Hello guys I recently signed with the Navy so I've been looking into building my H22a in my 4th gen. I'll probably have about six grand to start with what I want to do is build somewhere around 800bhp turbo build. So I'm looking for some suggestions and advice.

Boring the block,
Sleeving the block, (recommend) DARTON FTW!
honing,
and decking the block, and the price depends on your machine shop. I paid 474.98 for my labor cost but ask around i got mine for a good deal.
and then you got to get some pistons and rods.

I an looking to spend anywhere from 6000-8000$ just on the engine itself before I turbo it. Any good setups you suggest?

if you dont know what it takes to make 800hp, you might want to contract someone.

whatdaheo23 · 10-10-2011, 12:07 AM

takes alot to get 800.... very true but if you got the money and time got for it..bore and stroke....

look here:
Building for 550whp...here we go!!
this is for around 550whp goodluck on hitting around 800 alot of custom made parts dual fuel pumps ect...every thing i recommend for building block is in this tread

It will never hold traction, you'd be better off buying something RWD or AWD with the money you are looking to dump.
