*stock GS-R bottom end
*b16 head milled unknown amount, estimated .005-.015 with a mild port job
*ITR cams with AEM adjustables and some OE B16
*Stock b17 intake manifold, I think it is a pr3
(also a full LS engine and spare P75 head if I wanted to mess with any of that bs)
Goals in order of importance:
*legit, reliable, and properly built for street use- never having to think twice about it's reliability
*Correctly rebuilt meaning proper procedures and precautions taken- balancing etc
*fairly good on gas (will depend heavily on tune of course but suggestions are welcomed)
*8 to 8.5 RPM red-line only on special occasion
*10-11.5:1 compression
*170+ whp
I'm trying to come up with an idea of exactly what I'd like to do with this engine and if it is worth the cost of building it "right" but I am having a hard time finding legitimate information to base my cost/benefit analysis.
Thanks in advance,
