My total cost will end up being about $1800 after all misc stuff... I also plan on getting a wide band 02 sensor, buy wont be able to afford it right away. so I'll run premium until I can monitor it.
Some pice of the parts....
wrapped manifold to help lower the intake temps.
Bored TB to 60mm straight threw....
High volume T/stat housing
High flow W/P
High Volume oil pump
Mopar gasket kit
Mopar valve springs
Hesco "performance" valve rocker kit.... (couldn't justify the $$$ for rollers at this time, maybe later once I've recovered financially)
rocker vs rocker
And all of it... with new coolant temp sensor/crank pulley dampener and a few other non listed items...
Taken from the calculator on this site...
Bore - 3.895
Stroke - 3.895 (making it square)
7120 head (shaved 0.10" to make flat) lost about 1.3cc per chamber making it 56.6 correct?
Keeping stock deck clearance .0215" correct? (doesn't change with stroker setup)
Headgasket 0.051"
Pistons 15.8cc Sealed Power.
Cam duration 250
Cam separation 113
Cam Deg advanced 3*
Resulting with-
SCR of 9.74-1
DCR 8.37-1
Quench 0.0725"
Just waiting on the machine shop to finish the 3 angle valve grind, then I'll pull my motor and get it going... Hopefully It will all work out smoothly and run good for me...
