It's not dead yet though, right? Or is that it.

 

Are you running head studs Kyle?

 

It's still running fine on low boost. I just got back from a short drive for a gas retune (E85 experiment is over ). And ran it in low (7psi) boost and everything ran fine. It's a stock motor, except for the cam and springs swap. Never been out if the truck, just over 78k on it. I think I just got to aggressive with the timing. I'm sure I could just put some gaskets and studs in it and be just fine, but might as well put that time and money toward something that will last me a long time

 

damn kyle atleast you found what the stock 4.8 could hold with not being to much of a catastrophic failure

 

btw how much is methanol right now?

 

How much timing are you running on regular gasoline anyway. Or whats the difference.

 

I can get meth from the same place I get the E85 from for $3.55 a gallon.

I was running 17-18* and spraying meth on 91 oct before.

 

isnt your 4.8 build suppose to be something to watch?

 

my 4.8 build? if your talkin about the pics of the turbod 4.8, thats Quik a former member..guess i might ought to tell him about this..haha i could see that ****** blowin that up

 

That really is the 4.8 that could. How fancy are you going to get with that 5.7?

I've been looking at using this kit put together by scoggin dickey for my 5.3L block I recently acquired.
