hopefully soon i will start my motor build but i will be on a budget and any suggestions will be helpful, i have a 6 bolt botom end with a 7 bolt head for the most part everything is stock, i'm would like to see 450-500 H/P i'm also going to be puting a holset turbo on it i just got it in..

this is what i think i'm going to be doing.....

fuel---FPR, 850 injectors, 255 fuel pump
tuning-----dsm link, GM MAF sensor
gauges---- wide band, egt, FPR, oil pree, oil temp, boost,
controllers----boost controller, turbo timer


so please let me know if you know any short cuts thanks

 

9.1 wiscos and eagle rods
bc springs and retainers
fp2x cams
evo8 maf insted of gm maf
1000cc injectors
bocsh 044 fuel pump

if u want something cheaper....

stock 6 bolt bottom end
stock head
fp2 cams
evo8 maf
1000cc
walbro 255

 

evo 8 maf???

 

Are you going to build the engine yourself? The stock 6 bolt will take some abuse.

 

correct , it will support the power u wanna make.

 

i made 603 on a stock 8 maf if i remember correctly

 

evo 8 maf, with the dsm link how will that be for tuning, what will i need to use a evo 8 maf??

 

yup evo8 maf with dsmlink.

u'll need some airflow calibration, but for the most part its alot easier then calibrating a gm maf and u wount have to recalibrate when weather changes.

 

ok now as far as the motor is going internals what is good but also has a good price

 

for ur power goal i would keep the bottom end stock if u wanna save some money.
