bigger better faster build
Well last week I'm sure most of you know I hydrolocked the motor in my 04 GTO and blew #7 rod out the side of the block and oil pan... Now for the ressurection :)
This week pulled the motor out and tore it down.
Reusing the ported/polished and milled 241s for now,
238/242 .595/.595 112 Trickflow cam
Adjustable double roller timing set
Melling hv oil pump
7.400" pushrods(if possible)
Now the fun stuff=
Fully forged 404ci stroked 6.0l iron block
Edelbrock Proflo XT intake (jus came in yesterday... Its hugh!)
60lb injectors
Also while the motor is out I'm doing a big cleanup and deleting parts=
ABS gone
TC/cruise unit gone
Computer relocated under the dash
Wilwood manual master cylinder and re running new lines (if you have not tryed using the new eazy bend lines you MUST and will love them)
Flaming River manual rack to delete the power steering assy
Also possibly relocating the coil packs if the valve cover covers will not fit with the new intake.
I'm still running the stock 04 hood and pretty sure it will hit the intake so a might need to do some custom metal work to the hood for clearance... Thinking I might need a small hump like the older Eclipes
I have some pics sofar and will be taking more as I go!
