I AM BUILDING A 4.6 2V AND I BUILT THE BOTTOM END.
COBRA STEEL CRANK, BILLET FLY WHEEL,MANLEY H BEAM
RODS,JE FORGED PISTONS,PORTED AND POLISHED HEADS,
VALVES,SPRINGS,ARP BOLTS AND STUDS ALL THROUGH IT.
SO IT SHOULD BE BULLIT PROOF BUT I DONT KNOW WHAT SIZE CAMS IM GOING TO RUN. IM TRYING TO SEE WHAT OTHER PEOPLE R RUNNING BEFORE I BUY CAMS.I ALSO PLAN ON RUNNIN LIKE A 100 SHOT ON TOP OF THIS.
IF ANYONE HAS SOME INPUT ON WHAT THEY HAVE DONE OR KNOWS ABOUT THESE MOTORS IT WOULD BE APPRIECIATED.

[Mad]

I dont know what cams you should get, but I know if I had that setup, I'd be running more than a 100 shot.

you can go bower just cant push to much boost

I would say stay with NOS if your comp is that high

i lowerd mine to 8.5:1 but I new I wanted to run up to 25psi at some point for know im goin to stay at about 16-18 not sure how much my novi will push with the current set up but it should be more on the 18psi side

hopeing 18 will be enough to push what wicked 281 is pushing to the ground

but will see in about a month when I dynoe it

If you dont mind me asking, how much would a combo like yours be?

also, is it possible to put that kind of combo in a automatic?

well let me see
novi2000rr $3300
fastrack intercooler $1300
short block $3500
heads with cams, valve springs,
valves and port work $1500
bullit intake $1000
canton 7QT oil pan $300
oil cooler $60
clutch spec stage IV $325
accu fab thottle body $325
50# injectors $500
fuel system $1200
BBK long tubes jet coated $420
pro chamber off road H $250
and labor well saved on that did it all my self [Big Grin]

about 15g's so far and the price of the car was 20k when i bought it new

so yea I could of bought a 03 cobra with what I have spent but It would not even come close to what my 2valve will do when Im done

about your automatic well it would have to go
you would have to get a lentech couse the auto can only handle about 400rwhp max before it breaks on you

i started to build my motor last year and parts were more expensive then.now parts are a little bit cheaper. i am probbally into the motor about $7000 so far i still have to pay labor and buy cams,oil pan,head studs,mass air meter and injectors.

these mptors r expensive to build but hopefully the out come will be good. [Eek!]
