Okay, so would the limiters be needed with my given setup or could you use full VCT? I already have my stock cams and a set of 26113 springs. Sorry if I am thread jacking on you Matt!

I don't want to deal with all that damn noise!


That's correct.

Use a thicker oil, my valve train was noisey with the limiters and comp springs. So i went to 10w30 for that and the turbo and it shut it right up, been running 10w30 for 2 years now the noisiest thing is the injectors now lol

You could easily use full vct still if you wanted but at wot up top your not going to be using more than 8-10 degrees retard so it makes sense to put in the the limiters (20 crank degrees).

There is no way I would run VCT on horsepower build, it's just one more thing to fail.

I cleaned up the engine bay a little more this evening.

[JoshK]

Damn man, that is looking clean!!

 

[MindIfISmoke?]

Thanks brother! Also 19cobra93 traded me a brand new set of FRPP k springs today for the 7 good Cp pistons from the other engine.

Do you run a thermal blanket?

 

[MindIfISmoke?]

Negative. I haven't had any issues with heat yet.

 

[JeremyH]

Swap that fuel rail crossover to the back of the rails next time you get a chance, would be alot cleaner imho.


I don't run a blanket either, no issues. I use to have one but I weighed the pros and cons and decided to remove it.

 

[MindIfISmoke?]

That's a great idea Jeremy!

 

[JeremyH]

Yeah i run my crossover in the back behind the manifold nice and clean way to do it!

 

[rford426]

Thought you did a wire tuck Matt?? Or are these old pics?

 

[MindIfISmoke?]

I have done a partial wire tuck. Notice how there are no looms on the valve covers and the ecu is mia

 

[rford426]

Yeah noticed that just thought you did it all

 

[MindIfISmoke?]

I'm not finished yet when its all done it will look amazing
