Even better. I look forward to how your logs will compare to the others'.

I take it you have an intake and full exhaust already, as well as cams?

 

my guess is 60's might not be big enough for the heavy hitters

 

Yeah already been down that road, forged bottom end w/neutrals, cams and built top end.

I do have a supplemental fuel pump but its not installed as my factory service manuals didn't list which stupid line was supply and return from the tank and I wasn't dropping the tank to find out. I've since grabbed a spare fuel module and found out but if I see a fuel pressure drop I have a spare inline Aeromotive fuel pump ready to be installed.

 

Ah okay. You'll show some good potential with the TVS with a well built engine then. 79's would probably be too much for an LSJ with mostly stock everything, correct? Or would it matter at all?

 

After installing the 79s, I wish I would have done it earlier. The pintle style 60s that everybody uses are garbage compared to a disc style injector like the 79s. They have massive overhead and better short pulse fuel control than the 60s imo.

 

I'll be running 60s off the bat and going accordingly. Me and Witt both are on the fully built side of the house

 

Hmm. At what stage did you install your 79's? Before or after your internal build?

Oh that's right. I forgot you were built as well. Hmm.

LSJ is also built to or am I talking out of my ass? If I remember he is running a 2.5.

 

so there is a stock side to the equation as well?

 

BTW, and this applies to anyone who is test piloting these...If god forbid something would break I have a massive collection of spare LSJ parts in my basement. They are actually mostly djt81185's from his second engine rebuild after he spun a con rod bearing but I'm sure he would let me make a little withdrawl from the bank of Dan's spare parts.

Other than a block, head, and crank, I have everything needed to build another engine if one of us has a booboo. Let me know asap if something happens and we can arrange a little shipping manuever.

 

oooooohhhhhhhhhhhh have fun with that one!

don't pull a dan

 

I built the bottom end in April of last year. I installed the 79s in January this year when I applied to be a test pilot for Harrop.

 

i'm sure there are enough parts floating around pittsburgh to fix any engine related problem

 

thanks Witt. And lsjwannabe isn't built he's going to be the test pilot for those with stock internals. So he would be the one for questions when it comes to stock engines

 

Ah okay. Thanks for the info. If I ever get a **** load of money and get built, I will look to your logs.

Ah okay, I will be looking to LSJ then. Thanks guys for your contribution tot he community. Trust me, there are people who appreciate it.

 

someone needs to get off their butt and put their pump in. also needs to install something else to help with "pressure"

 

Were gonna try seeing how it appears there is only 3 of us(we've been searching for months now LOL) I hope we can answer all question.

 

people like me


all i have for this app are 60's...hopefully they shoudl suffice :P

 

Can't wait to help install and drive this thing

 

Bring on the fun!!!

 

its gonna be fun

 

what are everyones power expectations for their tvs build?

 

I know Witt is going to stop @ 400hp, since he is using stock rods still.

 

ima push it as hard as possible for dyno numbers hopeing for 450+ but for daily driving like high 300s maybe more whatever feels good

 

... I'm probably going to investing in a TVS this fall.... although I included rods in my build... I had no intentions of going too far over 300.... problem is, I just kept buying parts....

 

now guys we are talking fwhp right?
