No sir. Just dont use helicoils. Couldn't find info on how to properly do it and was assured doubling up on thread engagement of helicoils would be fine. It was not. So instead of dumping more money into a dead platform that pisses me off, just gonna swap it.
Looking forward to you LS swap thread then! Thanks for expanding on the issue you had.
Haha not a big forum guy or build thread person. Just a major lurker. Im the type of person to get it done in a week/weekend and go out racing, and nobody really knows about it. My hands are always dirty and i dont even think about taking pictures or the patience lol!
Could. Needs the fire ring machined smooth where it expanded out. Stock, just a small cleaning of the ports to smooth the casting out. Nothing crazy.
Yep. The only difference is stock is 84mm. I went with 84.5mm cause my stock pistons wore a groove in my #6 bore from a bent rod.
Cool, thanks for the clarification. I knew they were slightly oversized and same CR, but I'm far from an expert on recognizing brands on aftermarket internals based on looks lol. I may just have to have a talk with the fiance and hope these stick around for another week or two, but even if the cards don't fall in my favor good luck with the sale! Whoever does buy these is gonna be lucky.
