noticed this when editing video. worse than missing the odo roll over. 1019 runs.. And video of the above stuff

Done some actual back to backs on this today. First the vvt travel is slightly aggressive for the cams in this engine. 20-25deg probably ideal rather than the 30. but have got the start and end points dialed in for pretty good compromise. i can index the outer pulley to change it. Its running about 10deg more advance than normal when vvt on and 20deg more retard when off. Running the vvt setup first, then switching back to the fixed/adjusble cam gears set at my normal settings Blue: vvt on (advanced) Red: off The pulley takes a little time to travel between advanced and retarded, so the switch point is 7600 rather than the 8100 it looks like it should be. which maybe a little disadvantage in the lower gears when zings through the revs fast. bit it actually helps fill in the dips. poor mans vvti black is vvt switching off at 7600rpm orange is best compromise fixed cam timing

Further up the runner more cooling. closer to valve will run nicer. but wont be much in it in your case. I'd run the ones in the manifold.

radiator size is plenty big for a na 4age

The 3576 would be better option in the 35 frame. How much power are you realistically aiming for?

Both, but mostly superchargers. you get way more power boost for boost out of a turbo setup. depends on the turbo you use re gate type. a lot of aftermarket stuff doesn't come with internal gate these days. easier just to go external

Yeah if you do the math on the bara torque numbers is making 173hp at 3250rpm. which is pretty much peak power for the l67. so can see how the barra would spool turbo way sooner So yeah look at the power rather than engine size if comparing Just looking at the plusar page maybe something like this would be better suited. dont quote me on it haven't looked into it too hard.. https://www.pulsarturbo.com.au/collections/gtx-gen2/products/pulsar-gtx3071r-gen2-turbocharger either way it'l go heaps better and probably more reliable with turbo over supercharger. since more stress on engine to make same power with supercharger

Thats a lot of turbo for an L67. a gtx30** would probably be better suited. remember the NA barra makes decent bit more power than an NA L67. Which directly effects how much power it will make turbo and how well will spool the turbo worst bara numbers i found: Power: 182 kW (244 hp) @ 5250 rpm Torque: 380 N⋅m (280 lb⋅ft) @ 3250 rpm moo numbers 177 (hp) Horsepower at 4800 Rpm 320 Nm @ 3200 Rpm | 236.02 lb.-ft. @ 3200 Rpm In a perfect world should make double the power on 1 bar boost ,can usually get close on a good setup. turbo not supercharger, they are horrible bara - 488hp moo - 354hp

Long time no update. nothing really has happened to this thing other than being strapped the the dyno with various junk engines. Current one being a long rod 4age, 7a block, 4a crank custom rods, smallport pistons. modified bigport head with 193b cams. so yeh just a polished turd. has all the blot-on's off my good engine and the main reason i actually took the good engine out and put junker in, is this abomination Its something Ive wanted to do since forever ago. actually made some parts way back. but ran into issues and all got to hard basket. about 500 years past and attempted it again with a little help from a machinist friend. Intake cam pulley looks a little weird? Thats because its a vvt pulley off a 20v. They are just a simple on off 2 position deal. with 30 deg travel After some teething issues, managed to do some initial testing today The pink line is what it makes with my normal fixed timing. which is quite aggressively advanced. basically as much as can go, to gain all the midrange with minimal loss at peak. the downside is power drops fast after peak power Red line is with vvt on from start of run, which a touch more advance that what it normally runs. Then switches off a 7300 retarding intake cam 30 degrees little red line is a "stockish" bigport engine. for reference Great success? or did i just build a v8 that idles are 6000rpm

Pretty close, but bad day for peaches (red) noodle (blue) and cones pretty much the same. maybe the cones by a touch

The starlet alone is almost about to crack 1000 runs

Peaches are back to defend their title But all my money is on the road cones

Cheers for offer re tv. will pass though. the crappy little crt fits with my shed tetris at the moment. Not sure about the smoke thing, since engine is consuming something silly like 7000L per min, likely wont see a lot unless have lots of smoke.

Not the best example, as length was slightly off. but can see on the skinny blue runners. how they fall over up top, with only minimal gains down low. Pretty much everything ive tired diameter wise, to make a gain in the bottom end, will take a big hit in the top end. Waay more forgiving going oversized. example being something completely silly like the noodles. they hardly loose anything down low.

bends dont really have any effect, probably a tiny bit in it if your runner size is borderline already. your average long radius bends are fine. those cast aluminum elbows are a bad day though. somewhere on my youtube i tested them About 1 million people have asked me to test dimpled ones. haven't had any sent my way yet though.

I just figured it out, they spin the wrong way for the southern hemisphere. but yeh, been taking to @Roman about it. I might do some butchery, to see if can get them to work any better. I think making the slots bigger would be the first thing to try. cutting a hole in the end would kinda defeat the design

Looks like it's hanging on really well!

Judging by his fuel map and having vvt. It should at least hang onto peak power for quite a few more rpm.

Ive got you covered with that 10k rpm engine prep also. buy some 10 dollar drug dealer scales. weigh engine parts. butcher said parts with preferred item. so everything within .02gram. then proceed to completely ignore anything that spins, because that cost money to get balanced

Oosh that fresh chinesium. Ive proven they are good to 10k rpm for at least 5 seconds. so your good to go

looks like it could go either way. I'll have to resurrect the peaches

Noodles on point, 132kw and all the top end

That would be amazing Yeah will run them all at same length. so all the 75mm ones will have the ali extendo bits on them, which as a small taper inside the long blues aka "2. big straight blue lagoon" are actually made for silvertop throttles, so they a bit skinny compared to everything else. i just butchered the flange off the end.

Yeah depends on the sizes. Port matching in most cases is pointless and in some will make it worse. Good example of this is my current junker engine. Has bigport head with itb setup designed for smallport just bolted straight on. Most people would lose there shit at the massive missmatch. But it actually fixes some of the sins of the oversized ports. If tried to make the manifold match the port size with a nice slow transition, it would be worse
