Ahhh... for an LS1.

 

T,

I went with the torquer v2 and I love it.

 

Nice.. See my main concern with the MS4 is with me doing back to back runs at the track hitting high rpms every time, might cause some valve float. but then again I upgraded my springs and rocker arms.. Thought?

 

My personal opinion is that the cam will be too much. It isn't like you are going to really need the extra 10whp that cam will give you. Given your cars use I would go for safety and longevity for the valve train since you can still easily make gobbs of power.

I am actually quite excited to see your reaction to the car compared to when you ran the VQ. I am guessing it is going to be night and day difference.

 

See this is what I was thinking too.. A friend that has an LS1 for drifting told me to look at the ASA cam.. HERE. Which is a really good cam.. I am talking now to Texas Speed Shop so they are working with me to get the right cam. I'll keep you guys posted..

Now as far as the reaction part, I can't wait. I know the VQ and LS are worlds apart so i feel I will have to do a couple of test days before I can get used to that instant torque... But I will have vids for sure..

 

well ryans car made me **** my pants on partial throttle... me skoozy on the stains

 

Make sure you ask for a dyno curve from a motor similar to yours. With only .525 lift you could have stuck with stock or z06 yellow behive springs. The duration on that cam is pretty long if you are getting a rough idle. Are you ever going to street this car? or is it track only.

Are you going to raise the rev limiter? You need to look at the torque and power curve over your estimated rpm range.

 

Agreed. That cam seems too mild in my opinion.

 

Dude, i can not get enough of this thread. The tube work on the nose is phenomenal and if you havnt decided about painting the ducting yet, dont...polish that sucker! I wouldnt rock that bumper either...if i were u id sell it to me

This car is going to be so epic, i cant wait man. Let me know when your ready for the embossing, i say we do the whole car.

 

more updates?

 

Oh I talked to TSP about my motor setup so they know what I am working with. Also I do plan on raising the rev limiter... As far as street/track driving, This car will be mainly for the track and might see some street but most likely not much..

I totally agree with you on this cam being to mild that is what I told TSP so we are working on some things..

Thanks bro, and yeah I am going to polish that ducting for sure.. Going to look sick with the color I am going to paint the bay..

Also I will def hit you up for the roof design. I am however getting the rest of the car wrapped here.. We will talk soon though.. when it comes time to do it I will hit you up.


Hopefully I should have update next week when the car comes home.. Then I will take detail pics of all the work that has been done.. Big Up Date

 

Why don't you just get a patrick g cam?

 

Why would I do that? When I am going though TSP

 

pk,thanx

and what wheels will be installed?

 

embossing the roof?! did i miss this discussion? what's the plan, e? this build keeps getting better and better.

i'm willing to bet some dope DPEs.

 

Oh haha, well Nevaland has come up with a sick layout to do wrap jobs. This will give you an idea as to what the roof will look like:





Now mine will be Matte White, and going to run a different design but you get the idea..


And yup you are right DPE wheels it is... Would not have it any other way.. I posted a pic a couple pages back but here it is again.. Now these are 19s and will be for marketing at shows/meets/ and driving around town.. I will also be getting this same design in 18s for drifting...

 

I wish I could afford those exact wheels for my car...

 

holy crap!
