As some of you may know i bought a new motor off ebay.
It is a 69 block, It was line bored and decked and it was deck plate bored and honed.
The rods are forged h-beam rods
The crank is forged.
The pistons are hyp. 10:1
The heads are ported trickflow twisted wedge
X Cam
Trick Flow R intake
42 lb injectors
80mm MAF
with a Wind Jammer Blower..
Tuned for premium fuel making approx 775 w/4lbs of boost
All major parts are new with the exception of about 200 miles on a street car.
Should i try to resell it, or i have thought about tearing it apart and putting some good forged 8.5:1 pistons in it and probably getting a main girdle for it... Which means i would have to take the pistons in and have them matched up weight wise with the hyp. ones. Try to make a 900-1000 horse engine out of it?
I have even thought about tearing it down and selling the short block, then the heads, the intake, and the blower all seperatly.
If i did keep it, what should i do with it? I have a blown 331 that i haven't even got to really drive yet... Even thought are cars don't get along to well with cams, I did notice that my FTI cam actually is a little bigger then the x cam on lift and duration i believe...
What would you do if you were me... I drive my car all throughtout the warm weather months as a daily driver...
