build is coming along, what do ya think?
Alright. Some progress has already started on the build. I bought a set of PI heads fully assembled, and also a high volume Melling oil pump. I'm really starting to narrow down on exactly what I want to do, and here is pretty much what I came up with. Let me know what you think:
MMR stage 3 port/polish on my PI heads (includes competition angle valve job as well)
Install crower valve springs/steel retainers (already have)
Install Crower stage 2 NON PI blower cams (already have)
Send Vortech SQ trim to Vortech to be upgraded to SI trim (happening in next few weeks)
Forged Rotating assmebly:

or
MMR Street Mod 900 Rotating assembly
1200 HP Forged Steel Racing Crankshaft (6 or 8 bolt)
MANLEY 4340 Forged H-beam Rods with ARP Bolts
MANLEY Forged Pistons with tool steel Pins
Hastings or Speed Pro Rings
Clevite Rod and Main bearings
1 year Warranty
They are the same price
Fuel setup: I currently run 42# injectors, Walbro 255lph intank pump, 90MM LMAF
I know I am selling my 42# injectors and getting 60# injectors...but other than that not too sure about fuel
New water pump
All new gaskets/seals
how does everything look? If anybody has any ideas/suggestions I am listening!

for the forged rotating assembly? Yeah, I think Livernois is wayyyy more of a reputable shop than MMR. And they are the exact same price.
However, for head porting, nobody can really touch MMR's specs/price. I have yet to find a place that can do a stage 3 port/polish for $750. So thats the reason I was leaning towards MMR for the headwork.
What will I have to do when it comes to fuel to handle in the 600rwhp range

its basically just a slight step down from a T trim. fuel will definately be my last step of the project after i get the forged rotating assmebly, headwork, and blower upgraded.
Just another question, on my setup before I ran a 90mm LMAF with a vortech mini race bypass valve. What would it take to switch my setup to blow thru style?

move your MAF after the BPV, and i would suggest getting a PMAS meter. i got one and the drivability is great with it. havent really seen too many people use the 90mm LMAF on a lot of blow through setups, although im sure they're out there.
