Alright as of today I ordered a long block from VSR out of tampa with custom 10.1 CP pistons, ARP Head Studs (85ft lbs) and a cryogenic treatment of most everything. Have to wait 4 weeks on the pistons and roughly another 2 weeks for the build. Also need a DW65A fuel pump since the one that gtm provides (walbro 255)is only good for around 5oowhp and also need some 1000cc injectors. The 255 may actually work with the larger injectors but why chance it..
tibal and fuct like this.

What kind of rods? Did you get the coatings on the pistons?

Good call on the fuel pump, it's too cheap to not do.

K1 rods... They said the pistons didn't need it because of the material. Those cp pistons are supposed to be bad to the bone...

Wierd. Who said that? CP or the shop? CP offers the coatings if they're the same pistons as the ones phunk is having made.
