I'm not mad at all... Takes alot more than a repost to make me mad.
It's just a little silly to see the same thread pop up over and over when there's tons of info in other threads just a simple search away.
Duane: You're right. I just got finished washing my car and doing some other...
A used engine well always be a used engine, definately. No getting around that.
Fortunately though, 1Js have a really good track record for being in good shape out of clips. Not quite as good from engine sets or just an engine by itself but still pretty good.
I would trust a clip motor again...
I am calm.
But I have a right to be a little annoyed.

Well, I know there are MK4s making 500s with stock fuel, so that would lead me to believe they're 550s. But if some tests of supposed 550s come out only 440s after cleaning and balancing, well that's enough for me not to play around with it.
7Ms are top-feed last I remember. But it's been over 2 years since I've even touched a 7M so don't quote me on that. :P
1J and 2J are side feed for sure though.
I wouldn't even play around with turning up the boost on a single turbo with stock injectors. You're playing with fire, IMO. Your boost could jump up higher than you think you set it on a cold night. Your boost controller might act up and spike your boost or the WG hose might pop off and you...
You'll probably be ok. Just take it seriously. Don't drive lazy because you think it won't be a challenge. You never know... There's alot of variables in a race.
GL. :)
I'm aware. Regardless, it is able to achieve great MPG numbers despite it's engine size.
Even with the new LS7 7L, it still gets 16 mpg in city according to Chevy's site... and 26 highway.
The 6L LS2 does 18mpg city and 28 highway.
