Im Rebuilding A 3.0l

[acclaim200hp]

hi im new to this great site

im rebuilding a 3L for my acclaim where would be the best place to get some performance parts : pistons, cam, crank etc.....

Well, do you want to boost it or keep it N/A? If N/A do you want to run stock compression or high compression? You can use mitsu diamante pistons and raise the compression to 10:1. Do want forged internals?

[DustyR/T]

Forged crank and rods are a waste of money unless you're boosting well over 20psi. My pistons cost $800 for .100 overbore from Ross. Ian helped me out a lot. Hell, if I was going high compression, I would do something like 12:1. I like boost because you can keep stock compression/non-interference factor and rev w/o worry as well as have a flexible power table depending on your boost setting. Want more power, turn up the boost. I like that.

i will be adding boost supercharging to be exact

I dont think a sohc can ever make enough power to overcome the cast crank.

The 6g72 only has ONE rod design, forged. There are different part #'s but only one part.

im not going to crazy with the motor so should i just use NOS internals

[Ondonti]

listen to 93 sundance. the others are turbo obsessed (this is an incurable sickness).

[93sundance]

I'm the N/A man lol. When is someone going to beat my ET N/A??? Hell, I think there are only 2 known ppl with 3.0Ls (N/A OR boosted) that beat my time and have the slips to prove it. Ondonti is one of the 2.

[Jetson8294]

whats your E/T? just curious.. and no matter what you do to the 3.0... there is one and only one word to use when describing this motor... TORQUE

HP is better indicated by the MPH than ET...

[Ondonti]

josh has run 96mph

[c2xejk]

Your point is?

Therefore Im just throwing out #'s
Also his post was TALKING about ET therefore I dont understand why you posted something about MPH when he didnt say anything about power.
Oh, josh, hassler has also run faster then you but he is a cheating turbo user like me.

[c2xejk]

Ok, Stein has run a 98MPH with two people in the car. Not mention generally, G-bodies are heavier than P-bodies... And Steins engine is bone stock internals...

hopefully soon however, i will not have a time slip cause it is at a friends track, must be nice to have a track in your backyard.
