I don't compute? What do you mean by another engine? What's up with the flat crank? Will that be on hold ? If you need an adapter for the Porsche style bell housing why can't you get the Kennedy Engineering system? You're putting me in a tail spin here.:laugh::laugh::laugh:

Hey Troy, what sequential tranny is that????

Congratulations on the Baby Boy. I had 5 of those. They are a blast!

Troy how's it going? Any updates? It's been a while and inquiring minds want to know?

Hey Troy it's so nice to see this starting to come together. I'm sure you can't wait to put it together and to hear what this will sound like. Man it's going to be awesome sounding I just know it!! Keep at it.

Soooooo what about that W8????

Hey Troy any news to report? BUMP

What is the status of the engine build?

Good Luck with your race! Looked into how to get the sound you want and saw this thread. exhaust note - HybridZ "To replicate the Ferrari exhaust note exactly will take 1) Single plane crank with shorty equal length headers and a short overall length exhaust system, (shorter length is...

Troy have you talked with the ATI folks? I think that the size of the damper has more to do with the weight of your reciprocating assembly, especially the weight of the crankshaft, and the stiffness of the assembly. The damper acts as a shock absorber but for a vibration in a circular pattern...

Can you post picture? Is it this one? If so....it's off the hook!

Granted the twin overhead cam and variable valve timing is awesome on that Coyote, but you still would have a higher rod ratio of 1.62:1 Coyote and 2.05 SBC 618. This may yield higher piston accelerations and piston sidewall forces. Don't know actually how much until you put it into a program...

This is going off topic but the gist of my post was that and SBC maintenance cost is 10% of an exotic like F and L cars...that's all. And, no matter how far down the results list I go, I still find that the F and L cars maintenance costs are still way over what an SBC is. I looked on Yahoo and...

:thumbsup: You got that right! Yeah F and L cars may sound exotic, good power, etc....but go get an oil change, spark plugs and clutch? :thumbsdown: A typical oil change on a Ferrari F430 will run you $500, and about $800 for a Ferrari F360 Modena, or $1100 for a Ferrari F355. Spark...

Troy Troy now you know that you're not going to be happy with a low revving engine. I know what you meant when you said that you rode in a friends SLC but it felt like it needed more rev. Coming from a 4 and 6 cylinder background I can understand how you felt that your friends car just wasn't...

Mick, I too apologize for directing the words, moron, stupid and lazy at you. Obviously you are neither of those but sometimes too many beers can do that . You're right I broke the forum rules. You know we're just all so passionate about these things, but cool heads need to prevail. Troy has...

WOW Mick.......really? Your arrogance is sickening. This is a forum you moron. Forums are used for the purpose of talking ("TELLING US WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO DO") with other like minded folks with the express purpose of educating and or obtaining knowledge. Otherwise it would be what they...

I too was wondering about that. It seems that the street Ferrari's idle fairly high as well, typically in the 900-1000 range? I use to have a Porsche 914-6 bumped to 2.7 liter carreta with dual webers and a hot early "S" cam and my tuner had to keep it idling at 1000 rpm (I know its not a flat...

Look at this post regarding engine sound. Apparently it is by some guy that either has and F40 or loves F40's don't know. But he says at the end that he made a flat plane 327 v8 for stock car racing and that his car was outlawed because it was so loud that the fans could not hear the...
