- Vs Commodore Executive
Hey guys, first post, probably been asked before but ah well!
I've got a vs commodore running the ecotec, T5 box, hd clutch, tight lsd with 3.91's, pacemakers and and redback exhaust just a couple minor things, but pretty much is to just thrash the engine till it dies and get it rebuilt, car is in the mechanics at the moment getting the box ripped out and getting the bearings replaced and a fix up, is there anything i can ask him to do to the flywheel or anything in the box area just to toughen things up or give us a little more umph ?
main question is is it a stupid idea to thrash the thing till its dead once its back, and get it rebuilt with a couple internals done to help get me to 220-250kw at the wheels ? i know its an expensive thing to do! I'm really keen on getting a stage 2 comp cam in there, with all the springs and rods done aswell but i know just not that will get me upto the power im looking for, what else can i look at getting done on it to get it there without it being too stupidly loud (planning on putting stock exhaust back on if need be) because i am on my p's he he, and what sort of price i would be looking at roughly to get it done!
