2bseen Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 I have the short block ready and just waiting on the heads, cam and head gaskets. C5r 427 ci with callies crank, lunati rods, and mahle pistons is all assem. and ready. I am going with Et 240 heads with 68 cc cambers and comp xer cam. Should have 11.6 to 1 compression. I am hoping to have it all together and in the truck in 3 weeks. I sold my motor yesterday and getting to go run it the last time this weekend in a street car shootout. My only worry is that the truck intake cant get enough air on the top end rpms. If only we could get a 90mm t.b. to work . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt rem Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Speartech has made the harness, you need to change the TAC and it should all be plug and play for the LS2 90mm TB. It was tested by BlownChevy, he has it working now on his truck with the Radix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenKey Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 C5R sure sounds nice. Wonder what the mpg will be on that sucker? How much N2O do you plan to throw at that thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
