Its Alive.... 56K take a nap.....
Sunday, July 26, 2009 8:20 PM
Well, its been a year since its been down, but the car is alive again. Still in the process of breaking in the clutch, but so far so good. Cranked her over for the first time last Sunday. After priming the oil and making sure the pressure was good, Gave it some fuel and she fired first crank. Still in the process of doing the driveability tuning, but hope to strap it to the rollers here soon. I have been fighting the urge to go WOT and its killing me. So far I have gone 1/4 - 1/2 throttle and it builds boost really quick. Even cruising on the highway in 5th gear, you can feel it just wanting to go. The specs are in my profile and here are some pics.. I hope to get some numbers up soon... BTW, I am still cleaning it up, but some of the AN fittings/"T's" stil have not come in..

Looks great . I am kind of surprised you did not go with a mini battery and try and put your intake in the fender well.

That is one amazing setup! Ya, breaking in the clutch after putting a bunch of stuff in is the worst!!! It's like putting candy in front of a kid and saying. "im gonna leave. Now dont eat that delicious candy."

its good to see some ohv love out there. still full well knowing you could make more power with a dohc platform but thats cool. id love to see one of these engines get to 400whp.

btw what do you charge to tune?

Mmmmmm GT3076r. So are you planning on running in excess of 1 bar boost? I see you're successfully running the GMSC reflash, which should prove quite inspirational to those who choose to build this engine.

My fingers are crossed for at least 350whp @ 1bar boost, and potential for >400whp at higher boost.

u thinx both him and i are planning on running more than 2-bar boost......

Im expecting to see one of us breech the 400hp mark in the near future. by the way things have been going for me....im guessing he is going to beat me to it (a$$ hole)

But but,...wht about mee?

We 2200 guys gotta stick together...than stick it to the ecotecs...lol

I doubt I'll be near 400 with the stup im at....probably need a bigger turbo and a fuel system to go along with it.

Ryan was the one and only reason i went for the GMSC reflash based PCM software...I love it. It really is a piece of cake. So inspiration accomplished.

So... it's been 5 days. Isn't that the allotted time on the .org to expect dyno #'s? You asshats got up my ass about dyno #'s after day 3... lol (And just to be a prick I've waited 3+ years lolol)

Seriously though, has it been on the road yet? How's it feeling? I know you have to break the motor in a bit but a few psi of boost is allowed to help seat the rings...
