dont forget 1.6 roller rockers. should go with 7/16 rocker studs.

 

I knew I was forgetting something... Sorry I was in a hurry to eat some turkey lol So based on that list you think ill be good to go? im also gonna have the shop do a complete engine bay delete for a nice looking engine bay

I may also need to get a tranny heavy duty kit

 

sounds good to me, give lloyd a call and see what hes got to say. im sure he will have some input.

 

i think that stall is going to be too small for what you're looking for...but that could just be me.

and i'd personally be looking at a different rotating assembly. for something like that, i'd be looking into compstar if it were me

 

yeah maybe youre right on the stall... will see... what you think 2800?

why compstar over scat?

 

compstar is known to be top of the line...look at advanced inductions...all they sell is compstar crankshafts, then i'd use lunati rods and diamond pistons, especially if i was going to be running boost...you don't want to skimp on parts if you're going to be going FI. just asking for trouble.

and as far as torque converter...read my sig...i'm cammed and run a 3600 stall...just something to consider

 

Yo why the heck is compstar so expensive for the rotating assembly... its like 1800 bucks

 

A procharged 383 is gonna have one of the fattest torque curves you can imagine, unless you go with a monstrous cam that isn't specced for the blower. With this in consideration, I'd say a 2500 stall will be sufficient, though I wouldn't turn away something in the 2800-3000 area if you get a good deal.

Edit: In fact, (and this one will probably pull a bit of controversy on this site :P) I'd suggest opting for a 3.55 rear gear. With a build like this you don't need to worry about stalling the car into your torque band, just worry about making sure you effectively use the power band.
