Parts Porn!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif)
What it takes to make a 3.6 into a 4.0. 105mm JE Pistons, 105mm LN Engineering Nickies, and R&R Pro Billet Rods. Not shown are the piston pins, the rings, and the pin retaining snap rings. ARP Head Stud Kit. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) Now all I need is the new oil pump, the case to come back from the machine shop, and the crank to come back from the repair facility. Then I can start assembling the bottom end. |

Are the studs going to have enough bite once you bore the spiggots out far enough for those cylinders? Do you put case savers in or something to reinforce the case where the head studs screw in?
This is pretty cool... 4.0 should yield a nice streetable 350-375 hp if done right I would think. |
