So I blew the head gasket in my truck the other week. I'm going to tear the whole thing down and rebuild as the block hasn't ever been resurfaced which I believe caused the issue, and I've had horrible blowby most likely from cylinders being out of round. I'm wondering what you guys might suggest for a daily driven weekend play truck in the 650-750hp range? I love the low end torque of this truck which is why I built my compounds to come on so early. I easily make 10psi by 1100rpm and 20psi by 1250, I can be at full tilt 85psi by low 2000s. I do tend to have low end part throttle smoke and higher egts than I would like. 850* cruising at 70mph with 15psi of boost. Part throttle take off is 1050-1100* easy... Any grade can bring my truck to 25psi and almost 1200*.
What do you suggest to improve upon my current setup?
Daily driven/weekend raced
Mild head porting
23* timing
quick spooling compounds
medium/low budget
Thanks for any help,
Kris
