Great job on the twins!

How is it running? Got it tuned yet?

Hope it runs strong!

408 Sleeper

It is only just started at this point. There are still a lot of little things to finish. I hope that they will have it on the dyno by next week.
My new short block is almost done. It is a 5.2 stroked to a 7.2 . The block has Darton sleeves, partial hard fill, Milodon four blot cap conversion with deck reinforcement, Ross coated pistons, Crower billet rods and a premium steel crank and oiling and cooling mods. The compression is being raised from 7:5-1 to 8:5-1 and the cam will be going from my present 232-232@.050, 556-556, 110CL +4 to a 224-224@.050, 573-573, 113CL +(haven't decided). I will reuse my heads and intake. This new combination should make even more power, have better street manners and be much stronger.
Then once all the bugs are out I will be ready to sell my SRT-10 truck, as it will now be to slow.

LOL, great progress on your truck man! Too bad you never did the compound system but this in itself is gonna be a lot of fun!! What kind of numbers are you expecting and at what psi?

408 Sleeper

I really have know idea on the numbers. With the 2.4 Kenne Bell and at 6 lbs of boost it made 445 at the wheels. Then the IAT's would build like crazy and power would drop off to under 400. I know my tuner is planning on 13-15 psi as a starting point and adjusting on the dyno from there. I hope that it will go well into the 500's, but who knows.
