Hopefully someone out here knows what they are talking about and can help me out here.

Im going to put new internals into a 7 bolt 4g63, and since ill have the engine out and apart I want to put in everything that can be so I dont have to take the engine apart later. Im setting up for drag with high boost, so I dont know what specs on some things exactly. and id like things as reliable as possible.

heres what I have picked so far...

Engine
Wiseco Forged Pistons - What compression do I want?
Eagle Connecting Rods.
HKS Camshaft - 272 or 264? I dont want my ride to be horrible
Copper Head Gasket - but what thickness?
ARP head studs.
prothane motor mounts.
crank - do I need one?

Fuel
Walbro 255 LPH pump
Aeromotive Fuel Rail
Fuel Injectors - what size? if I got the biggest would that be bad?
Aeromotive Fuel Pressure Regulator

my biggest dont know about is the head, does it need work to be reliable? if so what can be done to it? I dont know much about the head as of this moment so what I would need to do would be appreciated.

and do I even need to do fuel right now? and what about ignition?

If theres some part im missing or just if a brand I have on here is a POS let me know, any help is appreciated on this.

thanks.
 
What are your goals other than drag and highboost?

I used to "drag and highboost" my dailydriven 11second pizza delivering Talon all the time. Do you own the car yet? You would get a LOT more answers if you put something like this in the general forum. Good luck!
 
Not to mention you'll be kicking yourself when your 7-bolt takes a walk... Save your money and put in a good 6-bolt that will be ok to 500whp.
 
id be plenty happy with 11 second 1/4 times, so all that might be a bit overkill, but I wouldnt complain if I went faster :D

I just want it to be a pretty mean dragster but also daily driven, after its pretty fast I will just stop engine modding and do show. Just with my car before was all show no go, and well....that sucks.

so in a nutshell a very fast reliable as possible daily driver? hope that was what you were looking for me to say.
 
Well it sounds as if you answered your own question then... Just because you may have bran new parts in the 7-bolt, doesn't mean that it won't walk. It's just a matter of time I guess...
