My Kenne Bell 434 LSX c5 zo6 build
Well as some of you may know I had some issues when i tore down my 346 so i decided to go to bigger cubes and figured oh what the hell we will just go to a 408 and lots of boost. After some long thinking and many hours on the phone with Jeff we have come to some solid conclusions and im proud to say that Jeff and TPE is going to be building me a great motor that is going to absolutly make a brutal street car. So we ditched the whole 408-416 ls3 idea and came to a conclusion of an lsx 434.

My goals are 1000+rwhp 1000+rwtq or more on straight pump gas at 13-14psi we shall see what the dyno says at the end of the tuning process

The run down:


TPE 434 LSX

Motor components:

LSx Bowtie Block
Callies 4340 Forged Crank w/2.1" rod journals
Callies "New Design" H-I beam 6.125" Forged rods
ARP2000 Rod bolts
ARP2000 Main Studs, w/ARP2000 side bolts
Clevite "Coated" main & rod bearings
Clevite "Coated" cam bearings
Wiseco Forged Pistons
Total Seal Rings (Stainless Top, Napier 2nd.1.5,1.5,3.0)
Double Roller tining set
Ported/Shimmed Melling 10296 oil pump

Machining and Parts Preperation:
Cylinders Bored/Torque Plate honed
Block decked and Squared (deck prepped to a surface RA of 38)
Cam Journals Line Bored
Mains Line Bored
Rotating assembly fully balanced
Crank Bladed and lightened
Chamfered Oil holes, and micropolished bearing surfaces
ALL parts and block hand deburred
Bronze bushed lifter bores
Completely assembled, blueprinted, photographed, documented, and serial numbered

Heads/Valvetrain:

Cometic .060 MLS gaskets
TFS 245 or New GM 6 bolts heads (70cc chambers)
2.1" Inconel stainless intake valve, 1.60" Incolel stainless exhaust
Dual "Extreme" springs good to .660" (150# seat, 410# open, Ti retainers)
Chromoly pushrods
Comp "Pro Magnum" roller rockers
Upgraded ARP2000 6 bolt head studs (one step below L19's
25x/25x .61x/.61x 113+3 (Hannibal Lector Cam )

Kenne Bell 2.8
fully polished with just about everything that can be done with the kenne bell kit thanks to Jeff at Total Performance Engineering out of Las Vegas.
8 - rib
Fully ported inlet manifold
10an chrome fuel rails on the way

Other mods include but are not limited to
Spec twin disk, hardened output shafts, mini tub, full cage, custom 12x18 z06 wheels, 345/30/18 bfg drag radials, Full wet nitrous kit, twin RSI fuel pump set up, 120lb injectors etc etc etc



That is the jist of it for now. Much more coming including complete pictures of the build as well as all install info all the way up to the final tune on the car. The car will be breathing through a set of full 2" headers into a complete 3" x pipe all the way out with 3" straight pipes out the back(no mufflers no cats). Some of you who have noticed my other posts may have seen im not the quiet type.

WOW!!!! I really do not think the NOS will be needed...LOL!!! But man I think that will be a 800/800 with out the NOS!! I seen a Z06 like that in Miami that had a 2.8 Kenny on it. I have no idea what motor it had but he made over 800/800. It was insane!! Like everyone else said good luck keeping tires on her with all that torque!!! Also I think you might have to get a bigger cowl hood to clear the blower. But mayabe not. Good luck and can't wait to see it done!!!!

Thanks man. Yea it should be fast enough for a street car. And when/if it gets boring up the boost to 17-19psi and add some meth to it and spray a 100 shot or so. Motor is built for 2000 hp so it should be interesting.

Thanks man will do. Only thing i see holding me back from above 1200rwhp or so at 16ish psi is the inlet but i dont think it will be as big of an issue with low psi. No mammoth kits for the vette's currently just custom cnc porting

Yea i dont plan on any nitrous. Hoping for 1000rwhp and 1000 rwtq with 14 or so psi straight pump gas, no nitrous, no meth.
Yea theres a 2-3 of them around that have made 800 or so. Jeff my buddy who own' s Total performance in Las Vegas develops and engineers all the r and r on these kits and with a 402 and a baby cam (236ish) he made 850/800 with 800rwtq at 1800rpm's
