Race Motor Build-up

Since I scrapped the subie-swap due to classing issues I had to build a motor that would be able to get similar power, this should be able to do it.

Thought I'd share my progress with you guys as I build my race motor. I accidentally started assembling it this weekend (you know how it goes, you put all the motor bits in one place and it's hard to keep them apart) so here's some progress pics.

The motor specs:

2165cc turbo
CB super case, 7.0 deck, 10mm head studs
78mm forged race crank
94mm forged pistons w/ total seal 2nd ring
CB 5.7" super race rods, chevy journal
CB 044 cnc mini wedge port heads, ls1 k-motion springs, cb forged 1.3:1 rockers
K8 cam, 107 lc, 308 dur, .491" lift with 1.3:1 rockers
28mm light weight lifters
CB straight cut gears
4 gear dry sump pump
giant oil cooler w/ fan
3gal sump tank
dtm shroud
CB quick tune turbo/efi kit
turbo tbd

nice clean work area..




That didn't last long




purty heads



When I openned the case I found some corrosion, really wasn't expecting it



When men do dishes, this is what we think of...


Got things drying out now ready for some oil


Quick test of the bearings and case, this shot was after i split it again
