Oxbow Thanks this. -
Ive had this engine working for a few years now since unpeec'd runs decent nothing to brag about, last week i tore the front apart to replace cam bearings and camshaft and updated lifter retainers. I have the time now to go ahead and inframe it was using some oil and had blowby. IPD makes the same both piston in steel for large and small pin bores.

Good luck

It will work great with the 8789's and 14.6 steel topps. Your gonna want an 80/1:45. Set timing to 21@1000rpms start screw @1450 and 31-32° @1000rpms. May require a degree or 2 more to clean up any excessive smoke. Will run clean and make 700or so hp with rack maxxed mybe more if you put in a 4p-0998 18° cam in your fuel pump if you have a 7e-5888 dual scroll pump.

my point here is it’s hard to give help if you don’t know what you have. I’m not ridiculing anyone. I’m only stating a fact of to know what advice to give I gotta know what your trying to work with.
the reason I say it will never live is it really needs meter timed and the right pump cam mentioned above. Very few have a timing meter, fewer than that understand how to use it.
I have never seen the IPD 2 piece steel tops live past 150 thousand or so. Not bad parts not a bad install but a driver will push them too hard. They feel there indestructible and they say it’s still pulling I’ve almost got the electronic motor beat why should I back out of it. Just facts.
I have seen the 8789 lay down good numbers at competitions. Then seen the 8785 go back in before the putting it back on the street. Power cost money how much you wanna spend? Going in half ####ed well your trucks gonna run half ####ed. One last time for those in the back timing is critical. It’s the most important part of that whole combination. Course what do I know, I’m just a beat down ol cow hand with a 1 bay shop way out in woods. My ol B runs everyday though.Oxbow, black_dog106, AModelCat and 2 others Thank this. -
So what happens to the ipd crowns?? All ive used is the cat 125-8869 crowns...they work great as long as timing is right. You definitely need to meter time it.

Is there a nozzle that EXACTLY matches that two piece piston for the b/c? I’m saying to run pump pin timed stock
