Default ge upgrades?

i started my 92 sc300 build in november of last year but i have been in and out of the hospital . i am in good health now and i want to get back to my sc.

so my question is (first one atleast), is anyone on here running a built ge?. for now i just want to run a cam (bc 264) so i dont have to get new valves and such. also i want to swith intakes, possibly a stock gte manifold or a reasonable ebay one.


any questionns, help or comments are welcomed

the GTE manifolds wont bolt up to the ge's so you might just want to swap a 1jz-gte head/manifolds to the ge.

i am starting a new ge motor build over the winter to replace my 120k getting tired ge stock motor that has been running 22+ psi of boost since 07

i am talking with titan about the street series racing pistons giving a nice 9:0:1 compression with a heat treated dome and teflon coated skirts with coated acl racing bearing stock rods and a polished , balanced slightly knife edged crank , then new valves, titanium springs and retainers and ttc 268deg cams, the finally ordered a side intake custom built with q45 tb


i am going higher compression then gte because i am on aem and am not running anywhere near 30psi of boost .. this will make off boost driving better then stock , spool up will be quicker and will make more power at same or slightly less levels then i am at now giving me opp to go say 26 psi max on c16 or even just 110 for *****s and giggles


this will be my final build for this car hopefully to last me 5yrs +
