Re: Wont MORE Power
« on: Jan 24, 2005, 06:44:43 PM »
At the time my motor went I was deciding whether to go V8 or do a rebuild. The local engine rebuilder told me that he could get good h.p. out of the 3.0L for a reasonable price.....In the end I got hosed....
What's it got...
Forged Pistons
Forged Crank
Race Rods
Reground the cranks for more lift and duration
Ported, polished and shaved the heads 10 thou.
Ported and polished intake
Oversized valves
Bored the throttle body 5mm
K&N Cold air induction kit
Dynomax exhaust system
Just need headers now
Removed all emissions including EGR valve
It's ready to run NOS, but trying to find a turbo charger that I could run on it.
Like I said though, not worth it. Keep with a V8 swap or something else. If your 3.0L goes do yourself a favor and use it as a boat anchor.
Speaking of which anyone know of a turbo kit or something that I could use on a 3.0????

thanks
