My valve trane's dead, I'm getting all new valves, springs, stage 2 cams...I wanted to know if its a good idea to go with 11 5:1 Je pistons while the motor is apart? What kind of power cans should I expect?

 

if you do, i don't think you expect much power unless you are FI.

 

what cams are you getting?

crower makes cams, but i heard they lose power. only other option out there is toda right now.

 

skunk 2

 

skunk 2's are still pretty new.

how much do they change the curve?

 

lol your valve train too, i just went threw a valve dropping out, cause the stem snapped in half, isnt FI fun.

 

Yeah I think I'm just going to rebuild the head only. The stock block is already 11.0 compression. Why would I need to go 11.5:1 for?

 

the skunk2 cams that got tested lost power too and had other issues as well

i thought you were the one wanting the 11.5 je's? why now are you questioning that? there is no real apparent need or purpose to get higher compression pistons at all to be honest if you are just rebuilding the valvetrain just extra money that you dont need to spend man. put it into a 4.77 final drive
