First startup was last night. Has some misfire issues but they seemed to sort themselves out as the motor warmed up. Took it for a shakedown test drive and all else seems sound.

...yes.

I think the turbo cars might have some issues..
Think the sc is making a come back

Tennpenn83

I hope so. I like my TVS. It seems like too many people are afraid to push it, that's why they get rid of them for turbos..

Sooooo bad ass.

its just like the perfect build... thinking this will be well above 400 wheel

This, or when they don't get the numbers they expected on the dyno.

By the way, nice work man.

im jelly of higher compression and displacement

Bluelightning

I second that motion

Tennpenn83

Thanks buddy.

This is how I've wanted it since day one. I now have everything on the motor that I've always wanted. Now... I have some more suspension and other things to worry about.

Thanks. To really enjoy the TVS you have to have octane and a smaller pulley. It doesn't really start to shine until you start pushing it, and revving it out.

There will be videos to come.

They seem to be a good combination already. I don't even have to barely tap the throttle and it just wants to jump into the revs.

I too wanna c how high compression works out for u. I was thinking of goin high compression when I build bottom end. Can't wait to c videos

Bluelightning

That's them camz. They really come alive after 4k.

Tennpenn83

If you have higher octane available, and if you have a good tune, there is nothing at all wrong with higher compression. Too many people are afraid to run it for fear of blowing up, but if you do it the right way, then it's absolutely better all around. Better hp, better mpg, better torque curve. The octane is helpful, but you really need to get the tune spot on. E85 just helps to get there easier.

Tennpenn83

Absolutely. But I didn't always have them camz until last year. Even the TVS with a small pulley and some octane on stock cams was impressive after about 4k.

Don't have any e around me. So running meth with 91 is my only option for now

InfraRedline

iTrader: (4)

Hell yeah man glad its running! Your build is so interesting to me because I always thought it would be cool to see what a high comp, higher displacement, and high revving motor with a TVS could do.

Tennpenn83

Thanks, Taylor. Again, I never claim to be a better driver than you, but if it is running good, I'd pay to see what you could run with it at the drag strip (street use I got).

Very nice build man, car should be beast

Tennpenn83

Thanks guys. I just gotta get her a little more dialed in on the tune and then break her in and hit the dyno.

mrbelvedere

iTrader: (3)

the misfires is probably from the injectors setting with with e them making them act up

hey i have that same exact tree in my front yard as well



car looks pretty nice and sounds like a beast.

more videos please

Tennpenn83

Probably. I emptied out the tank and put some fresh E85 in there but there might still have been some old E85 in the lines.

Thanks. More videos to come for sure.

Clicky to see how she does, nice build.
