Default ____Built Shortblock Pics___!

All the parts are in, and the shop will begin piecing everything together on Tuesday! The blower is going to stay at 12psi.
What kind of power am I looking at?

VT Sportsman
Heads p/p
Comp Cam 102600 (stage II)
Centerforce DF
Fidanza aluminum flywheel

Just want to give thanks to everyone on MF that gave feedback and help for this build. I will post vids once the car is running.

I think it'll be a little bit more than 440 probably like 475+

those heads and cams with the boost will definatly make a big jump.. probably i would say 450-480rwhp... which is good for 12 psi.

lets say, with 10 psi and full bolt ons... i put down 440rwhp....

also, with all that stuff, they can get a real aggressive tune on there because you wont have to worry about internals...

but hell have lower compression....i think 450. and unless its a blower cam i just dont think it will be that much. maybe on an absolutely aggressive tune but i just dont see it. up the psi and ooh yea...itll make the power

if it were me...id have the boost at like 16-18 with a built motor.

I want to stick with 12 psi for the summer to let the engine break in. The shop is expecting to see around 440-450rwhp.

to tell you the truth... i wouldnt boost it till its broken in... just to add let it break in alittle easier and stuff to wear in some more... im going no boost for a couple more weeks... but im also waiting on getting a smaller pulley before it goes back on.

The shop said not to worry about keeping the blower on, just avoid boost for a while.

If this is on 93 octane, 475+ is definately within easy reach, especially intercooled or with meth injection. On 91 octane figure about 40-50hp less at the wheels.

Take pics during the build up, its always good entertainment =P.
