Lol my buddy keeps trying to get me to do a ls swap. But this motor only cost me 1600 and had 26k miles on it. If i wanted a v-8 i would of bought a car with an v-8. Keeping the Zed the way it suppose to be.

What exactly are your build plans? I guess you could try higher CR pistons, but it will have to drink race gas or use WI.

Im going to look into options, i still want to keep the car streetable. I want to do the heads before anything, and if the stock block blows up i can just replace it. If the stock block holds up for a period of time, ill just send the block of to get it built for high revs.

Well it looks like you're serious about this...
You're going to have to replace all the internals, that's a given. So get together with your mechanic buddy and start figuring out what you can afford. Off the top of my head you will need: High compression pistons Lightweight/knife edged crank / possibly more stroke if you can't get enough volume via boring Custom grind camshafts with upgraded valvetrain Forged rods Fuel system & Injectors Boring the cylinders / sleeves Custom Intake or ITB's This is actually a really neat project and I hope you go through with it. GOOD LUCK!

Elmo, finding parts is easy ...........
Talk to JWT 1. Crank from Bryant Racing (OEM stroke) 2. GA rods and pistons from JWT (12:1) 3. JUN cams and OEM VVEL, or GA HR head conversion 4. ATI damper, or you can use the Ross Performance from down under 5. Wet sump with external pressure stage - requires some plumbing inside the sump and delete OEM oil pump OR Daily Engineering Dry-Sump OR Omega Tech dry-sump (I'm the guinea pig) OR NISMO oil pump BUT Doran Racing will tell you it is not a perfect solution but "should" be OK for street/"fast road" engine 6. You cannot go wrong with valve train from Kyle at ImportPartsPro OR JWT retainer/spring package 7. ITB/induction - I hope to have HR-head x-over mani in my hands this month - but this probably will not suit VHR heads 8. Beware OEM crank as Doran will tell you that they crack after a few meetings (so figure ~10 hours race running) - it might be OK for a fast streeter - depends on time spent at big revs Last edited by BGTV8; 08-18-2015 at 03:22 AM. |
