I have a Vortech V1 T-Trim supercharger I plan on freshening up and changing the bearings to safely turn up to 61k RPM. Custom crank pulley and the smallest supercharger pulley up top to get around 10-12 PSI with water/meth. Motor should sit right around 9-9.2:1 depending on what we find out with the piston to deck height.

I am aware I am leaving the rings out, don't know what the best ring is to run on a supercharged motor. I'm going to see what cam Lloyd Elliot suggests, I know a lower lobe seperation might not be best for a centrifugal supercharger but I really love the sound of the 232/240 .578/.574 110 LSA.
LE1 Heads (mainly interested in just having the heads freshened up but for $1,300 with a cam and another $160 for shipping both ways I can't beat it) http://elliottsportworks.com/?page_id=51
I'm not concerned about rockers, lifters, pushrods, gaskets, injectors or any of that other stuff. I've built a few motors and have a descent understanding (I like to at least think this lol).
Not looking to build a daily driver or a road warrior but I'd enjoy having something fun to go to work or drive around in the summer (and go to the track with). Throughout the entire winter I will be buying stuff piece by piece or whatever money I get in OT snow plowing I'll put directly towards the build. |
I will throw my two cents in here. The rotating assembly parts look fine but make sure the pistons are 2618 material. Not mandatory but 4032 stuff can be a bit brittle.
For the heads, might as well have them max ported. You can use stock stuff but honestly, the more CFM you flow, the less boost you need to run to make more power.
Choosing a cam for sound is the wrong way to go about things....period. I loved the way my CC306 sounded but it was a mismatched cam for my old setup. Go with the one recommended.
As mentioned, its a bit silly to put together a combo like this and not think about the rear end or trans. Car won't be much fun when you break either but I won't preach any further. Make sure the entire combo is matched well to your setup. A mismatched combo will simply perform poorly and when considering boost, its the details that will matter.
