5k$ Engine?
#11
personally if your gonna spend the money buy a long block. its like 3k for a short block plus 1500 for cnc heads, then you need to add gaskets timing chains and put the sob on. your probebly looking at like4700-4800 for short block and then buying the heads and crap, vs 5000 and having it all done by pros and sent to your house...i dont know about you, but im really good with my hands and id still pay the 300 bucks when im talking about 4k in parts alone(that 300ish is just to do heads and timing in labor not including the build of the short block, its a guess i could be completely wrong)...better safe than sorry the way i see it.

With KB's setup you want to run a low 8.5 compression ratio. For centri blowers you can run stock compression unless you are doing crazy boost run like 15 or more psi you would want to go lower with compression.

you got that backwards! nitrous and high compression go togethor like a hooker and syphylis. blowers need low compression to run high boost.

ya i got quoted a pretty sweet deal through cushman for head, cams, intake...im leaning towards that route right now, maybe just do that and get some suspension work done this year, and do a shortblock next spring.
