Look at turbo pete's car and the amount of boost be has through stock heads and cams. Yes he has a turbo but you are still just forcing air into the engine.
Yea, that is true.... I think all he has is beefier springs. He also is still on his stock rear.... Axles, diff, gears....

Your tranny/rearend etc will go way before your heads/cams become a restriction, imo..I would beef up what you can in the rear and tranny. Are you going to track the car at all?
Yup, building the car to be half a street car half a track car... I actually just bought some racestars.... So it makes sense to focus on that next....

either the 3.40 0r the 3.33 can't recall. It is 1 or 2 steps down from the stock pulley that came with the V-3 kit which was the 3.80.

^THIS
Deff need this....... :beerdrink:

Ive actually had major bad luck at the track.... Between bad clutchs and belts slipping or coming off, Ive never had a soild run.... Besides not having the cash to do the cams this winter when the motor was apart, I kinda dont wanna get to ahead of myself. I have alot to learn when it comes to running the car down the strip..... Thats why Im thinkin maybe Ill just pick up a OD pulley and see what it makes with my listed mods.....

Was highly recommended to me to go with N/A cams with the Vortech system.Not the same dynamic as the twin screw type set up.

Vortech site says the v3 is good up to 22 pounds of boost, what kind of power are you wanting to make?

Haha, now you know that meens no Go-Pro mounted on the back window for those shifting skills...... :evillaugh:

And yes, Im going to have to learn how to get this thing out of the hole and not into a wall..... When my first POS spec clutch was actually somewhat working, I got the car to hook perfect... But I wasnt expecting it to pull that hard and that fucked up the shift to 2nd..... haha

I love that camera man, I'm sorry to hear about the clutch I've heard good things about spec, I was going to go for that when I needed a new clutch, I guess I'll reconsider.

Stay away from spec..... They used to have good products haha. All the new stuff is garbage. Maybe they are cuttin corners in these hard times....

I had chicken tenders at atco on sat.... Better then any fast food chain if you ask me... Ill have to compare with etowns haha

I have a Mcleod RST in the car now and its a work of art.... Perfect pedal feel and engagement..... Highly recomend them. Also, JJ at woodbine motorsports is the guy to talk to if your in the market.... Awsome pricing...

I still have to try the etown tenders! Next time, then Ill compare hahaha...
Im not sure what the car is putting down right now. My ass dyno is telling me more then before the 302... Id say from the 302 and added LT headers, maybe another 25whp 40wt at the most...... The added stroke picked up alot of noticable torque....
