Hey N.Neff,

I was tied up for a bit! I ordered ARP bolts that could be used with a windage tray but found that because it's a stroker the tray doesn't have enough clearance for the crank. I looked online but I couldn't find a tray for use with a stroker.

I did use the Engine RPM calc. and found that with my van the way it sits now will be at,
2000rpm=71.77mph
2500rpm=89.72mph

My goal is to get my best mpg at around 75mph. I still have to check the piston to deck clearance so I can get an accurate measure for compression.

This is the info on the rotating assy.

I hope to have enough time to plug in the info to figure out the compression. Thanks for all of your great input!!

Chuck-the thing is with those advertized C/R's you don't know where they set the deck height.Kind of the reason for you to make it more about what yours is.Btw-I am Terry.

I just had to swap cylinder heads. The patriot performance heads I had on order, i found out that they did not work on vortec style manifolds. I upgraded them to the Edelbrock 60979 Aluminum heads. I also found that the cam that was originally recommended to me was wrong too, So I ordered another camshaft is more Tq based. I don't have the grind info yet (forgot to write the part# down). Once I get all of my ducks in a row I will hopefully be able to calculate the compression.

Chuck-with a EFI for tuning you need to be very careful with a cam selection for the duration and lope centers.Under 230 on the duration and something in the order of a lop center like 112 or 114.

I just called summit and got their part #CCA-08-300-8. . This is what they recommened for a vann like mine that is on the heavier side. What do u think! I will post the specs wheni get home. Thanks! Chuck
here are the specs.

Grind Number CS 262H-R12

That does look like a very easy tune-able cam.What is you game plan for the EFI??.

For now I just picked up a newer style spider fuel injection assy. so I will build it with that for now and send the computer to pcmforless and have it tuned. My plan is to use what I have and have it dyno'd and send the dyno sheet along with the computer so he can program it using the dyno info and A/F info.

With a new build engine and EFI's-it is important to keep trial and error tunes to a minimum.Lean and over rich conditions can adversely effect those new parts long term.

Chuck I know this sounds out of the box normal procedures.I like to break in a new engine and set the rings with a trusted carb set-up first and then convert to the EFI.That way there is no risk to the new parts trying to settle in of a rich condition on the high end or the idle and then washing down those bearings/rings with gas.The same thing with a lean condition.

Sometimes it take more than one attempt to get the tune right.

Hey Chuck I didn't say it is not recommended to use a double roller timing chain on a hydro roller cam.FYI.

my engine uses the plastic timing chain cover.. so I am limited to using a single roller chain. I am having a hard time trying to figure out the compression ratio!
Bore 4.030
Stroke 5.7
compressed head gasket thickness ???
combustion chamber cc 64
dish piston -18cc
piston below deck .004

I have been playing around with the head gasket thickness until summit gets back to me with the proper thickness and it keeps coming up around 14:1??? that can't be right!

I used a level i had as a straight edge to measure how deep the piston was below the deck... maybe it is warped?
