Default time to raise the bar!

Well I spun the crank pulley on my stock crank and completely ruined the snout. That happened about a month ago, well I figured if your going to tear into the engine, make it better. I ordered the compstar ls1 speed pack 408 kit. Got all the parts in today......Lets just say I am pretty damn happy!

6.0 iron block 0.030 over bore
compstar crank 4"
compstar rods 6.125
diamond pistons 4.030 -28cc dish
hellfire rings
arp head, main, header studs
all pro heads
t&d machine rockers
vic jr intake
FM9 cam 232/234 585/598 114
comp pushrods, timing chain
melling oil pump
ls7 lifters
nasty performance 1000+ horse fuel system
and to top it of.....Procharger F1C

I am going to start getting this sucker together tomorrow. I can not wait to have it up and running. Everyone else seems to be getting 408's, I am just trying to keep up. The truck crowd has really blown up in the last couple of years.

I knew you would chime in. This is what happens when you get beat, you go overboard. I just can't get that damn race out of my head!
