Has anyone used Crower 404's with matching valvetrain in an LS with CTR pistons?????

 

ttt

 

I am using 403's and I want to run the same pistons, so bump for this guy!! Props to another Non-Vtec'er, hit me up in about 3-4 months Im working on something cool, as far as NON vtec goes

 

I use to run 404 with Type r pistons and it worked great!

currently building this setup in my LS... ive heard many good things.

 

I am hoping that it only gets better.............but does anyone have results???

 

I've got CTR's in my LS. I'm waiting on the head to be finished from the shop. I'll clay the pistons very soon and if you remember to IM me in about a week I can tell you exactly how much clearance there is. I'm hoping for 180+ WHP and a Tq curve that will be out of this world! I'll have it running in about two weeks and on the dyno in about a month.


This is what pistons are supposed to look like.

 

you guys are running the nonvtec LS head??

or are you talkin LSvtec here?

 

yea what he said

 

Non vtec heads.

I'm running CTR pistons with Colt Race cams (similar to 404's) in my new build. My motor is being pulled as we speak. I work slowly, so my new setup should be in within the next few weeks.

I'll be claying my motor before install, although I'm not overly concerned with piston to valve clearance.

cool!! nonvtec =
originality

 

good luck

 

u guys got any sound clips of your motors? or video or anything?

I had an allmotor d15b7 setup for a while,
nowhere near as strong as an LS, but it was similar, non-vtec.. lotsa cam.. heh.
sounded cool as ****, wondering what an ls setup sounds like.

if only the LS didnt weigh so damn much.

 

im going to be using them in my b20z non-vtec build, ive only heard good things about them.

 

using what? the cams? or the pistons?

 

cam's, pistons i plan on IB spec wiesco's or rollerwaves

I will IM you in a week..............Did you say what cams you are going with?

I had really good results with my CTR's and Stage 2 Guide Bullfrog cams so I am hoping the 404's will be even better. Look in my sig for the times.

 

hi i see that you are in need of sum b18b intake and exhaust valves cuz i have a set off my b18a intake n exhaust valves used if you need sum

 

what kind of powerband do the 404's yield?

 

With a non-ported LS head, and 2.25" exhaust system (DC 4-2-1 / comptech catback)

My peak powerband is from 5,000 - &gt; 6,500 rpm

But I gained tons of torque from 2,000rpm +

What was the peak?????????

 

135ft/lbs of torque at 5,500rpm and 165whp at 6,500rpm

 

How did it feel down low...........say around 2k to 4k???? I mean was the car really strong or gradual?

 

how do you all motor LS guys feel about oversize intake valves? What kinda gains? Im thinking about these in my set up

 

I like the idea of running non-vtec, is it better in a way???
