nobody happens to have a bolt that goes to the PS tensioner pully? they tried selling me that **** for $30. fucc that

speaking of that. i just dropped like 70 bucks just on damn new bolts from Acura.
I can't imagine what this LSVtec build is going to cost. should have just bought a gsr long block

 

mine cost 3000

 

thanks guys

damn thats a nice investment. how much are you putting down?

 

havent dynoed it yet but heres the set up

b16 head
skunk 2 dual valve springs and retainers
gsr cams
b16 pistons
b16 tranny
12:1 compression
valve job
block rehoned
fancy spark plugs and wires lol
tuned on chrome

shop that built it said it prolly puts down like 170-180whp nothin special. i went lsv cuz i blew my ls.

 

pr3 or p30 pistons in an LS with a pr3 head, wont give 12:1 compression.

you'll be around 11.3-11.5 at best

 

damn i been MIA for a good week ahah, hows everyones ride, happy Chinese viet new yrs to all u viet/Chinese ppl

 

i have power steering again yay. just found out its a AC tensioner pully bolt i need . so i just put back the PS belt. i didnt know i went from the crank to the pully i thought it also had a tensioner

 

hi dudes!

 

 

just ordered a set of plugs = $50 i miss the b series already

 

Ouch, for 3k you could of done a full type s swap, or did a fully built boosted ls.

 

Imo spending money on an ls is like spending money on a sohc.. a waste

lsv ftw

 

i disagree. a boost d series is fun and can put down some good numbers. same goes for an LS. with 3k he could have boosted his LS and easily made over 200whp compared to the 180 he's pushing with his ls-v.

 

But in the long run the lsv will make more power and be much more reliable

 

not a big deal to me. i didnt spend 3000 on parts, i spent like 1900 on parts and rest was like labor and machine work. turbo is to much work, always problems, most my friends are boosted and they always have **** breaking and they were well built motors, and lsv is fine for me. no point to me in spending huge dollars to boost when you can barely use it.

 

so true. every turbo dude i know, always says my car would be faster if it was running right. or I maxxed out my injectors blah blah. all motor cars don't have these problems.

 

yep!lol

 

i have bad news guys, damn today was whack! :/

 

what be the bad news buddy?

 

my ls w pr3 pistons, not sure if the head was milled, etc. ( sure it was, though ) is a 10.8:1 compression.
