I've edited the title to better reflect the content of this thread.
Any 3B Performance Numbers, dyno charts, rebuild kit sourcing, engine part quality reviews, turbo selection, intercoolers and real world experience etc.
This would be a good place for it.
I've been thinking of getting a hold of a 5 bearing, sleeved 3B (not a 3bII) for a complete and thorough rebuild/build up with bulletproof parts for longevity and good power.
1.)Was wondering if it would be possible to do a rollerized camshaft/lifters in a 3B?
Higher rate valve springs with a narly cam grind?
Wonder if a machine shop could use roller lifters from another engine and fit them to a 3b?
I would be getting a short block and fitting a new high nickel head with all new valves, springs etc. new pistons(maybe bore it oversize), rebuilt inj pump and injectors/lines, the whole shebang.
I'd be happy with a completely stock rebuild, but if there are better options for building a bulletproof engine, im open to suggestions. I like the 3B for how easy it is to work on and tune.
cheers
