Oliver pistons and rods .020 over will be here friday. Order my 2V heads stage 3 CNC ported from Livernois(best revies) for 2500 +700 for custom ground cams. The cams will be for mid range from 2500-5k. Torque output will be about 120% of hp until 4200 (these are my calculations.
Shew, glad all that is over with. Now time to buy the assembly components; timing chains, gaskets, sealer, studs, and valve covers.

BTW, there is a very nice turbo intake for sale. It looks like it will bolt up to the stock lightning intercooler.

Actually they are Windsor castings with 10 thread inserts. Cost me an extra 250, but I want to keep things consistent.
The guys at livernois know their stuff and will be getting a lot of my business. Should have the engine together by the end of the month. That will give me plenty of time to make my intake, fab up the return and intake lines on the metco fuel rail, and install/wire up the pumps and lines.
Can't really do anything with the turbo stuff until I get the motor in to check dimensions and pipe running. Tranny is getting upgraded at a local shop. Shooting to hold 750 rwhp. Don't have any clue for numbers yet, just a guess and mathematical approximations.
Still need to change to the accufab 90mm and add the tps. Change up the pcv setup and egr delete.
I do have a 10 row intercoooler if any of you guys need one for the chargers.

So you're only having the transmission built to handle 750? I would think you would want it to handle more HP so that overtime (wear) it will still be able to hold the power. Sorry if I'm misunderstanding, but that's how I was taught helping out a race shop. Of course they were a lot harder than you probably plan to be on the transmission. Lol.

1000 tq puts in range of destroying the stock drum and planetarys. I have a built one and can tell you the parts need to make a built proof 4r/E4OD are in the range of $1500 at wholesale prices.
