I was actually going to leave the 6700ish rpm limiter in the terminator for the gen 6 if putting it in the burb. Used 7k as a quick number lol. Was thinking of whatever safe rpm I could get from a forged and balanced rotating assembly and a full roller valvetrain.
You telling me about the coil on plug thing for the gen6 in a different thread a long time ago is what made me look that direction. Already found the stuff from an L21 that I'd need. Just haven't bought it. That's the route I'm going with that engine no matter what it goes in though.
The more I thought about it while typing it in that post, the more I leaned towards big block for the trucks. My LS does awesome above 3k. Comes alive like crazy and pulls HARD to 6k
I had it in my mind that if I was in low enough gear, to be crawling at 3-4 k it would have MORE than enough power and torque. With a different cam mine could easily hit 500 ftlbs in that zone. 500 ftlbs is 500ftlb, no matter what is making it. Lol. And really all that's actually needed for wheeling.
But yeah, I'm still thinking BB will stay. I love the fact that with 35" tires and 3.73s I can do a burnout while rolling 5mph in 1rst, (not granny) with just a blip of the pedal. And my semi built LS can't hardly do one power braking lol.
I originally built the LS with turbo in mind. Hence the terminator setup.
Wanted it for the electronic boost control part. But the more videos I watch of turbo setups I realized turbo sounds piss me off. The stu stu stu, flutter, and whine make me angry for some reason. Not sure why
. But I figure having a 6000# machine with MASSIVE power at my control, and going into a rage is a bad idea lol. So I just kind of quit thinking of doing it.
Twin screws don't seem to bother me though lol.
