Hey guys
Posted awhile back that I was building a twin turbo 318, starting this thread as my official build post.
Bought a 318 Magnum block last weekend off of craigslist, have yet to crack it open, but from cursory looks it appears to be alright. The machine shop will soon tell.
As for parts, on the table I am looking at
Two, T4 Turbo's, Or T3's (depends on budget, which will define how much horsepower I can buy
)
Possibly KB(Keith Black) Forged Pistons, Rings
Forged Rods
Forged Crank
Upgraded Cam
Upgraded Exhaust
(Upgraded Fuel System?)
And ofcourse the engine is getting rebuilt and machine.
The truck it's going into is a Black 1996 Dodge Ram 1500, NV3500 Manual Transmission, 4 Wheel Drive, Regular Cab
I'm hoping for hp numbers between 400-500.
I hope to have this project done early 2010.
Will keep you guys posted, and will have pics as things move along. Any advice you guys want to throw at me your welcome to. Just please, no bashing me for building a 318, it's my money, I want something unique, so there your have it.
