Seriously... I never come on this forum and this is my first log in, in 2 months and I remember why... WHy the hell would I post everything? I'm not asking what is my problem half you clowns dont even do your own work... my question pertained to flapper valves and what are symtoms of stuck flapper valves not saying "help help you keyboard mechanics... I asked if it is possible for them to clog, fall apart etc.... sorry my previous experience with a flapper valve was on my toilet Jesus.. and yes I found a broken flapper lodged in the bottom of my y-pipe... and power washed a boat load of zebra muscles out..
FYI because Marine forums suck (Or just the supposid know it alls on this forum) I will only be posting my new engine build on the largest LS1 forum. (those who know, know)
For the non pompus know it alls that dont have a negative attitude and are stuck in the jurasic thought process period and are interested in what a boat should not be able to do. That are also curious as to what stuff I will break see the new engine build below so you can get a taste. The thread will start being posted in a month when the block comes back from the machine shop. As for the most common statement when people ask about performance mods for a 4.3L.. A SBC would be stupid becuase that is all you guys say on here is "Oh your wasting you money put a 350 in it...." People have no imagination and realistically have no clue what the heck they are talking about on here when it comes mods Marine or not an engine is an engine marine engines just need there power on a lower RPM with a broad flat torque curve.
A few of the fabulous goodies
4.3L block, Vortech Strim trim , water to air intercooler, Probe forged 4032 20.3cc dish pistons, eagle rods, existing "real 96+)vortech 4.3L cnc'd bowl/floor and exhaust port 2.02"/1.60" valves, custom cam powerband idle-5500 rpm and a demon blow through carb. max boost 12-15lbs.
Yes I plan on breaking things, no I dont care, I like spending money to learn about things.
