My little 347 is at the machine shop..started idling at 18lbs oil pressure..with this stock crank,bone stock 243 heads with ls6 intake and throttle body has been living a rough life for over 3 years.2 1/2 years over 900rwhp.lets hope this new setup can take a beating..

Going to be hard to beat the old runs on her.

Sounds like it did good! Strengthen up the rest of it and see if it will last longer.

whats the plan for it?

69ls6

Basically the same engine with ported heads,good crank,higher compression,e85 and water 2air cooler
It didn't hurt any of the piston or rods..

b16gsr

Awesome. Should make some killer power.

Very interested to see the new results. I take it you will not be attending LS fest?

ajrothm

So did it bend the crank and eat bearings or what? It was making some power, that's for sure

69ls6

Working on it everyday to have it ready for lsx fest

69ls6

No bent crank..bearings was starting to come apart from oring on suction tube being ripped..crank looks great

PEETYZ

Awesome.

assuming stock idle of 550rpm, 18psi hot is normal w/ 5w30.
I doubt your bearings were coming apart due to this oil pressure...probably normal wear considering the use.
900whp on stock engine...gotta love these motors!

347's are the best - looking forward to seeing the results!

Following!

Thanks,Matt

69ls6

No..stock crank,heads and intake..forged pistons and rods

Turbo-Geist

Looking forward to the results. What was your best pass on this combo?

What pistons and rings were you using?

69ls6

9.15@158 track was crap tho..

Wisco piston with compstar rods

Good luck with the new setup! BTW, that wasn't "the littile motor that could"...... it was the little motor that DID! Always admired what ya were able to accomplish with that setup.
