okay sounds like a plan... save me some money to put into something else. thanks AKlowriderZ71

 

300-350 to the wheels is a cake walk with an LQ4

 

yeah i think with the setup im going with it should be fairly easy to hit my mark

 

Clevite bearings are in... time to wait on all the bolts i ordered today!

 

okay so i need some opinions on reusing the lifters... is it okay to do? the lifters i pulled out appear to be in good condition.. and also the lifter trays

 

i also plan to start tinkering with the wiring harness... when i pulled it off it looked like some wires were cut... going to try to figure that one out. i have a printout from lt1swap but im curious if anyone has any helpful pointers or how they did there harness

 

Lifters aren't that bad in price so if it were me I would run new ones. Are you doing a cam swap or stocker? Aftermarket cam requires new lifters IMO.

 

I know lifters are relatively cheap im just curious what i can get away with...
im going with comp cams xr275hr... its a mild cam. going for good streetability

 

Bad news.... had my crank check out and the threads are too messed up from the incident with the harmonic balancer...

 

Get another crank...see if any yard local has a core motor
