Is it worth it?

Lowpros24 · 11-10-2010, 01:01 PM

Alright I am going to be putting my alero away soon for winter to be worked on. im focused on the motor this this year, as well touching up the car fro normal where and tear. I went to wot-tec.com and found this http://wot-tech.com/shop/all/3400-st.../prod_273.html

for 2 grand i guess it isnt bad, i would also add a 64mm throttle body but dont know where to go from there, with getting the right air and fuel mixture, or would that be tuned out if i were to get it tuned out with this package?

Pretty much what I have, and going to have.

Waiting on my cam now. Probably will be doing diamond forged pistons with a 10.5:1 CR and .020 over into the 3400 block I picked up for $100 (after machining of course. Also the crank/timing set as well.

This requires a full rebuild of your engine

yea i figured there would be more to due if i were to get this package,
i'd like to keep in touch with you since you have what im looking at. maby you can point me in the right directions on what to get for the block. transmission and such, these next couple of months ill be getting these parts to put on during winter. right now all i have is cold air intake with ine of those tornado things in there,and a catback exhaust. looking to get headers but cant find a good set.

Q: now for the 3400 I though that I can only get that ported to 64mm max on the 3400 any higher i need to go with 3500,
but in package ,Its either 62mm or 65mm, or would wottech port the manifold to spec with whatever throttle body I get if I order it with the
package

that tornado thing, lol just some type of insert that goes in throttle body tubing that spins the air as it sucks in the manifold, supposed to be better on gas witch I don't see at all

.....you actually bought one of those??

^^ For real!

Think about it, you are going to put something INSIDE your intake, to increase power?

And just to clear it up, I don't HAVE all this stuff done, yet.

I have on the car right now, Stage 2 upper and lower manis, headers, full exhaust, WAI (converted to CAI for track use) and mild P&P heads, milled .020, rises CR to 9.7:1, LS6 springs and 3500 valves.

I just ordered the Street/Strip cam from WOT-TECH which is a .506/.506 max lift, they take 3 weeks to grind, and I'm going to be ordering the diamond forged pistons at 10.5:1 CR and .020 over. Also the crank and timing set too, and the crank scraper for shits and giggles.

Trans is stock, but Milzy has 2 options. a build 4t65, or a manual 6 speed
