which way to go about my engine

eddy21x · January 17th, 2012, 07:00 PM

well im gonna buy a shortblock soon

im wondering what you guys think i should do

order one from mmr or just build one?

i want to have fun n/a and spray a 125 shot

keep the 2v

so no go with a 4v stuff

If you have the tools and the 'know how' then just build one yourself. BUT mmr does have some amazing motors for a great price and they come with a warranty, I will be purchasing a short block from them in the future.

eddy21x · January 17th, 2012, 08:02 PM

i see deals on corral for shortblocks

but idk if im confident to buy them from over there

i may end up buying one from mmr question is

which one woulld fit my goals best

Shaun03GT · January 17th, 2012, 08:23 PM

Id say look into the 5.1L stroker motor they have. Then slap a big shot of nitrous on it.

Shaun03GT · January 17th, 2012, 08:23 PM

Go with high compression, 11:1 atleast

How'd they manage a 5.1? 3.552" stock bore with a 3.750" stroker crank comes to 4.87 liters/297"

Maybe it's the Boss block with the 4.75L stroker crank, slightly smaller than the 3.750" crank. That'd be a neat combination.

I thought they had a 5.1L motor? idk....

Kevin C · January 17th, 2012, 08:37 PM

Lol, I've been trying to figure out MMR for a while. For the most part their big bore 5.3 stroker is advertised as 324-325 cubes, when it's 322-323, and the stock bore/3.750" stroker is I believe advertised as a 5.0, even though it's slightly less than 4.9.

But I'd settle for that, at least I know it's actually 297"/4.87 liters.

eddy21x · January 17th, 2012, 10:53 PM

11:1

dont you think that would be a a little to much shaun?

Shaun03GT · January 18th, 2012, 12:15 AM

Hell nahhh. 11:1 compression would be ideal for a nitrous motor, and youd get everything you could out of it NA. I believe the guy that made like 395rwhp through his stroker motor (TFS heads, MHS cams etc....) was making 11.5:1 compression.

Idk what the max compression you can run for pump 93. Id say about 11.5-12:1 but not 100% sure. Compression alone will make good horsepower
