Holy #OOPS#, this thing is awesome... What injectors are you running? Must be huge with that power!

Update time.
I found the limit of stock ca18det pistons finally. They are pretty tuff and were holding up to 25psi really well. Only problem was that the forged motor was waiting and I was running out of patience for the motor to blow so I decided to see what 35psi would do to a stock motor. Unbelievably it lasted a few days before melting a piston and I must say that it was a fun few days. 3rd gear frying no clutch required. anyway here is a pic of my new paperweight.





I was really surprised that the the stock rods held up to the abuse and even the bearings were still in excellent condition.


Now for some forged loving




pistons and rods are balanced, prepped and clearances perfect for big power

12mm bolt won't fit in a 10mm hole. :)

The front brackets go on the outer side of the front spring mounts.

so remove the stock bolt and redrill the inner side to 12mm (currently 10mm). tension it up to your liking as nylock will hold it in place.

1) triangular brackets will need welding to the diff plates.
2) inner side of front eye mount will need to be drilled to 12mm

Any 1200.

ill get some pics up this afternoon

I'm selling some custom made adjustable caltrac bars.

These bars will eliminate axle tramp and allow for a softer spring rate in the rear. Also keeps axles from rotating to help maintain pinion angle.

Made from 6mm plate steel with massive 16mm rose joints.

Do it for sure. If it is already getting machined for pistons etc you may as well deck the block. It is defiantly important when running a mls gasket to have both surfaces perfectly flat. Not too much of an issue with a standard gasket but still a good idea.

Also they won't take much off so no worries with the head gasket thickness. A little more compression is good for off boost response :)

35 is safe ;) ish
seriously though I would be going as much as you can safely on the dyno then back it off to whatever you feel is comfortable.
