Your shop should be installing your buddies 9" any day. I believe they are just waiting on the driveshaft unless it is there now.

I will start with a 3.85 pulley and see what we get boost wise, PC says they can then overnight a pulley and will be able to tell exactly what pulley will get me what boost when we have a baseline with the 3.85 Like i said, if i can get 800rwhp with the D1 i will be ecstatic. I will probably stop there since i am going to road course the car rather than drag it....just seems like alot more fun and a much bigger adrenaline rush trying to keep the car on the track. Now to figure out the brakes and oil system and i will be almost set! My builder told my yesterday that he is trying to get my motor out the door before some others....whatever that means. He says in a few days he will be able to tell me exactly when the motor will ship

So after changing the oil i pulled the #5 spark plug and it looked fine, just a little oil fouled. I also ran the bore scope down into the #5 cylinder and it looks the same as it did months ago. The occasional driving has not seemed to make anything worse. I took it out yesterday and drove it a good 20-30 miles and was in low boost a few times. No CEL, car ran fine, just smoked a little after getting into boost. I think i will start driving it more frequently. Hopefully my motor will be done soon. Im still trying to figure out if i want to dry sump it or just run a big oil cooler and an Accusump.

Hey Chris, nope not in yet. I talked to Erik on MOnday and he said the LSX block was incorrect...4.165" bores and not 4.125" I dont know if i believe it. He did say my motor is a priority and he will personally assemble it. Whatever! Ii am driving the car more and more often with the bad ringland. Seems to run great

Its about 3 grand for the setup. I think its overthinking my whole setup. I just want to road course the car to have some fun monthly. I am going with a big oil cooler and 3 qt accusump and will run aftermarket oil press gauges and oil temp gauges. I plan on also datalogging while on the road course. If the motor does starve for oil i will have the current LS3 sleeved and forged/stroked and plan on a road course setup with high compression and drysump. Its nice to always have a back up! Thanks for your input, i respect what you have been through in you build and welcome your inputs!

My plans have shifted to the road course so that make it easier....no need for an F1x now. I found a track an hour away. You were right however, i was smoking crack to think an ETIC of 3 months was realistic. I am learning how civilians do things since retiring.....tell them what they want to hear, not how it really is! Whatever!!! I drove the broke ass car today 17 miles and hit 8 psi on the boost gauge.....sure a big oil cloud exhumed from the exhaust on let off but it was damn fun! I do believe with this LS3 block i will contract Proline for the build! I cant stand being lied to! I just dont understand it???????

It isn't civilians....it's certain shops that have a reputation for doing this yet people go to them anyways.
