6.2, are those bosch's drilled to .042? Side note, I was driving through IN last night past a Bosch plant. Got me thinking about seeing if they would custom set up a set of injectors, or would it be better, cheaper, wiser to just have a machine shop do the customizing instead.

Remember the geico pig with the pin wheels screaming "WEEEEEEE!!!!"? That would be the perfect place. Don't forget the part about "...pure adrenaline..."

No problem, post up some pics of the engine :)

We forgive you, but it will cost you pics of what you got to date, sorry. LOL

20 years ago, I used to add a gallon of ATF to the tanks of the old Mack once a week. The injection shop recommended it, plus its cheap.

Would you be having the 599 block?

Cumminsfever, I almost dropped my phone when I saw your first illustration. I don't care, but that was hilarious! Ok, proceed.

I think we aught to just send him our left over rods. Help the guy pushing the envelope.

It's a special option. Pre bent saves time...

Sorry if i sound lame here, but what part are you drilling to .042?

Ok, my bad. Sorry Dylly, I was thinking that with a larger/more efficient turbo I could theoretically move more volume and mass. Here me out on this, so you know where I was/am coming from. Air compresses and I was figuring that with a given volume (6.5), the gmx could hypothetically push twice...

Dylly, the HX40WII is way more efficient than the gm junk, no secret there. But to say the cfm would be the same regardless of boost would be somewhat incorrect. What gmx's push at 15 psi, the ATT and HX40WII will do at a lower psi. So the cfm would stay the same, but the boost numbers won't be...

You know what would be really interesting and perhaps educational? Taking a pre cup from each phase (square, diamond, etc...) and cutting it in half, much like 6.2 did with the pistons. That would give us a cross section of each's opening and how much of a role they play in figuring CR, swirl...

I would think that coating the piston top, face of the head (inside the head gasket opening), the valves, and exhaust bowl and runner would be the areas that would likely be beneficial. Aside from the above mentioned pre cup. Just thinking out loud here, but wouldn't that keep the majority of...

Well, ya gotta respect a guy for tryin somethin new and or different, no matter how it works out.

Paul, its a sad dog who don't wag it's tail once in a while...

Be interesting to see if the cups crack more, less or not at all with the coating.

Nodak, that is some very detailed info!! Not that 0-60 times are of no use, but some real world stuff.

Yeah, sorry bout that. I assumed 'cross over tube' was referring to the cross over tube, not the silicone turbo boot. LOL.

What do you get for the extra $400 in the performance version?
