[Ecotec] VS V6 Stroked

[Phillbert]

Hi guys im putting together a V6 motor for my VS Ute
It's a 5 speed manual with LSD

Motor will be:
Mace Stroker Kit
Mace Stage 2 Cam Kit w/ Double Row Timing Chain
Mace Roller Rockers
Mace 69mm Throttle Body
Mace CAI Kit
Mace Memcal
Extractors and Sports Exhaust

Can anyone recommend anything else to add?

Talked to MACE?

It will need a custom tune, a basic memcal won't do it with the stroker kit fitted.

I spoke to them about a few things but didn't know about the memcal, TY i will organize something before purchasing one.

Get a low compression stroker kit and add a turbo!!!!

Not interested in a Turbo or Supercharger.

Fair enough, have you considered doing work to the heads? Porting etc?

Yes i have, as far as i know the heads have pretty good flow but some porting would help. I figure about a grand should cover it.

That's the downside of strokers the heads don't fit big enough valves to keep up with air flow demands

So what would you suggest?

You would want some pretty trick porting and a good valve job and a custom inlet manifold etc to make the most of a stroker would be at least 2.5k just for the porting tuning gonna be 1500 odd some form of custom ground cam to try and get the most out of the small valves not an off the shelf grind some valvesprings to suit pushed it soon adds up to a **** ton of money lol boost wins hands down for doller to hp ratio easy enough to make triple the stock output at the wheels on a stock engine with a turbo setup
