    Do I need 2 fuel pumps?

    One in tank pump is plenty! If you are going to build a stroker that needs a bigger fuel system later.. A walbro 255gph intank pump is good upto about 550hp..

    Another 355 stroker thread

    Simple answer is yes.. So go see frank at 308 performance in malaga and he will get you on the road easily for 10k (not the best personal skills, but builds a good engine). ls1 injectors will be the go. Dual plane hi-rise from torque power over the starr forsure, en i can say this because ive...

    vortech t-trim on ve ss

    I found this information interesting so I called capa. Turns out what you have written here is very inaccurate. The si-trim is an upgrade for the sq but not as good as a t-trim. As for the original question, I have a gm street racer cam in my ve making 329rwkw, and tony from capa told me i would...

    [LS1] ls1 cam!

    if your going for small duration, go for a tighter lobe sep to give u higher cylinder pressure.. trust me, ull end up wanting a bigger cam otherwise

    Hey this thread got moved so got confused en didnt reply last time. Sorry man. Sounds like this thing is going to be pretty sweet. Looking forward to seeing some photos.

    304 Cam upgrade

    Your ready to spend thousands to lose drive quality and increase fuel consumption just to get a lump note at idle? You cant be serious! Why dont you find out what cam is going to suit the set up you have then enjoy the note that it will make. spend 3.5 and get it done properly. If you go for a...

    Pacemaker vs Xforce vs Difillipo

    My car came with exhaust, its got pacemaker 1 3/4 headers, 200cpsi metal cats and xforce twin 3". If i were to go out and buy them myself, the hurricane 4 into 1s are the best value for money, with ballistic 100cpsi metal cats from sureflo exhaust and a twin 3" system from xforce or manta. This...

    [LS1] ls1 cam!

    Very true!! The higher the duration, the higher peak power will be, when you start going huge, you need to spin your engine to dangerous rpms to make peak power which means you need really efficient heads and manifold. Better off with a small duration cam with a tight LSA for a street car! the...

    [LS1] ls1 cam!

    This cam on a 110lsa is a very good cam! Very quick on the street. IMO feels quicker on the road then a 230ish on 112

    [LS1] ls1 cam!

    Definetly get rid of the gts intake and get an otr. Id personally go for a 228/232 112 .600ish as a minimum. Good cam and still driveable. You will need new clutch if your still running a stocky. Did you get any gain putting the lsx manifold on? Im surprised you went for that option before a...

    LS2 tuning

    " So you have to start with a 7L block or go buy a warhawk, or lsx block as i mentioned before. An ls7 block has a 4.125", whereas a 6L has a 4.000" bore. So that crank will be no good for the LS2 block. You can bore the LS2 block to 4.060 without sleeving it, but you would want it sonically...

    Planning on charging the SS crewman

    To start with mate, if you have a vy, then you already have an ls6 manifold. The ls1 manifold was only on the the vt's. Id say before you start looking at blower, you would be better off getting the rest of your exhaust soughted like you have said with 4 into 1s and 100cpsi cats. What cat back...

    LS2 tuning

    Hey mate, just curious, how did you get 440 out of an LS2 block. The most ive heard of people getting out of these blocks is 427 and thats with a lot of work with 408s being a lot more common. I wouldve thought ud need an lsx or warhawk block?

    304 304 stroked and supercharged

    Im guessing the 10psi kit your talking about is the v2 QS not the T-trim. A 355 needs a fair amount of air and the SQ does start to run out of puff.. More boost will just give you higher intake temps and it starts to get a little dangerous, especially if your driving round adelaide in the middle...

    304 Intake Manifolds

    Forget bout it. If you have a 355 and want good mid range.. to hi-rise dual plane. If you wanted peaky power I would say single plane. Alternatively get your low rise, and when you realise its shithouse up top, chuck a 2inch spacer on it. With a 355, its going to be torquey down low anyway. What...

    304 Intake Manifolds

    Id go the TP dual plane high-rise. It gives you a broad power range. The set up is 990 with it drilled for injection, 850ish for efi hardware 1000cfm throttlebody with all the linkages need to hook it up, 250ish for 14" extreme flow drop base filter. so round 2100 and you dont have to modify...

    5 litre turbo kit?

    Should take a look at the whipple kits from yella terra mate. They will give you awesome down low torque with excellent top end aswell. I think it will suit the 5L better for the street without a doubt. Plus you dont have to go cutting holes in your bay for cooler piping or anything.. coz if you...

    304 blue top injectors

    Yeh thats what i got. plenty more power then stock at the moment. Just working out if im going to need new injectors or not. So im certainly up for an upgrade.

    disregard fellers. I pretty much found out they are good for 45hp each. if any1 disagrees with this.. feel free to fill us in

    COME Racing Twin TB Manifold

    COME manifold is more of a top end manifold. If you want better low down and mid range torque, id go for the torque power dual plain hi-rise. All depends on what you want. The trick shift is a cool manifold. dont see heaps of em round and alot cheaper then a group a manifold with similar looks...

    what v8 motor and box combo is the best for vs wagon

    A head and cam package in an LS1 will make over 400rwhp. Got a few mates with it done.. more so without the ported heads.. but its crazy power for the road.. not undriveable though at all.. However much nicer to drive forced induction car.. If money isnt an issue.. why doesnt he go out and buy a...

    65kms is f**k all. I was thinking due to you living in Broome that ya kms might be higher. I couldnt tell you about traction troubles as ive neva really been in a worked vr/vs ute. I guess it comes down to you perfecting your own driving, and knowing exactly how much u can give it before its...

    Questions regarding Supercharging VR 5.0L

    m90 and m112s are eaton blowers, and yes they certainly do run out of puff.. the 112 is ofcourse alot better then the 90, but biggest gains are in lower end torque and do struggle in the top end compared to a centrifugal. You may be thinking of a whipple. They r good but cha ching!!
  36. 96SEN8R

    Questions regarding Supercharging VR 5.0L

    Have u been in a 5L with centrifugal blower before? As far as going nowhere until ur going 100kms an hr isnt right at all. You just feel power later in the rev range whereas a top mounted blower will just u the kick down low and you wont feel a lot later. Which it does sound like ur going for. A...

    Questions regarding Supercharging VR 5.0L

    M90 runs out of puff quickly. Good down low torque though. There is no way an m90 would good for a 5.7! If u want a good value for money kit. Look at the raptor kits. dont get the down low torque but top end will make up for it quickly. Plus the kit comes with injectors and chip. Im fairly sure...

    304 C.O.M.E. 2009 alloy heads on near stock 215i?

    Well they r 3500 to your door, but you cant use your normal rocket gear, so u wanna make sure ya credit card isnt limited to 3.5:P

    304 C.O.M.E. 2009 alloy heads on near stock 215i?

    I agree with you, the heads are awesome, but dont you think the 4200ish (including the new rockers) plus installation would be a bit to expensive for the power again hes going to get? for half that price he can get the average performance guy with a die grinder and still have a decent gain.
