Finally my new oversize valveguides arrived, now I can reassemble my head, just have to wait for my new custom camshaft to arrive bleh .... Atleast I can make new valveseats and install the OD valveguides meanwhile...

What specifications are you running for Cams?

I'll be running a 292 in my turbo car, which probably isnt hot enough for your application.

[Robert]

Well that 292 is like changing from a original camshaft to another standard

Whats you're hp goal? Personal I would never put in a softer cam than 304. And what managmentsystem are you going to use?

I used a old motorsport cam, 328/328 100 loobseparation and 12mm valvelift. Going to test a new custom camshaft with 13mm lift, also going to develop a turbo camshaft with over 14.5mm lift, that Im going to test when my dyno arrive that I have ordered.

Bleh I hate snow....

Based on the way your tires spin in the videos you've posted, it doesn't seem to matter much whether there's snow on the ground or not ;-)

[Robert]

Hehe

Will soon have some updates.

all I can say is WOW!! Your car is incredible. Those videos look like youre ice skating on asphalt. Can you come to my house and turn my turbo project into what you have, PLEASE???

Thanks.

Well, sure ask you're wallet if hes with you, then call me

[Robert]

Oh and my custom camshaft is now done by the manufacture, can't wait to test it.

So a quick question, would a e21 LSD hold 300whp? Obviously the M5 diff will hold 2 times my power goal, but I don't have the ability to fab up your setup.

[Robert]

Still much more work to make that m5 fit on the car trust me...

Well 300whp that depends on you're driverstyle and what clutch you're going to use. Also many start launches from 0 with jumping tires will make that lsd short life. Do you have a newer than 1973 or older? On the older ones you and 350+hp will twist the shaftbearings splines and lose you're backwheel (not that fun tho) after -73 they are stronger (induction hardened)

But i'd say go for it, but keep in mind it will not last forever

Kpolito99 was running 300whp with an e21 LSD using a quaife unit inside, if you find one of his for sale ads and PM him I'll bet he can tell you more. It also depends on the tire's wear rating. With some 400a all seasons it would probably be ok but 100a DOT legal race tires, probably not, especially with launching. Rolling onto the power reduces stress quite a bit, hence why the Nissan GTR's tranny blows up after ~50 launch control launches yet can still put down super fast nurburgring times lap after lap.

[Robert]

Real dragrace tires are often better than lowprofile streettires, like MT ET Stees or ET Drag for example with a metallic core. When the tires ar jumping when launching you have about 5-10 times the moment from the engine in the driveline, and that will brake just anything.

New custom camshaft with 13.5mm valvelift arrived, looks awesome!
