Here is a list of suppliers that people modifying the 4200 have used. Many of the parts for the 4200 interchange with the I4/I5 (2800/2900 & 3500/3700).

Rear sump oil pan oil pan

Bell housing flange adapters - convert the atlas bell pattern to SBC/BBC etc. adapter plate

High strength engine sleeves

Darton

Cam shafts - Bullet Racing - will supply cams including the cores. << NEW Feb 22/19

Connecting rods

K1

The owner of the '69 Camaro that appeared in Aug 2011 Car Craft had K1 connecting rods make up minimum order of 4340 rods. He bought one set for his current build, and the last time I asked there were 7 sets still at K1. The cost of the rods is reasonable compared to Crower.

Crower

Crower made the rods for several projects including: Black Opel


Pistons

Ross

J&E

Racetec << make a longer skirt piston more suited for street use.


Valve train

Jessel

Bates Engineering in So Cal has:

1mm OS intake/exhaust valves for the 2900/3700 head
high tension valve springs / retainers / keeper
1 mm OS valve seats - specifically made for boosted app's
investment cast roller followers
Adjustable cam sprockets


Billet main cap girdles Pohill racing innovations London Ontario Canada

Main cap locating dowels: emtechmotorsports

Cylinder head reinforcement rods: Route 66 engine builders

Head and Main cap studs: ARP (require machining)

Bates Engineering: has no machine head studs

Supplemental oil feed fittings - these bypass the internal oil passage restrictions and feed oil from the load side of the oil filter directly to the main/rod bearings: emtech motorsports


High capacity injectors, Modified GM engine EFI harnesses, PCM reflash to remove security and tunes: lime-swap 4200 injection EFI services

Another source for big Atlas Valves - they need to be custom ordered but available.

Products - supertechperformance.com

Stainless intakes and inconel exhaust.

Rod's:

Camshafts - it you make and provide 8620 billet blanks then comp, & crower can make custom cams. Not cheap this is a $1500+ hit.

Looks like fuel injectors are no longer available on limeswap. I'm looking to keep the stock fuel rail, are the stock injectors the same physical dimensions as LS injectors? I know the snakeeater 1000ccs are super cheap and everyone uses them on turbo LS builds
