How far can we push the stock crank? Congrats again!

i hear 600 or so but not sure exactly

Hmm Trying to think if I could get by with just forged rods and pistons or if the forged crank is something I should do why its torn down...Want 600rwhp eventually

If youre in there already then you might as well replace everything at once.

You can get them from any nitrous dealer. Just order a nitrous jet to that size. IIRC...

Power isnt really an issue, its rpm, the oem crank lacks counterbalances so keeping it under 7000rpm it will easily handle as much power as the forged rods and pistons. 800-1000hp.

ebay 10$

I'll put it this way i would expect to bend a manley h-beam before the crank gives me any troubles. If you have heard of a 3v crank failure...

Top down plus turbo highway pulls equals ringing ears btw, shits loud!

 

[Bobby]

i love mine

i love mine

The first time I heard all the wonderful noises that come with a turbo on my car I had a blinding erection......
sometimes wish I had my wg dumped instead of thrown back into the exhaust. I might just undo the bolts and see how I like it sometime

 

[Greg Hazlett]

He took me for a ride in it today and from 40-70 that thing is nasty at 12 lbs of boost..wow....

 

[Bobby]

if you dump it to atmosphere get it retuned. it will make more power.
