got the pi motor in now wat?

[seth_96_gt]

Well guys I got the 00 pi motor in the 96 now I'm debating my next step already got full intake exhaust gears programmer deleted the AC debating a Kenne bell or trick flow heads. What do you guys think. Should be my next step

 

[94-427]

trick flow heads would make the best of any futher upgrades
run the trick flow heads!!!!

 

[BruhBrahBrad]

kenne bell.

 

[JDwhite98gt]

Heads now would be kind of counter-productive since he just dropped the motor in. I say boost the BITCH

 

[Ninety8stang]

I <3 boost!

figure out what you want to do with the car and go from there. Do you want a power adder car or do yo uwant an all motor car?

 

[seth_96_gt]

my goal is to get a mid 11s 2v

How do you plan to get there, do you want a daily driver, do you want a nitrous car do you want a turbo car do you want a supercharger car???

If you take your car, swap a stock PI block in there and toss an SI trim on there youll see 11.60's with a stick if you know what your doing. IF spray is what you fancy get ready for a 150 shot ( i think is what my bud was running) and some good suspension, k member, lca's and adjustable shocks all around are a must. If you want to be baller and do it all NA, take that pi long block and throw it in the trash. You wll need serious parts to make it go.


Figure out what the purpose of this car is and from there you can decide what yo uwant to do.

I'm with the duff meister, depends what you want from the car. If like you said you just want a car that will run mid 11's and you dont care how to get there, just throw on nitrous, blower, turbo...upgrade fuel and be done.

+1 for N/A monsters! but seriously you cant go wrong with a vortech if you want to get 11s now. i think you would be more proud of a N/A motor but thats just me.

There are very few 2v na's which run mid 11's most are race cars that run the "factory stock" class in NMRA

Hi tech stage 2 cams, 9" rear end, drag suspension. slicks, and an assload of weight reduction!

Why do you suggest a 9"?

 

[GrnGt]

Idk I hear they are the best to run. What would you suggest?

 

[seth_96_gt]

well ideally i plan on goin forced induction some point this winter if i dont get laid off (again) i got a centri blower on the 94 and im not to pleased with it kinda doggy granted its the old p600b antique but thats why iv been pondering the idea of running a kb

Keep the 8.8 Its a strong rear end and when its braced correctly, its a great piece. Weld axle tubes and new plug welds, get some good axle tube braces, and go from there. You can cut and put 9" ends on it if your going to run a spool, but to put a 9" in one of your cars and not use it, is quite pointless.


And to the OP

Go with a Procharger, get a new kit and lit up the sky man, a good blower with good suspension and a consertive tune yo ucan see 400 wheel and 11.7's all day.
