Just thought i would give you guys a heads up on our latest build what we are building. Were almost finished with the project.
2000 Chevy Truck 4wd Extended Cab w/ 8" Lift on 36"s
Project includes
-6.0L Iron Block
-Stock Stroke
-4.030 Bore Diamond Pistons
-Lunati I Beam Rods
-Blower Cam
-Patriot Stage II Heads
-Arizona Longtubes
-Studed & O-ringed block
(F1 Procharger w/12 PSI of boost) 3 Core Intercooler
-------------------------------------------------------
(Fuel System)
-Areomotive 500GPH Fuel Pump & Regulator
-1/2" fuel line 8AN from the bottom of the tank to the motor (3/8" Line to each rail)
-65 lb. Precision Injectors
We have had it to together once before. The motor spun the crank pully as well as lifted the heads with the heads torqued down to 85lbs. So now we gave the bearings a little more clearance keyed the crank pully and o-ringed the block & heads using copper gaskets. Hopefully the heads stay down. It diffinetly had a ton of power though. Watching the Speedo at 40MPH we stood on it and it broke the 36" tall tires loose pitching it sideways. :D
Although it is mainely a sand dune toy I would like to get some times and dyno numbers on it before it goes.
Pics and Videos Soon

It willl be done in a few weeks. We are just waiting on the machine shop, rings, and headgaskets. Fuel system is complete as well as everything else.

how did those patriot heds treat you? I've been reading about some apparent quality issues (flatness/true surfaces) with them lately.
