I am not positive and correct me if I'm wrong but from your long block pic, it looks as if you reused your timing belt. For 500hp and a new engine, I would get a brand new setup, which means all new timing pulleys, new tensioner, new water pump and a new belt.

Also what turbo are you planning on making your 500 with?

I got a brand new timing belt water pump and tensioner. Well for now I bolted back up the evo 3 cause cash is a lil tight after the build. But I will be running soon a 20g with a t3 hotside.

20g !!! NICE.............. A long time favorite of mine.

Is that the one we talked about? TD06H with the custom machined .70 T3 turbine housing? 360 heavy duty thrust bearing. That should make for one hell of a flowing 20g! And reliable too!

Get this thing a base tune and lets start playing with some E85 in that.

I'd like to see this thing boosting around the 27-28 lb. range.

This should make for a nice daily driver for sure.

I do hope you have a game plan for trying to get traction, because that's gonna be a big obstacle in itself................. trying to get the power to the ground.
