ok well im coming across enough money to fully built a ka-t.
But im not im going to be building the bottom end.
my power goals im wanting are 350+ wheel nothing over 400
this is what i came across and i was wondering if it is what i should get or not ? Automoto Sports Copyright&copy AMS 2006 im open to more ideas so let me know
the head work is going to be minor replace old valves hot tank ect

im going with the bottom end build to be on the safe side. id rather spend the money that i have now to be safe then blow one up again. LMK on ur thoughts....

 

it's not going to be boosted right away. im going to be investing alot of the money
so ill be saving for the turbo kit/tune im not worried about the boost yet ill just drive in a low compression ka for a couple months. lol

 

do stock compression...its all in the tune and make sure u get ur head studs and mls gasket..if u look at the top of nissan tech im pretty sure mine and dans posts are still there...lots of ka-t info

 

nvm some ass face took the info off...if ur only shooting for 300ish just go with a new oem bottom end(from nissan) have it balanced and get some good bearings.. the head doesnt need work just get a low miles head clean it up and slap that on...i made nearly 300 on a 150k miles ka and had no problems..and again the tune is the biggest thing if u wanna make reliable power...go on ka-t.org you'll find a lot of info that may come in handy..gl

 

^ +1 kat.org i have been on that site for months just reading and finding out shit. the people are pretty cool too tell you about how many ka's they blew up and what they did wrong..

but im goin the t-28bb setup bottom mount sr style with out internals and a good head.. hopin for around 300 when fully tuned just gota get a damn good ka that dosent cost half the price of a ca or rb20 because i got some awsome ka's for 50 and 100 bux what there really worth and the expensive ones pop just like the cheep ones just gota do it right or do it twice (2049586329 times in my case)

 

There is a real nice nissan expert in Tampa.. 813-333-1100. edited for content.

 

thanks ive been looking on KAT.org for a while.
and from what i read the stock rods take a shit at around 350ish wheel. and at this moment i have the cash to do it right. im just wondering if it is a good setup or not ill be looking for more info in the morning. thanks so far.

i just dont want to blow another motor on somthing i should have replaced.

 

ur not reading enough...theres a guy on there that made it in the high 500's with a stock bottom end kade.. trust me a stock rotating assembly for ur power goal will be fine..save some money and make power...cant say it enough tho tune tune tune!!! even a beefy forged bottom end can take a dump if u have a shit tune

 

thanks
