MitsuStyle - View Single Post - Full 6 bolt motor build, part suggestions?

2g Monson · 06-12-2010

Long story short, I blew my completely stock 7 bolt last weekend. Now I am in the process of gathering parts for the 6 bolt that is in process of being built. It will be running an EVO 3 big 16g, 1350cc injectors, E85, DSMlink, it has the supporting mods for that setup. Basically I am going to build a full motor because its getting taken apart for the rebuild. I am stuck on deciding a piston and rod combo, I know the wiseco/eagle is popular. I don't know if I should go that route or try something new. Is there something better? Then for the head, I want performance cams. I plan on upgrading the springs and retainers with the cams. Also possibly upgrading valves. Is any camshaft better then another? HKS has been around a while but also big $, FP? Crower?

For people who don't want to read the full write out, suggestions of pistons, rods, and camshafts... Any ideas are greatly appreciated
