I just recently built a high c/r LsVtec with PCT pistons..i just wanted to get some input on whether ma stock rods and fasteners for the bottom end and gsr head bolts are going to hold together ..any feedback is greatly appreciated..thanks

 

you know how to build a lsvtec but you cant answer your own question it is always a good idea to upgrade rod bolts and headstuds thats just common sense

 

i do plan on upgrading to arp fasteners...but i had to put it together quickly for a race...this coming weekend...

 

I also want to know if this is a good combination other than the fasteners...

 

its alright for a street race if tuned

 

ready for this weekend?

No i mean.. stupid build..
Like its dumb to build this motor with CTR pistons read up on some searching.. you obviously have no idea.

 

yea hope u got a good tune and some good gas...

 

Running good..tuning done with crome..pumping 110 through the veins of this beast...lots of top end!!

 

By top end I hope you mean 7500rpms...
Not trying to flame, but really, that's one thing you should not have skimped on. And I'm guessing you got a good deal on those pistons...P73-00 pistons wouldve been a better choice...

Good luck reving that beast with those stock rod bolts

 

yeah I'm working on getting some rod bolts, as i've been told bout heavier ctr pistons..and how ls rods don't like that too much.

Yup..haven't takin it to 8k yet...still waiting for rods and arp bolts to come in..hopefully by this weekend i should have head studs too...

 

Slapped a motor together for a race? Waste of time, money, effort... period. Even with ARP rod bolts and head studs im scared to turn over 7500 in an LS/VTEC without a VTEC oil pump. Bet you dont have one of those either.
