Guest Budz86 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Very nice list of parts you have there John, and car is looking great as per usual! Looking forward to the results, you'll be joining the 800 club I suspect! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to the results, you'll be joining the 800 club I suspect! I doubt we will be able to push 800bhp, between 700-750bhp is the aim. Bearing in mind we are still on a semi stock engine apart from ARP Headstuds, Mainstuds, Rodbolts and Clevite Bearings. Will be interesting to see what is capable with a squirt of ethanol .

Guest Budz86 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Ah, thought you had pistons/rods too. Head been touched? I have a feeling that intake and the fuel system will surprise you! What's the box capable of holding? Might be wise to play it safe with the engine, but you're running 600 ft lbs as it is! Just stick a 7k limiter on it and you'll be fine!

Guest Budz86 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Oh, and the ethanol will make the car feel amazing on boost! Will pin you to the seat! What mix you aiming for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just stick a 7k limiter on it and you'll be fine! Head is standard apart from SRD 264 Cams, current rev limit is 7250rpm. Box not to sure exactly but supra's in the US with the same box are doing 9 second 1/4 mile. Think they rate it at 700-750whp.

Should make abit more torque I'd imagine with the ethanol. We will leave it up to Lee with mapping, maybe he might do a 30% mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

and1c Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Looks lovely. Out of interest why are you going back to stock torque converter?? What is the TC you are removing? As I am about to go the opposite direction lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcbt Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Looks lovely. Out of interest why are you going back to stock torque converter?? What is the TC you are removing? As I am about to go the opposite direction lol It's a precision 3600 high stall which is great for the drag strip but becomes a wee bit tedious on the road and can catch you out on the odd occasion. With my hp and torque the stock converter is a bit more predictable and will work better with the flappy paddle set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
