my build thread

[Wraith]

Figured it was worth sharing as progress is made. Goal is 550 to 600 WHP with turbo.

05 Stock Block
.030 over -15cc Diamond Pistons
Scat H Beams
ARP main bolts, rod bolts and head studs
Stock crank
melling upgraded oil pump with billet gear
comp springs
stock cams
stock heads minor polish
delete plates
stock intake
stock 5 speed (until I break it and Bruce you are right its worth more before I break it lol)
SPEC 3 + clutch
Custom 1 piece driveshaft (having guy locally make one out of steel)

FRPF Aluminum Radiator
Slim Line Fans with shroud (ebay find)
Tubular lower radiator mount (hoping to relocated swap but need to see)


Jeremy H's old Turbo (Zimmers)
Turbo TBD working with Jermey H on that.
60lb Injectors
MPX MAF
S&H stock fuel hat mod kit with walbro 405 returnless (for now)

Probably bunch of stuff I'm missing been working on it for a couple years just ready to drive it honestly. I would likewise say not really an original thought here worked with Jeremy who has been a lot of help and figure when it isn't broke why fix it.

That is eastwoods brush on:

I have been told by a number of people this works well and given the turbo being up front I figure it will hold up well.

Looks awesome!

Should consider ditching the stock crank pulley and getting an ATI Super Damper or similar. Even under-driving it. Since you're running stock cams, the rpm range you'll be working in will likely be just fine for the stock crank, but since the motor is built, I always suggest a quality damper to eliminate harmonic balancing issues further. It's a must-have for high rpm motors IMO, but prefered in general. An underdrive sure wouldn't hurt a turbo setup either.

Thanks i have considered it if time allows might do one before I put it in.

Added another part into the mix today from S&H
