Why do people keep resurrecting the 2YEAR OLD thread. :mad:

Wake up people. if 2low2go hasn't done it in 2 years he never will.

As for the SC Legend mentioned. TJ was selling the car because he never could get it to run right after a few years of effort.

As for labrats turbo, he's been kinda quiet of late don't you think?

see, if you wanted to build a 3.5, i would recommend the procharger, because you would have torque from the longer stroke engine, and the procharger would make up for losses on top, but with a 3.2 i would say use a supercoupe(whipple twin screw) to give you good power down low and allow the motor to maintain its high rev capability. a type I would be a toss up to me as which you would prefer(torque and launch, aka drivable, or high end kick)

Hey, whats up Tyler? I asked about the program for the machine shop....I cant lie...I forgot what they said. Anyhow, they said that they would make anything you could send them on disk. So if any one send me a sc you will have the mechanical set-up. I like this guys work!

Thx, K

what we need to know is will he make an intake manifold for us.......

the tie bar he might be able to do, but i dont know about an intake manifold. everything else with the sc can be made to work, but the intake manifold with the top mounting setup will need some work.

BTW, I am working on getting the spare engine on the way to start this project. I still have a lot of money sitting in my paypal account to buy the supercharger, so if I can find someone to take this setup to, it's still a "GO".

why cant you run a vortech then you dont have to worry about a manifold.. just a mounting point which would be easyer.. theres a vortech on uk ebay for 420 pounds at the moment

I think Tyler may have discovered one of the biggest problems, being that our intake runners are about 2 feet long from the throttle body to the heads. We would have a better ability to make more horsepower with shorter intake runners, therefore, an intake manifold will have to be made regardless.

While you're making it, why not make it so you can bolt a supercharger on top?
