    Rebuilding a Race Engine

    Me too--but I cannot read that sort of stuff and let it pass. the fact of that matter is that the Chev cannott be used on the track successfully( ie long term or even for a length of time in the short term) without very serious modification(and exspense). FULL STOP. What irritates me more...

    Single or Twin Turbo?

    Not to sure what point you think I am missing - so I will state it even louder. Smaller turbos boost earlier and faster. Fact. The presumption is that thaey are configured for the purpose at hand. They can be designed to equal the equivelent end HP. So in an ideal world-why would you go single...

    Single or Twin Turbo?

    The problem you have is the twin gets away at the start of the straight and has just as much up top --so single will be further behind! The only place I can see it could be workrd around is on the drag strip where a specialized set up might be ablee to work around the problem.

    Single or Twin Turbo?

    That is fundamental advantage of going twin. Two turbos can equal the same amount of air to give equal end HP but with much quicker spool up that in my experience can virtually eliminate lag. While a big single may produce huge number that might be ok on a drag strip it does nothing for general...

    Single or Twin Turbo?

    Definately not trying to be different. Most interested in proven paths! Who did the work in the photo's above? Is that type of set up available in a kit or is it custom? What single Turbo is being used in photos--ie model . Is there anyone,anywhere doing single or twin kits that are GT40...

    porsche 928

    There is a big plus there--- you have the boats to use an anchor -that would be the most appropriate use for the 928 engine! It is a heavy lump with questionable reliability and power production. Any of the American V8's are far more suitable and much cheaper to get HP from.

    I agree about forum! Comment not unwelcome so please read nothing but the words in responses. You are right--the market will set the price-as will the experiences of those that get the type of upgrades done here. I am embaressed that all this has kept bumping the thread.

    G50/03 Transmission -reinforced FS

    I posted here the sale notice at the suggestion of a couple of people . I did not post to have a debate . I have tried to say it as politely as possible-- I have no idea of what expertise some of you have here. FWIW-- I am very familiar with virtually all the Porsche trans being used in...

    G50/03 Transmission -reinforced FS

    The case was repaired long ago-in fact before I acquired it. It was used for some time after that. I have seen many welded cases. The amount of work in his trans is significent to reinforce it and it shows . Those that think they could duplicate for anywhere near this price are dreaming - the...
