Ya, it's meant for a naturally-aspirated motor.
Plus you need one of these to get more than 10K miles between rebuilds -

sleepyalero 03-31-2012 08:19 PM

yeah i know, ive already got it all planned out, its just a secret cause i want it to be a suprise on here once shes done!

Looking to sell that timing set? How many miles?

I'm already set up for the next cam or 2 down from that

tw0123 03-31-2012 11:33 PM

We traded cars, as soon as mine has the built tranny done, it gets shipped to Matt......

tw0123 04-01-2012 09:06 AM

nice... at least we know both cars will be in good hands...

That would be very generous of you. Too bad all the parts are for NA, otherwise I would be open to buying some.

I sense April Fools on Greg's part... :lol:

In theory, you could make the pistons work for you, but you'd have to be very careful with your tuning.
The static compression ratio will be 11.5:1 with 3400 heads, and about 10.85:1 with 3500 heads.
The pistons are gas-ported, have an anti-friction coating on the skirts, and the tops have been coated with TBC by SwainTech.

Those are very nice pistons Matt, and the swaintech coatings is awesomesauce! However, I have the entire stroker assembly from John's failed build. So really the only thing i'm lacking for my built motor would be some badass heads. I know they will need a lot of work just for my camshaft for clearancing and what not.

mfuller 12-18-2013 10:30 PM

Bumping this back up now that the new mill is mostly together...


mfuller 12-18-2013 10:31 PM

SwainTech TBC (thermal barrier coating) on exhaust ports (also combustion chambers, valve faces and piston tops) and copper-spray coated Cometic MLS head gaskets.


mfuller 12-18-2013 10:31 PM

Close up of exhaust port. These are ported 3500 LX9 heads from WOT-TECH (in fact, most of the parts - heads, pistons, connecting rods, pushrods, intake manifolds, etc.) came from WOT-TECH. I don't recall what level/stage the portwork is, but they're pretty high-zoot.


mfuller 12-18-2013 10:32 PM

The cam is in there somewhere. No installed shots of the DRTC as the front cover was already installed. Camshaft specs are on page 1.


mfuller 12-18-2013 10:33 PM

Intake port and Manley stainless steel valves.


mfuller 12-18-2013 10:34 PM

Overall. Metal LIM gaskets, custom pushrods, PAC 1518 springs, Manley titanium retainers. OEM rocker arms and lifters.


mfuller 12-18-2013 10:35 PM

How's this for Oldsmobile heritage? 442 head castings!


tw0123 12-18-2013 10:45 PM

yummy... looks amazing Matt... cant wait to see this progress even further!!
makes me want to do more to mine hahaha!!

billytheman1188 12-18-2013 10:47 PM

Very nice. Thanks for the pics/update! GL

Thanks.
Enclosed trailer is coming to get the car on Christmas Eve.
As the motor is being swapped, also being installed is the Quaife LSD, NGK AFX Wideband, and a proper set of pedals for a manual transmission.

tw0123 12-18-2013 11:50 PM

Very Nice... who is doing the build? and what are you doing with your current motor?
I am waiting for USPS to drop off my cam, pushrods and valve springs... I still need bigger injectors, heads, etc, as well as waiting for Milzy to get the drtc and timing cover finished for me... :)

xXManwhoreXx 12-19-2013 03:50 AM

Matt.... I love you man...

WhiteV6 12-19-2013 08:35 AM

Hell yeah:)

Build is being done by AES Racing in Elk Grove Village, IL (http://www.aesracing.net).
It'd be nice if I could sell the old motor and re-coup a portion of what this one cost.

But you are the official sedan hater, so when this gets installed, you'll kinda be at war with yourself....right?:lol:

sleepyalero 12-19-2013 11:10 AM

He is a sedan hater

MMGT1 12-19-2013 01:39 PM

Looks good man! If your up for the challenge, you could finish the porting on the heads there. Still man, looks dam HOT!! Good luck with it dude!!

WhiteV6 12-19-2013 02:12 PM

finish the porting on the heads?
