    has to be one of the hottest VNs around mate, looks fantastic. How hard was it to install the T/throttle onto that engine just custom manifolds? Definately very very cool.

    Thanks to all those who praised the car .

    And for those who called me stupid for spending so much on a V6 , I don't care what you say .

    I've always liked the VN V6s ever since they were released in 88 .
    I wanted to do something different, Also the car idles very well and is great on petrol too,
    This is my daily driver now , I do around 600ks a week .

    Its very easy to put 150 kws on nitrous with a wet setup.

    Its the fuel side of things that tricky ,
    I'm running a surge tank with a 910 pump and adjustable fuel reg .
    Fuel pressure is 58 psi .

    It squirts Nitrous and Fuel at the same time into the manifold .

    This motor was built to withstand a 200+ Hp shot of nitrous , Hence the price .
    Alot of thought and money went into the bottom end.

    The crank is 3.51 stroke with an overbore of 30thou .
    Its a crankshaft rebuilders( Melb) Offsett Gring crank .

    I didn't want to use the Bradley Crank because I have seen them fail under boost and another fail in a speedway car at high revs.
    And they don't like to be reved over 7000rpm .

    I never stated flywheel Kws , I don't know them and its hard to tell .

    Don't go calling me names just because I did something different .
    The power is acurate , Not bodgied up with correction factors on the dyno like most people do .

    I have dyno sheets that range from 178 -200 rwkws done on different dynos , But I only state the lowest reading of 178 to be far .

    I've built 5 worked V6 engines before this motor power ranging from 120 kws to 145 kws , The other engines were nowhere near as tuff as this one now .

    If you doubt the power give Steve at S&S Racing a Call and ask him yourself . 03 9310 7842 .
