6. Power hone bores to correct surface finish

7. Balance rotating group to aircraft tolerances

8. Glass bead ports and chambers

9. Cylinder head porting stage 3

10. Cut for oversized valves

11. Valve job, multi angle seats and grind valves, equalize valve heights

12. Cut spring pads for 1.437 springs

13. Clean and assemble heads, sct springs etc.

14. Custom forged pistons to specs

So when I talked to the shop they told me it was a 545 stroker motor and that the guy who had it built had everything done to it that they offered. Next up supercharger upgrades and like I said thank you Tony, Bobby, and Steve.

Looks interesting, hopefully the Paxton will move enough air to fill it up!!!!!

 

[Troy's QC SRT]

Any driveline work done besides the motor as in tranny rearend? A stock tranny wont last long with that beastly setup

 

[Tonkasmith]

I know the tranny has a shift kit and then like 8 hours in custom tuning it for current setup, but I am not hard on it off the line so I figure it will be fine for awhile. At some point I am gonna hit Tony up to see what I should do but I figure one thing at a time for now.

Nice build

 

[SrtBrad]

good luck someone did something very similar on here already and the little paxton ......

 

[Tonkasmith]

I know the Paxton isn't the biggest but 700 whp is plenty and mid elevens would be awesome.

 

[yellowfever#154]

The Paxton wasn't capable of supplying enough air to produce any boost on the builds that had head, intake, and cam work done to them.

Do a search under FSTJACK or Ramfromhell, they both went through this with the Paxton and both then ended up with the Procharger.

thanks

Some had to finish the ........ From your previous post

 

[JTS VENOM PERFORMANCE]

I got the full build sheet, he is already way above what they were able to achieve, he will most likly make his mark, sometimes doing things normal instead of big helps more than most think

 

[SrtBrad]

Have any of your fi builds even been completed?

 

[Tonkasmith]

I talked to Tony and Bobby and Steve and they all said it would be fine to 700 and that all I need to do is upgrade the pulleys and fuel system and intercooler

Good looking out Tony lol damn being new to this

I think Bobby did and he ran mid elevens if I can remember correctly.

he has a 545 cubic motor? with a paxton?

 

[JTS VENOM PERFORMANCE]

no sir brad , I havent completed anything

nothing that I will devulge at this time anyway:aetsch:

 

[Tonkasmith]

I don't know if it is stroked or not but a stock pulley 5-7 pounds gave me 623 whp so I have no reason to believe that 12-13 wouldn't give me my goal of 700

 

[yellowfever#154]

Good luck!

It has been done twice before on large builds and the Paxton doesn't work. Both builds we're huge high dollar deals, both tried pulley combinations and both failed. Smaller pulleys = belt slippage. Just ask Eric what it did to his beautifully polished engine components, everything is now powder coated black.

The only way this motor will build boost is if you don't touch the heads and if you plan a camshaft specifically for it to work.

I hope Tony can make this work, just as he has claims that Mike's truck will have some big numbers with a Roe.

I still don't understand why you guys wanting big numbers are messing around with the Paxton and Roe. The Procharger will produce your 700hp wish with ease, and no b.s. with belts and crappy fuel system upgrades.
