hodge Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Hey Jamie. Would you mind keeping a track of the total cost of all parts needed and letting me know please. Minds on overdrive sitting here. Cheers mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted January 7, 2010 Author Share Posted January 7, 2010 Hey Jamie. Would you mind keeping a track of the total cost of all parts needed and letting me know please. Minds on overdrive sitting here. Cheers mate. Hey mate, I already have a new oil/water pump and gasket set, not sure what they cost now. ARP Head Studs ARP Main Studs BC Connecting Rods CP pistons GSC stage 1 cams The above was $3000 give or take a few $, Dusty has not sent me the final invoice yet. I will most probs go with the brand new PHR supertech head at $2600 I reckon total spend on parts will be about £4000 and should give me a very nice engine, you could do it a lot cheaper with a good secondhand head i suspect.

JamieP Posted January 7, 2010 Author Share Posted January 7, 2010 Cheers jamie. Im just looking at different options to 3.4 and the pricing between them. If i was going with the turbo you have in mind then i would say 3.4 is a good option, at my level i dont think the extra money will be worth spending.

hodge Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I hope I get a couple of years out of the current engine so I can save my pennies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 Everything is ordered now to be sent straight to lee for assembly. I went with the brand new PHR supertech head in the end, dusty is fitting the GSC stage 1 cams for me with shimless buckets so that is a simple drop on head for Lee.

I was going to say J make sure you go with the shimless buckets if you want to rev it high, wise choice with the BC rods, they do come with the 625++ bolts dont they as these are stronger than the Carr one in the carrillos.

I'm not sure who told you they were stronger, but they weren't telling the whole story. The BC625 rods have ARP fasteners in two options. ARP 2000 or ARP custom age 625+. The ARP 2000 bolts can handle 1448 Mpa, and the 625+ can handle 1930 Mpa. Whereas the Carillo's come with a choice of H11 or multiphase bolts. The H11 bolts have a UTS of 1516 Mpa and the multiphase bolts have a UTS of 1992 Mpa. So yes the 625+ is stronger than the H11, but the multiphase bolts are stronger than the 625+. If installed correctly, the Carillo bolts can handle well in excess of 10,000 revs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smarties Carillo's came with the same. It's academic really as when fitted correctly, they're all massively over-spec for what any of us would use them for. I have heard some horror stories of people not installing them correctly though where the UTS then becomes massively more important though.
