i have an update on the progress of the rt 142 that most of you know i am building.

 

engine is still the 22re, but with the following shopping list:

 

full engine balance and blue print

i am now using 426 hemi inlet valves and cleveland exhaust valves (all stainless)

40 thou over forged acl pistons

10 thou crank grind running acl tri-metal race bearings

stage 4 crane cam

resized, shot peened, balanced conrods

block decked and head shaved to acheive 10.5:1 comp rat

titanium double valve springs (110lb seat tention) with moly chev retainers and seats

rollmaster (i think) timing set

head now has massive ports

custom 3.6l plenum chamber with BA XR-8 throtle body (thanks daniel)

4agze injectors

bosch motorsprts 044 fuel pump

1/2 inch fuel line

mallory cam angle sensor running multi sequential coils

all ran by my beautiful WOLF 3D VERSION 4 ( this f@$king computer is amazing!!!)

and i think thats about it

oh and the 2 ton exedy pressure plate and exedy 5 puck brass clutch plate

 

all this so far owes me a mere $6540.
