I have never rebuilt a motor in my life. I would like to build my 05 3valve for some high boost applications. Suggestions on what pistons, connecting rods, crank etc... to use would be great. Also some tips and tricks from people who have built motors.

I am just researching now but hopefully can get started some time next year.

Thanks

 

i have a 2v and built my motor when Mahle pistons/rods...get a forged crank, and always expect little problems to come up...and keep it a a decent compression i have 9:5:1

 

I would say eagle rods, mahle pistons, forged crank, good heads, comp cams, and full exhaust should make you happy. Id say go for around 9-9.5/1 compression.

 

Thank you for your info.

Any specs for camshafts, valves etc...that you would recommend?

 

call comp cams and have them custom grind a set just for your needs. it doesnt cost that much more than off the shelf cams
