in your opinion, to be at 350 whp what all is need to be replaced to have a daily driven ka-t.
i was thinking pistons, HG, honing, main and rod bearings. maybe shotpeen the rods, i dont have the money to buy new ones.

how much would all that cost you??? You maybe interested in just getting a crate motor from boost-designs. SInce you got the mani and dp already im sure they would take off the price of that from the engine since it comes with it.

i am not too smart but my opinion- rods will be fine. i wouldnt be comfortable unless i did all gaskets, timing chain, oil pump, water pump, radiator and therm. too. because thats a lot of hp

yea i was thinking the rods would hold it out too. But being on the safe side is never a bad idea. Id rather have a fully rebuilt engine on 5 pounds then a bad ass psi monster with minimal internal work.

Pistons, main and rod bearings, gaskets, and then whatever you feel like doing while you have the engine out. Stock HG will do 20+psi.

For the oil pump, rebuild it and shim it.

orestes, your sig cracks me up everytime i read it, beacuse its soo true.
but
yea i was estimating 1200 - 1400 for a good rebuild and replacing some stock parts like orestes stated. just making sure i wasnt off. thanks guys.

Phat KA-T also has a crate engine, but it's 75% more, is it rly worth it? Cause that doesn't include mani and dp, the BD engine comes with them.

no i dont think its worth it for the crate engine. there have got to be easy sources for good ka's no matter where you live pretty much. so i cant see paying that much. just dont give up on finding an actual 240 that comes with it.
