Any idea on this setup?

Ok, I am a cheap bastard....lets get that out of the way to begin with.
I am building a "budget" engine. Here is what is planned so far.

Eagle Forged 3.875" crank
6.0" H-Beam Rods
JE Custom Pistons 9.0:1
Home ported heads with valves cutout to 2.02I 1.60E
Custom Cam from Comp 114 Center 114 LSA
Intake Lift .547 Dur. 227
Exhaust Lift .552 Dur. 250
1.6 Pro Mag Rockers
50 lb. Injectors
52mm TB.
50hp wet shot of nitrous
MSD 6AL BTM
Jet Hot full length headers & 3" duals
P600b with 2 row intercooler pullied up to make about 12lb untill I find a good enough deal on a better setup.


Will this combo break 500hp? Is there anything else I need to consider? Does that cam sound sufficient for a streetable car?

Let me know what all you experts think.

Re: Any idea on this setup?

Cam sucks. way too much exhaust duration.

Why a forged crank for that little power? I would get a scat cast 3.750.. and get the off the shelf JE pistons with a 5.7" rod. (-31cc)

It should make over 600hp if built right. to be honest, it kinda sounds like you thumbed through a catalog and said "that sounds cool!". I would highly reccomend you consult somebody that is an LT1 expert when doing final part selection and assembly

I agree. Everyone's definition of streetable is different, but I would not like that cam in my street car. (one of the nice things about forced induction is that ginormous cams are not necessary to make decent power)

The reason for the forged crank is I already have it, I did some trading for the crank and rods. Might as well use them. As for the cam, this is the specs that Comp gave me. Any recommendations on something else?

Ive pretty much learned that you shouldnt listen to comp. A good well rounded blower cam would be a 224/236 cam on a 114lsa. Ive known people with identicle setups that have made 500+ but have yet to see anyone make 600hp with the p600 by it self. Good luck.

Try cam motion they are good when it comes to recommendations. when I ran a blower I had a 220/230 114 cam. That worked very well. The part number might be cc306
