Wanting to build a street motor for a 1996 350 Chevy LT1 motor. What I
would like to know is what are your thoughts on making the wrist pins
full floating. I have always thought that by doing so that you reduce friction or drag on a rotating assembly. I know that alot of high performance factory motors use full floating set ups. Anyway has anyone
ever tested a motor before and after a full floating set up has been
installed and what results has it shown. I also would like to know your thoughts on which is more reliable full floating or single floating. THANKS ed
