... What's the exact setup? I hate to sound like the luddite (that I really am) but there's something to be said for the simplicity and reliability (well as...
John, The setup is a MPEFI with WB02, full timing and fuel table control with datalogging and all the bells and whistles. It started as an Edlebrock ProFlo...
Anyone good at sizing valve springs for a turbo car? I think my valves may be floating and I need to source a new set before the dyno is in the city 3 weeks...
I was thinking 135# untill I saw you are trying to turn 7K. Unless that is a wierd circle track grind with high duration and low lift, you are about 1000 RPM...
Can't help with the valvesprings but I have a question for you, Chris. Watching your videos, I notice a whining sound in the engine of your 300ZX. Just curious...
as far as valve springs go try to stay with the comp beehive springs they can recommend one for you. Then you need to figure the area of your intake valve...
Andrew, You will be getting into some difficult area here. Many people I have spoken with in the almost 30 years I have been turbocharging, have no idea as to...
N/A, the Performer RPM is supposed to be good for 6500, and I was hoping to be able to take it to 7000rpm with my 4.08 gears and 3 speed auto.. That's why I...
Thanks David, (I assume you're talking to me, unless Chris has a 300zx too..) It's a good ol fashion noisy gear drive.. Throws a lot of people off.. :) ...
Why go with the beehive springs? I was under the impression they were more for people who didn't want to machine their heads and what not for tighter...
That is a lot to digest.. I guess there is more to it than I figured on.. Running late to get back to work, I'll have to re-read this again tonight.. Thanks!...
To expand on this, if you build a setup with large port heads and a large turbo instead of one maxed out, you can eliminate some of these problems. I did some...
Yep it's you. Sorry it was late and I am typically confused. Makes an interesting noise, but does not detract from the turbo sound, either! Later, David ... ...
I had long ago chosen to use the beehive springs on my ford powered sunbeam (aka world's fastest sunbeam (wannabe)) because it lightens the reciprocating mass...
I contracted a guy named Raymond or Charlie Kirkland operating RCK Trucking out of Sylvester Georgia to move a motorcycle for me from Flordia to Montana. I...

Haven't been able to figure that out myself. The local Autozone and O'Reilly ave gotten a litle better, with at least a smattering of metric scews and bolts on...

Wish I had some pals in the Outlaws MC or similar when I got shafted by a guy in FL on a turbo kit a couple years back, I did get a court settlement but that's...
In march I paid $600 to move the bike. I'm sure it would be more now. They also had three bikes from another fellow in Alberta that were not delivered, same...
We discussed EGT a few weeks back. I did put a single EGT probe in my 1994 Mustang GT 5.0L. I mounted it about 4 inches down the exhaust header from cylinder...
I am going to first assume the 11:1 is only at high kpa. If it is at low kpa the first step is to get it up to 14-15 range or you will have high temps like...
Hey guys got a question. I just got through replacing the bearings in the T3 for my Buick Turbo V6. The shaft and center housing were perfect and the shaft...
Okay I think I got it. In the area indicated, there were some small burrs on the compressor housing. It looks like some damage from when I removed the...
What do you think of this? Was this a factory turbo Corvair? It's on a friend's farm and I can't remember if it is his car or not. The oilpan is missing as...
Well, no I didn't mic the housing. Oval housing is a possibility seeing how this turbo is a factory reman unit with .10 overbore housing. The bearings were...
