well as you know i have recently done a hudge ammount of work to the iroc my engine is all naked

i got the other head pulled last night man was it easier than passenger side, only thing difficult about the passenger side is that damn exhaust manifold is cramped makes it hard to get to the bolts, so both heads are pulled and i ported one last night man do these heads suck for port size they look pretty nice now

ill post some pics laterz.

 

pics pics!

 

why dont you port some real heads!

 

Git-R-Dun Eric!

Glad to hear you're making progress no matter what heads you're running

 

i wish i had some real heads, but that goes for you too travizzzzz...


how ever i did buy a secret mod credit cards are great

ill bet you will never guess

 

How is the SR porting going?

 

its not going i have no clue what these egr tapped hoels should be plugged up or not...

should it have plugs in it i keep meaning to ask you dwane


i would like to keep egr functional for when i put my twin turbo's on that will help with partial throttle ping/pre detonation..

i havent worried about it cause i havent even started putting my motor back together

so the one's in red my understanding is that those were used for casting so is it ok if i do what you did plug them off and grind them away?

 

Glad to hear everything is going good Eric. Porting the heads is a good thing no matter what kind they are, good luck, you will have to do mine someday. Post pics and keep me updated.

 

I sent you an email with picts.
Yes cap the holes and grind them down. Leave the big dome alone.
The holes are casting cleanouts so the EGR gasses are routed near the TB.

 

Driving lessons?

 

lol, we wish. I know what your secret mod is though Eric. It's heads and cam you got off tgo, ha ha, Travis told me already. Now your secret is out.

My only question is why are you porting the stock heads when you just purchased others?

 

Yeh I saw the classifieds.

Trickflows + Comp cam.

Somebody wants 12's bad.

 

damnit i guess my seceret is out

yea trick flow heads alumnium heads 23degree,
and i dont need driving lessons i need spelling lessons hehe and learn to not to drive like an *** ie cutting people off doing 150

i bought them on saturday night i came across them so i said **** these stock heads and bought those cause they are nice how ever i didnt get the cam cause its solid non roller, and yes i do want 12's ill have a nice set of ported stock heads incase i need them again along with 3 boxes with ac, emissions and random crap i took off...

and dwane what is the size of those thread do you know by chance so i can by a plug

 

I'm not sure on the size.

I'm thinking 3/4 coarse thread.

Mine came with the plugs. You'll never need to mess with this again so make sure you use loctite at the least maybe something stronger.

 

BOOOO

Enter my world

 

damnit u guys are catching up if not passing now i have to get a bigger cam. I'll see u in the 11's club *waves crooked stick*

 

no way ill be the fastest soon enough after i get these heads on and a cam and eveyrthing the only work im doin to it is repairs and maintinence, gonna be workin on my trans am hopefully getting that on the road than

twin turbo's are gonna be slapped on my iroc

 

28th, that's not bad Eric, glad to hear things are working out for you and coming along. Can't wait to see her run. How is the tranny going? Make sure and post some pics of the old heads versus the ported ones, I want to see the difference.

 

hudge.....i brought my camera to the shop but forgot to take them


ill take them tommorrow im gonna go and clean it up and catch up the paper work

 

Sweet man, thanks. Can't wait to see them, I'll be waiting.

 

i spy with my eyes a new seceret mod again...i couldnt pass up on this deal

your only clue is the pics im gonna upload if your observent youll notice whats missing other than the stuff i have to remove for my head gaskets...


TRAVIZ NO GIVING IT AWAY....haha he always guesses right



and here are the pics also of the difference in the ports this must be atleast 10whp

before




after almost done but still some work to do but you get the idea

 

Lookin' good Eric!

My guess: A/C Delete?

 

Thats my guess as well

 

Do I get to guess

Its the

not the A/C delete

 

ac delete was a crappy guess. lol

 

I didn't want to be the one that said it

I'll help you guys out look at the first pic it has no water pump no crankshaft pulley you don't need to take then off to do heads, also no lifters some people may take them off when they do heads but you don't need to

 

Pics look really good Eric. Looks like everything is coming along great, can't wait to see her run. Your porting work looks good, wanna do my heads, lol.? Are you just porting them out, or polishing them a little too?

Oh, my guess for the secret mod is a cam, even a guy like me can see that, ac delete is a really crappy guess, lol.

 

oh can i guess? electric water pump!

ownd!

 

Shut up Travis, you are not allowed to guess cause you always know in advance what it is, lol.

So, who is right Eric?

 

yea cam got a whole kit......an lt4 hot cam, full roler 1.6 rockers, springs, all hardware (ie valve guides,) MMM....

it retails for $800 i got it brand new for $400 or $350 dont remember long story short he got 2 shipped by accident from year one so he sold one for cheap since it didnt cost him nothin.

and my ac has been out for a while

now will if you want me to port your heads thats fine...ill do it for dinner im cheap burgers mmm....

 

Thats a fine cam. You'll like it.

 

Dwayne88IROC I'm still waiting to put this 355 up your *** the next time you're down here at the California Speedway. How long do I have to wait? Oh! by the way, bring the tri-tip and I'll bring the booze

 

....man i cant stop my self im on a spending spree haha

thanks traviz for the hook up on the chrome timing chain cover, and crane cams doubble roller chain

THANKS terrel for the free VERY needed tall perimeter bolt valve covers.

got the pistons, and block cleaned today i took some pics but cant upload them cause i forgot to pay my internet bill doh...

they look brand new so only thing i have left to buy is the actual head gaskets and pushrods but cant get the push rods till i get the heads on got to measure for length..

haha my spending mod spree has not been bad about 2G's but ill practicaly have a rebuild motor minus the short block ....

 

How much are you going to have invested after all that Eric?
Sounds like you're around 12G's.
No excuses now, better be in the 13's whether you can launch it or not, haha.

 

i hope your kidding i better be in the 12's

so heres what i got so far

super ram runners plenium
edelbrock high flow base light ported
ford svo 24lb injectors
1.6 full roller rocker arms
lt4 hot cam 525 lift intake and ex at 218 duration intake and 228ex
112lobe seperation angle with an rpm range of 1k-7K
gm peformance valve springs
trick flow specialties 23degree alum heads 195cc with big valves
headers
crane cams doubble roller chain
unspeed related
chrome timing chain cover
tall valve covers
abbott cable x finally a speedometer

 

Better be slappin' some slicks on or finding some miracle traction/launch technique, otherwise I say low 13's.

 

What's up now Travis, I was right about the cam b*i*t*c*h!
Sounds like a sweet setup Eric, makes me jealous and want to switch to tpi, lol. Get those pics loaded when you can, pay your freaking bill, lol. Anyway, hope the rest of the install goes good, let us know when she is ready to run. Oh, my guess for times is high 12's with improvment once you tune and learn to launch better.

 

i wonder what gave it away

 

now eric will run 14.2@110mph

 

prolly

 

hahaha.
i'll stick with my prediction.

 

sorry Eric, we just don't have much faith in you. You get a little too excited when you drive your car.

 

sh*t let the truth be told my d*ck gets hard when i dump that clutch hahahah ill put on those slicks i have on my side yard and try those out for a day or so than well see whats up 14.2 at 110 12.8 at 111

 

your brother is still faster.

 

lol, I wish I had that problem, at first my d*ick get's hard then after I punch it it's all down hill from there, lol, it's this damn CFI. Anyway, good luck with those times.

 

than switch to tpi already than in one form or another, super ram, stealth ram, lt1 intake, miniram, edelbrock high flow,

and maybe if you punched it once in a while i dont know how you can be so nice to your car i cant stand it but every time i get in the iroc but to use a tank a day lol

 

Oh man!

I gotta get down there now! All that smack talk and I'm biting my tongue.

 

why do people say 355 it sounds gay. My Iroc has a 355 and I call it a 350. as long as I have a 3.48" stroke its a 350

 

Well as long as my BORE is .030" over I'm calling my a 355 because it's those extra 5 cubes baby, size matters
