Pretty cool man! Finally someone that did what i wanna do. What power did you make? How did it drive? Single rear or twin? Why the change?

Have you looked into the Jam Cam? BTR sells them now if you want spec's I have that still...

Never mind I see you wanna use turbo's

It didn’t make the power I wanted. It made 565 to the tire at 15 lbs with a cheap single T4 master power 70mm turbo . The build was pretty much out of curiosity. It drove awesome and was quick as **** on the street. Naturally, spooling was a tad laggy but was making good boost from a stop light before I got through the intersection. I changed because I hurt the #7 piston and swapped to an iron block forged motor. I didn’t wanna chance an issue with the oiling system and scavenge pump. There was a guy here that did a T6 rear mount that made like 850 RWHP. It’s possible to make good power but I opted to build my own front mount kit.

Should i replace lifters while im in there? When i was diagnosing my oil smoke from mufflers issue( turned out.to be a bad valve seal) i found one rocker tip that was gouged(worn) . I filed it down and ran the car the rest if the summer. Could this be caused by a bad lifter??

I would, because they're annoying to get to after the fact. don't know what your budget it, but i was doing it again, i'll go with link bar style lifters

don't know how big of turbos you plan to run (or how much boost), but you mentioning low CR being better earlier... that's good for if you're cramming a crap-ton of air down the engine's throat. if keeping it less than a dozen psi or so, you'll have a bit better drivability & response by maintaining low to mid-10s CR.

especially if you're keeping that big cam you've got now
