1. break in is very specific, prime it with oil, no dry cranking...
fire it up, hold the revs to around 2500 for about for about 10 mins, warm water in radiator...
then for another 20 mins or so..... then change the oil...
no boost etc...
2. we are doing alky also...
3. i do the tuning, unless we bring someone in for certain events

Question for JAM?
We run the balance shafts in ALL of our 2.3 and 2.4 builds due to increased Internal Harmonics created by the 2.4 stroke crankshaft. These Internal Harmonics can cause serious issues for the life of the engine. When running the balance shafts in place it will allow the engine to not only run smoother (internally speaking) but release more HP and last far longer then without them. Balancing the rotating assembly is only part of the entire issue revolving "Harmonics". We have had EVO owners call us with their horror stories of their failed stroker builds, where sides of the engine blocks were breaking and blowing out, flywheels and crankshaft pulleys would be falling off after very little running time. All of this is caused by the violent- Internal Harmonics of the flat4 engine. We custom machine all of balance shafts for each and every custom 2.3 and 2.4 we build. Not a single failure to date, only strong running, long lasting engines.
Thank you CB!
Thank you CB!
For your 2.3 or 2.4 motors - What do you consider a safe and reliable max RPM. Not for drag racing, but for road racing.
Also are you running stock length rods or longer?
I love college, I keep on getting older and the girls keep on getting younger.
You seem like a very meticulous individual and that can be seen in almost all your pics.
Keep us updated on progress.
