Skandulous ss Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 How? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> more compression equal more power period. there are 3 main ways to up the compression shave your heads or mill the the deck get domed pistons or get a longer stroke in the crank and you can get alot of that done within 5 grand range there is no substitution for compression or cubic inches thats were horsepower comes from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenKey Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 I'd say at the crank, plausible. At the wheels, nearly impossible unless you found someone nearly giving stuff away. I guess you could add a few things then do a 150 shot. That may get you close. Assuming a 20% loss to the wheels, that is. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> well for around 5 grand the shop i goto in fl he can have the heads ported and polished new roller rockers and a mild hydraulic cam and some domed pistons to up the compression those #s are very reachable..... i dont see why most go with the quick supercharger or turbo for around 5 grand when all you get at best is round 130whp and i can take same 5 grand redo the engine and internals and get an increase of 275 or more whp <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Okay. So what are the details of a NA motor with 625 crank hp - for less than 5 grand. Any dyno sheets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iwineng03ss Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 wow...its almost been a month and no one pointed out the obvious.....paint it black <{POST_SNAPBACK}> or put twin turbos on it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F8L Z71 Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Compression isnt going to give you more power than a properly setup turbo or blower. The general formula on the LQ and LS motors usually only give what 15-20rwhp per point of compression if you're lucky? Not saying you can't make great power N/A because its obviously been done but you will hit a wall and now the only thing you can do is add nitrous.

But, unlike some with stroker builds, I doubt I have 600+hp at the crank. Firmly in the 500 mark, maybe. I think what you're saying will get you close, but not quite there IMO. Maybe I am more into actual numbers than those that come on here and claim they have something without proof to show it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
