Since then, I've done a lot of mods:
Engine:
- 5.7 V8 L-98
- stock "short block"
- Lingenfelter Performance Engineering (LPE) 74219 cam
- LPE double valve springs
- LPE titanium retainers
- ported #113 heads
- Competition Cams Pro magnum 1.6 roller rockers
- CC hardened pushrods
- CC lifters
- CC true roller double timing chain
- Accell/LPE Superram
- FMS #24 injectors
- Hooker Competition headers
Transmission:
- auto 4L60 (700r4)
- full manual operation
- "Red Alto" Hi-Perf clutches
- "Kolene" steels
- Trans_go reprograming kit
- 2800 rpm "stall speed" converter
- aditional cooler
- B&M modified ratchet shifter
Suspension:
- front: Strange Engineering custom coilovers
- rear: adjustable KONI's
Brakes:
- C5 Z06 front brakes
- stock rear
Here are a few pics of work progress. Unfortunatelly, I've lost oldest photos.
By this point I've allready installed cam and all other LPE goodies and
headers.. Also, by then, I have ported stock #113 alu heads.
After that, I've opened up the engine again and installed some new parts
(rr's, lifters, pushrods......)
Here are a few pics:
engine in pieces
new parts
headers
pushrods and guides
lifters
CompCams Pro Magnum Roller Rockers vs stock rockers
During first build, I didn't install valve springs to correct height.
this was a perfect time to correct that.
tool I've had made for cutting spring seats
- a few more pics
result after these mods:
- 338PS i 525Nm (crank)
I was satisfied considering that was still with stock TPI intake.
Around a year later.........
-new vs stck intake
-injectors
-ready for action
...... more to come.....
