation out of the downpipes on first start up of the day, after that i have no issues. i run e85 and i prefer to keep my motor as cool as possible especially being 10.0 cr. having high motor temps can lead to a hurt motor if pushed hard at those temps. with that being said...

    New motor with bottom end noise

    heres some questions that should be addressed arent you suppose to use assembly lube on the bearings? isnt this there to aide in the first starting of the motor? are you going to say in 20 seconds after a motor fires that its going to wipe out bearings if it wasnt primed? what this...

    New motor with bottom end noise

    if there would be denotation in the bearin then the following would be shown....top of pistons would have chunks missing, the rod itself would be slightly bent or twisted from the denotation. So in order for the bearing to show it then other things would be noticed Ive heard poor results...

    For the LS fans, hows over 800 rwhp sound from a stock shortblock?

    i hit up the rollers once again. after the intake swap and larger injector swap i was in need of a retune. Since the street isnt the best place to tune WOT with this setup so i choose to use the dyno. I again hit up a mustang dyno. im still on 11psi with E85 and VP M1 meth mods since the...
