hey im new to fi...my first turbo car was b16 turbo with itr valve springs and sk2 tuner1 cams and sk2 manifold first gen..i bent some valves so i took it out and im in the process of reffing my ls

ok after im done reffing i want to start on my lsv turbo im planning on just buying new super tech flat valves and slapping the head on thinking if i should rebuild the ls bottom end with arp rod bolts new rod bearings ofcourse and rings...or should i get forged rods/piston..my goal is to be at around 300 to 400 whp..any iinfo on what else is needed of is appreciate thanks

my kit is a turbonetics turbo with 750 rc intjectors will be buy a six puck clutch and fuel pump

My lsv bone stock head and block made 266@8psi. If you want it to last then put forged part but I also think between 300-400 hp will last for a while. If you can get another ls block and build it on the side

which turbonetics turbo is it? Is there any particular reason you are going with flat face valves? I would suggest staying with the dish style. Flat face is specific to N/A builds from what I've seen. Someone else might have some more information on that later on. I would go ahead and go with forged internals that way you can go from there and upgrade at a later date with your setup if you so choose to

I just rebuilt my lsv did new bearings rings and honed the block I made 315whp on 10psi using a garrett 57 trim and a ramhorn manifold.

welll for the turbo the only marking on it i see is a red T i think im not sure have not look at it in a while..the reason im going with flat valves i didnt think it would hurt since i seen someone with a build thread using it and would a picture of the snail help you determine what kind it is ? i ask b4 didnt really get a answer let me know ill post a pic if it will help

cool i would love to be somewhere around there but what was your whole set up? did you have to get a new fuel pump? what tranny were you using was the head stock?
