well guys, i got my 26 inch slicks arriving at the shop wednesday, so i will have them on and head to the track, i really wish i had some headers laying around here. i need to throw some on soon!! anyone have a rev up lower laying around in town??

 

Hey Jeremy,

My brother has his rev-up lower laying around since he changed it out for the 287 lower, he said you could have it.

 

hey J do u have the stock plenum on? what about pullies?

 

Trade you my revup lower for your 287 lower... PM me if you're interested.

 

you should try to JWT C-2 grind camshafts, theyre race grind cams. super aggressive..just a thought. Keep us posted on the track times, i wana see the first 11 second N/A Z

 

how do you know they are "super aggressive"? Going merely by the manufacturer specs really tells you very little about the performance of the cam. There is alot more to a cam than just lift and duration

 

well the lift and duration on them is pretty aggresive, itd make a difference. and just from word of mouth. Iunno, anybody tried em out? and please get a good video with sound runnin the 1/4...i wana hear it screamin at 8000+ rpm's

 

I have a set in a FWD VQ.. Haven't fired the engine off yet, but, it will have a GT42R hanging off of it and a sleeved/built bottom end.

 

don't know where my post went. But I was wondering what makes your engine make the 15:1 compression?

Is it the custom pistons or is it the heads?

Nothing on the market I have seen can allow for such high compression?

 

It's the pistons..

 

sometimes you have to create your own market...




combo of the pistons, flat valves and jus a small .010 taken off the heads and block...

 

think after bolt ons, more aggressive cams, and some extensive tuning you'll push over 350 rwhp? and why has no one tried Brian Crowers 4.1 liter stroker kit with higher compression pistons?

 

Trust me.. I know all about that.. We are the ones who started the whole VQ swapped Sentra deal.. and destroked QR25 engines that rev to almost 10K.

What type of fuel can you run the engine on? Is 100 octane unleaded optional?

 

The lift is, but the duration isn't. There are better n/a options out there IMO.

 

Because it is pretty expensive and still relatively unproven. Like previously mentioned no one knows if or how much power this motor will acheive in high compression NA form.

 

putting on the rev up lower plenum tomorrow with some more dynos. i will let you know what happens, hopefully tap that 300 mark with some tuning, i need some headers soon though, i really dont have a lot of time for myself any more...

 

it will be interesting to see what that new collector does, given how flat the curve was up top to begin with

 

ok, off to the shop, i will be puttin on that lower collector, i thnk i might have some long tub headers coming here soon as well.



headers headers headers, it going to cost way way too much money to figure out what type, shape, collector???

adam, please pm me the specs on the tomeis that we talked about.

i want to retorque the heads here soon, so i will just swap out the cams at the same time.

 

Good luck with everything Jeremy. Keep us updated.

Did you get to the track last night? I thought someone said you were going

 

No I think that's tonight! If it doesnt rain
