    Tuned heads, ported and polished increasing 47 cfm!!!
    Heads milled with Copper O-Rings for increased boost
    Intake (upper and lower) port matched and extrude honed for increase airflow.
    New belts, guides, bearings and seals
    Retarded Exhaust Cam timing for increase power
    In short... one goin' some of a gun!

    sodium valves are bad news from what I was read a while back looking for info on them. Galling of the valve stem and guide. How are the heads tuned when all the flow gains are well past stock cam lift, which is what this motor has? Was it tuned on just a flowbench, or was there dyno testing done?

      Sorry guys... been a terrible bad week of travel and work out my buttom.

      Sodium Valves... I have them on my Lotus Esprit Torbo and they take HUGE amounts of boost and power. Can't complain. As for their size, I'll call my machinist on Monday and get the exact specs. I know the exhaust were increased about a mill. With 3 angle guts.

      The pistons are Keith Black Racing which, according to Keith Black, will take about 20 psi. My Turbo will go to 21 but is limited right now to 12 with occasional plans to boost to around 14 - 16 psi. Maybe 18 if I need that "wonder pass" over the dyno.

      The Pistons are also .060 over... or about a Mill. Plus 1, you know the drill. The block had .2000 so .060 wasn't a big deal.

      Compression after the work was reduced to about 9 - 1. Heads are O-ringed with copper and seted into the block. Nice.

      The T3-T4 hybrid is running a .47 in and .60

      I hope that answers the questions and I will get the rest of the documentation if there are any more.

      All in all, an awsome deal for an amazing motor.

        Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't going .060 over on bore pushing the danger zone for cylinder wall integrity? And then you're throwing 18 lbs. of boost at it? Do you really see that holding up very well? Also, what is the word on the five and six speed trannies for our cars? I haven't heard anything about that for a long while.
        I may own a GTO now, but I'm still a 60V6er at heart.

          .060 is cutting .030 into .200 available. No, it's not risky by any means. As for the boost, again, I don't advocate continually running 18 lbs of boost but the plan is do dyno one at 18 to document it. Boost should be limited to around 12 unless you have a few counter measures in place as well such as air/alcohol injection, piggy back management, better intercooling, etc.

          But you already knew that.

          As for the trannys... it's all about money. When the subject was set aside months ago, it was pointed out that the manufacturer wanted a minimum order of unit that was well beyond virtually anyone's ability to fund unless they were a manufacturer. Which I am not. So, no Million Dollar stockpile of spare cash... no trannys.

          It's pretty much that simple.

          I'm trying to move some of my parts and inventory. If you don't want it or aren't interested in them... that's fine. I need to get them sold so I can get other people paid for parts and other things.

          I would very much like to keep this motor but I need to sell it. Buy ANY 3.4L DOHC longblock in brand new condition and lots of hop-ups... regardless of what they are... for $3200 and I'd say you got a deal.

          Also, If you or anyone just wants to know how and what was done to do it themselves... just ask. Don't lead me to think you are interested in actually buying the thing. It's a waste of my and other's time.

                    All the stupid whiny bullshit is gone. If you don't want to buy the engine, either don't post or take it to PM/email.

                      I just dont' understand what is so hard to answer about my questions. They are legitimate. I just want to make sure he is actually using those parts instead of claiming he is when in fact they are stock and he is trying to rip people off. his rep isnt' exactly highly regarded

                      Doing research is being whiny?

                      ok.

                        You method of "research" is whiny IMO. If people are really that interested in it, they will email or PM him. Although not fully aware of his "reputation", I do know alittle bit about him. Do you really think someone is going to spend that much without fully researching it? Probably not... Well, Aaron might, but that's a different topic.

                        Its one thing to ask questions. Its another thing to ask a question, and then when its not answered in a couple days, to all of the sudden say the guy obviously doesn't know whats in the engine because he isn't answering your question. Maybe something came up... maybe an ice storm hit his town and he was without power for a week. Maybe he doesn't like your attitude. Or maybe he isn't a very organized person and doesn't have a photographic memory, so it takes awhile to regather all the info.

                        Either way, I felt that the majority of your comments (and some of his) weren't needed in the thread. As an admin, I can decide things like that.

                          Are these the pistons that your using on your boosted motor?

                          These pistons are Silvolites, not KB Racing pistons, they are factory replacement pistons as far as i can see.

                          "Overbored .060 with Keith Black Racing Hyper-U pistons...the Piston part number for the KB pistons is UEM3409-100-6"

                          Copy of email i sent to KB.

                          >Re:UEM3409-100-6 Pistons

                          >Hello.
                          These pistons list as a 3.4 vin"x" piston. Is it a stock replacement piston or is it a "hi perf" version? I have been told that these pistons are the "Keith Black Racing Hyper-U pistons" and can handle 20psi of boost. Please let me know what the deal is as the description doesnt say much as far as material or type of piston. Thanks very much.

                            Is that a turbo kit for the motor?

                              Heres the reply to the email that i sent from KB Pistons...

                              "Jerry Ward to me

                              HI Donk These pistons are a factory replacement piston, they will not take
                              the boost. Thanks Tech Dept."

                              Looks like someone is full of shit.
