Too much for a GE?

[Valvoline]

I'm going to do a na-t. However I don't know how well the GE will hold up to 400rwhp.

I plan na-t with a 60-1, rc55's, lex afm and SAFC.

The engine is healthy, fresh rebuilt and ARP headstuds.

However, will the engine hold up well? What headwork should I do? Go with a 3.0mm or 2.0mm MHG to lower comp?

Any advice is helpful.

It will hold just fine, so long as you have a proper tune. It'll also be a monster at low RPM, which is one of the benefits of a higher compression turbo car. Tuning is key. Screw up the tune, and you'll melt it down in no time.

I wouldn't go 60-1. I think it's too big for normal 7m, I'd like to see how 57 one acts...
Or if you like "nothing...nothing...nothing...slammed in the seat...redline" then try it . It may be better on a N/A though.

With a good tune I think you'll be fine....

+1 If you plan on use the CT26 I wouldn't go w/ the 60-1. The 57trim is supposed to be the happy medium between having decent potential and realibilty. If you go on the DM website or vendor forum they say the same thing. I don't think you'd make 400 very easily w/ a 57trim though...

If you use a 60-1 T4 though I sure you could make 400whp easily as long as you had the proper tune.

It will be fine as long as the tune is safe and done correctly! One mess up and pop goes a piston!
