Head is completely done with Kelford 272's, thought about going to Tomei 280's. Just a thought though. I haven't had any problems with Supertech in any of my builds, so for now yes I'll stay with them.
I have a girdle on the way. Same one SP used on their car. Pistons, I'll stay with what I have. Rods, most likely Carrillo. On sleeves, still debating, as I was talking to a friend of mine about doing a half fill(Supra world stuff lol...im sure many others as well). I'll talk to him some more to get a better in depth look at my goals.
No power number goals right now. I know they made 1248 on the twin 62 setup, I have the upgraded twin 67mm version. So we shall see.

Cooling I have a 34 row oil cooler, pathfinder mod, radiator, custom direct port meth setup. Really not sure what else I can add to make sure it gets all the cooling it needs. If someone has any ideas, I'm all ears.

really wouldnt do a half fill on a street car, would make me very nervous about heat especially with the issues sleeved blocks have had with cooling. usually its all out drag cars that do it that arnt going to see any street time, although not sure about supras, imagine it would have been them also. i know for a fact a half fill in most engines on the street will end up toast quick from over heating.

If I was to do a half fill. It would not be on a sleeved block. My builder has already filled a VQ and hasnt had any problems with daily driving, then again, I dont think they were making over 1Krwhp, but I could be wrong. Like I said I'll talk it over with him some more to get a better feel on everything. Good points though. thanks!!

We shall see man, my kit came on in the 4000-4500 range with the GT37. I dont mind the power coming in at 5k. Be like a supra in a way haha. So something I know the feeling of already. Your twin 62s, when do they come in? How'd you get the 3.8L as well. I'm not ready for stroking it just yet, but always possible later on.

Hahaha, you say that, but this setup went 9's...Topend runs will be nice to see as well. Gotta love Texas with the T2Kxx, mile and TI events. Again you say wait, why? Is that what you say when your getting beat...Please wait mister haha, I can't keep up. ![Wink](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)
I just hope I can do this kit justice.

there is one of his dynos and those are twin 6262. 6262 will spool considerably faster than the gt37 and slightly faster than gt35

it was a little better than that once cam timing got adjusted. on my new motor the powerband is quite better, but is everything besides the turbos is different.
i'd prolly swap to 5558s if I had the chance. my ***** start to shrivel even past 6000 rpms at only 20psi with another 2500 rpms and 20psi to go.

I wish man. Think I am going to try this 3.5L first and see what she does.
I looked at that kit, but for the deal I got, I couldn't pass it up. I'll be fine with the twin pte67 setup
...I mean, I am going for power. Good gas savings under 5krpms lol, until boost, then it bye bye gas.
I see... Well I talked to Don, and he said I can do the girdle, half fill, Carrillo rods, and upgrade my wrist pins. That should withstand the power I want to try an make. I'll get another block, to start getting things ready for a stroker or something of that nature, when and if this one should let go. I pray to God I'll get some use from this before that happens. Here goes to some fun. Kit, girdle, axles will be here next week. Engine will get torn out and sent to Don over the Christmas break, so goal is to have it complete before T2K13.
Maybe I should get my cut, that way I dont have to worry about mine getting scared lol...I'm hoping I can break the 1248 number they set with the kit. So we shall see. Going to definitely need some good wheels and tires for this to hook.

Holy Turbos.. I think I saw you this morning as I was leaving! Did you get a buzz cut? What's weird about that, is that just last night I came across this thread for the first time and read all 10 pages because I was curious what you've done to your car since that last time I saw you when I bought the SPL toe arms from you. When I saw the guy who I thought was you, I was like "No fu<king way, there's no way that he pops up the very next day after reading his build thread, after not having seen his username for over a year"
