looks good man

 

I highly doubt that a 3.9 would be in his best interest. He will have awesome torque which mean that the stock should be fine or a 3.3 could be better possibly. First and second gear would be super hard to hook up in with a 3.9 I think.

 

i am all about short gearing and tires that hook...


i might just keep playing with this setup once its running see how fast i can get the car to go NA...

 

You let the news out. Saw this setup in person, those pistons look stout!! It's going to be a sick setup I can't wait to see how well it does. I've always wanted to see a sick build up NA.

Whos cute blue car is that in the background???

Just don't blow anything up before I get there on Friday.

 

Ive been wondering what you were building. Thats some serious compression. I too dont think those cams will maximize power potential. Good luck and take lots of pics/videos.

 

yeah i am aware of the cams not maxing out the power. its a good starting point though and i am sure i will just change them out here soon. me doing all the work myself in my own car, it will only take a few hours, plus my car is pretty gutted out so we can have the motor out and apart in no time at all.


i am just going to see what she will do like this and then upgrade to some long tube headers and some crazy cams...

thanks guys...

 

looks like its going to be tuesday before the heads are done. kinda sucks but it will be running very very soon...

 

What kind of numbers you think this bad boy will be putting out once its tuned and ready?


by the way, i give you mad props for wanting to build a sick n/a car in a world full of boost happy people!!! not taking anything away from boost!!!

 

I just found this thread......I knew your plans, but I'm excited to see you going forward with it!

With your rpm goals, I see a mustang 8.8 rear conversion in the near future. There just aren't enough gear choices available if you are going to maximize this setup for the 'ol 1320!!!

Hers's a set of 6.14:1 gears for ya!!!! Talk about torque multiplication!!!


Then, you'll get the pizza cutters of the ground.

 

BAD ***!!!

 

Awesome. Keep us posted!

 

how's the valve clearance on that Jeremy?



gonna be siiiiick........

 

It goes "tick, tick, tick.".........JK, I sure hope not!

 

Its ^ picture that scares the $hit out of me.. I know I dont have a big enough sack to hit the 1320 with but if there was 1 person who would I know it would be you... Good Luck!

 

I didn't see any mention of the block being sleeved?

 

Will you be cryo-treating anything inside that engine? When you do add the nitrous, how will that be controlled, and will you use a progressive system? Sleeves?
I need to make a trip down to Orlando soon. Can any of this be replicated/played off? Thanks.

 

i will keep everyone updated with whatever i learn from this, hell i might start it up and start bangin valves.

i think it will be ok though. block is not sleeved and i have the jets for a 225 shot in there now but will try to at least go to the 350-400 shot range on nitrous alone


who cares if it blows up??!!! hahaha


no cryo treatment, i was trying to do it all on a little budget, i will be controlling the nitrous with 28 inch slicks...

 

I said that once
