TMS, 2 MM MLS, head gasket to keep the stock comp ratio. After decking the block .5 MM (to get below the errosion on the old deck), and giving the head a polish. Head pics will be coming out on Wednesday.
I plan to run the 7M with the same 50trim CT26, so it will likely make better than what it has been making these past four years, 314HP and 333TQ, as I've had extensive head work done on the 7M, plus more ceramic thermal barrier coatings done to the combustion chambers and the valve faces. I plan to see less retard of spark during operation, while using the stock ECU. In addition, with less parasitic drag on the crank and reciprocating parts, the engine will be more effective in transferring the torque to the transmission. There I plan on running 18 weight transmission oil from NEO Synthetic and their LSD oil in the Diff (I'll monitor the temps in both). Should be interesting to see what happens at the track! :burnout:
On the cooling side the oil capacity is up to nine quarts (seven in the oil pan and two in the oil cooler), and the coolant will go through a three row, dimpled tubing, cross flow, two pass racing radiator (at stock pressure and temps), all aided by a thermostatically controlled, 16 inch electric fan.
I'll keep ya posted. Van
