Thread: VE Big Block Build....

it sounds like you have 2 different goals

1 is to build what you got
2 is to build an 11 sec car

Aside from having big HP to run 11's you are going to have to have a good driver mod, tranny and suspension to get you there.

If i could do it all over again:
90mm cp pistons
Full custom IM (ditch the N1)
$$$ on head work
$$$ on custom header for YOUR motor
Make sure your tranny is ready for what you are going to be doing
Stand alone ecu (I like my AEM others have other ideas)

you would have 230-245whp which is on the edge of too much for a daily driver but should be fun on the track as well

Yes it does. That's what I make. And I still can't run 11s with my stock gear box. My car weighs 2400 w me in it. I need to fix my gearing or loose some weight to hit 11s. I'm running low 12s now at 112-113mph

Also I was making 220whp on my 2.0 set up before I changed to the sleeved block

yea....

build the car to have fun who cares how fast you go somebody will always be faster

Lmao

- He already knew what he wanted to do before he made the thread. Either go 92x86, or 92x92, or go home. Even after that somebody will be faster, and yes, Cory made 260whp all motor.

Ain't that the damn truth.

My point in mentioning that I was making 220whp before the bottom end work was just to let you kno not to expect to go from 190 to 260whp w just woking the bottom end...

^Exactly.
