Engine Builders talk.
I have custom spec'd split duration/split lift cams. They were spec'd out by SHM many moons ago to go with NPI 7cc dish pistons and PI heads that had been milled .005". I think once they get hit with boost and e85 the will liven up some.. Current configuration it makes peak torq @2600 and holds it out to around 4400.. Peak hp comes right in before the shift point which is 4950.
My whole goal originally was a pump gas friendly engine that would make pulling easier, everything then once geared around a pully a 8k trailer on a daily basis.. I wanted tq. Now the truck doesnt see a trailer.. SO thing a getting moved more oriented towards performance.. Hopefully these SCAT OE replacement rods will handle the abuse... After the first of the year its going to be getting a ported eaton. Gonna start small and work my way up.. Looking for 425-450hp and 550+ tq on low boost.

Am I the only one who orders parts, out of order.
I obviously order the parts I want to see in person first, then order the parts that are needed for the next install last lol.
For example: Two turbos before I purchase Fuel lines.

Haha. Sounds like me when I did my engine.. Ordered pistons, and rods. Already had the heads ans cams, but never ordered rings or bearings. Went to go assemble everything and found no rings or bearings.. Thankfully when i go boosted I get to go pull everything out of a running lightning... So it will be a lot easier..

200 bucks for injectors. Hard to find 24lbers with ev1 connectors and these will plug right into my f150 harness. Yay or nay?
