This is day four of the new motor. It is perfect for me. Torque everywhere, no dead spots. Oddly enough it feels like there is no actual powerband. It pulls just as hard at 3,400 as it does at 6,100. I finally got the idle and hot starts under control. The only bad part is that it surges at anything under 10% throttle, for now.

Callies crank
Eagle rods
Diamond pistons
TR230/230@112+4
Ported 6.0 heads 302@600 stock valves (no numbers with the aftermarkets)
10.5 compression
Comp roller rockers
Double timing chain
and more....

Thanks alot to AP Engineering, Thunder, and Kevin at East Side (for tuning tips).

 

Cool deal man, how does it feel compared to your old Procharger setup?

 

ok you have been gone in the truck for four days now its time to bring it back lol j/k glad to hear its going good later, kevin

 

nice! i always wanted a video of your procharger setup...then i wanted a vid of your 5.7 on the bottle....this time you better get some footage of the 408. kind of like 10 months late but what did you do with your bigger ATI intercooler and did you ever have any reichard pullies? theyre closed till the 16th ive been trying to get a 3.7 pully forever now.......

 

Did you mill those heads any? If so how much?

 

Cool, can't wait to get mine in and running. Our setups are similar, except cam and CR.

 

Sweet!

How does your timing and knock retard look when logging it?

 

I cant fricking wait for mine damnit.

 

How is traction treating you with that setup?

 

It feels just as good as the Procharger (when it was heat soaked) in the summer. Nothing equals the Procharger in the winter. I took 0.040 off of the heads. Timing is set at 26* and I have no knock retard. I have POS 275/45R20s so traction sucks.
I would like to try a bigger cam. However, for now I will stick with this one, I like the torque. Next week, I will start squeezing it.
