Subject: putting together my 355 LT1, questions by bam on 2012/2/1 1:57:17 Picked up my block, crank & pistons from the machine shop today, will be putting it together myself over the next few days, weeks. A few questions; (93 LT1, 355, hot cam, Mahle pistons, recon. rods) 1. What head gasket(I know there is one that bumps the comp. ration up a tiny bit, is that the impala)? 2.Where can I find the oil pump drive that interfaces with the cam drive? Checked Rock Auto NA 3.I have added Trick Flow 185 heads, can I still get by with my FIC 24lb injectors? 4.When I prime the oil pump with the intake off how long can I wait before then putting the intake on and the motor in the car? (is it a problem if it is a week or two) 5.Any other advice is appreciated, things to remember to do while in there (it's been 15 yr since I last assembled a motor)? Thanks |
