If you want a more accurate number it would be a 6.0141L.

 

Sorry.. I can only count to Potato....

 

Potato is 2.2. but seriously lets stay on topic here.

 

EGR is the biggest killer. Blows head gaskets out. Lifters suck too, and the turbo's...

 

That's what I thought. I don't think I'm going to have to worry about any of those on a 6.0L Magnum though.

 

No there's nothing wrong with the number 6.0. LS2's are great motors (I can't believe I just said that).

Jigabop is a superstitious old woman.

 

Well here's the piston I'm looking at:



Price is $460.64 for a set of pistons and rings.
It'll bump my compression ratio to somwhere between 10.08 and 10.66. I think I can still run 89 octane (correct me if I'm wrong). They require a bore of 4.040", so it'll fit perfectly with my plan.

I'm going to get a set of Mopar performance lifters.
I've decided against headers. SCT Tune is a must. Gonna get a Cloyes double roller timing chain. Going to get Clevite Full Groove bearings of the racing grade.

I haven't decided on what cam or springs yet but I know I do need a different cam and springs. More later.

 

If I was doing that much work, I would do a standard stroker build. Things are more likely better matched form rotating equip to heads. Just a thought. Oddball builds are oddball for a reason.

 

What's a stroker build? What's involved in that?

 

408 stroker. Several threads here on a couple of them.


DerickC and mfarrell (df members) come to mind...
