ancullen Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 Nah, just hook two 4A-GE's together with common camshafts to make a horizontally opposed eight. Connect the crankshafts via a hugely complicated mega-flywheel setup and you should get 1201.78hp at the front wheels minimum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Jamie Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 wow, at the front wheels that would be good for something like a 35 second quarter mile :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ancullen Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 Yes, my calculations would lead me to concur with that. Of course, a 40-second quarter mile could be achieved if NOS was used and the weather was right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teddy Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 Torque? what are you people on?!! ITS ALL ABOUT STREET CRED ! LIGHTS ! STICKERS ! FULL SIC ADDON DRIFTO PARTS BRO ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ancullen Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 Phew, thanks for waking me up from that delusion Teddy. I was beginning to think that torque and horsepower actually did something. EVERYONE knows that street cred is what makes cars truly fast. Add stickers, t-bar wings, body kit, and neons and you will go fast. Avoid the engine bay, as engine mods may slow your car down. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratty Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 And don't forget the doof doof :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ancullen Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 Oops, thanks Ratty! Actually I've got a mate with a LC Torana coupe with a pretty sweet 202. The car is quite quick, but as it's his road car (as well as circuit racer), he decided to install a stereo system. Strathfield had a sale which included a $500 package including speakers, headunit, amp, and you guessed it, subwoofer. So now he has a 12-inch sub taking up his boot, and there have been many comments about how much quicker it makes his car go around Hidden Valley! Of course, he deserves every comment, as this is someone who has often sung the praises of the weight-saving abilities of rust!!! :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratty Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 love it :P music is nice to hear but i would rather put $500 to make my motor sound nice hehe :P cam and exaust and listen to music at home with my doof doof yamaha set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ancullen Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 His dad had already put in cam, extractors & exhaust, overbored the motor, and whacked on triple SU's from when he used to race it. Personally I would have spent the $500 on tidying the bodywork up and fixing some of the rust. Instead they've now just put in some new carpets to cover it up. Unfortunately the exterior still needs a lot of work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
20V_KE35 Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 Side Draft Webers (DCOE40 or similar) and a good torquey cam like a 25/65 with heaps of lift or a 70/30 Should give you about 110-120+ Horsepower at your engine :P nice....got twin dcoe 40 but the cam...emmmm this setup is with engine? 3k,4k or 5k? estimate torque???

demuire Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 Bigger engine, bigger torque. You want more torque, get bigger engine. Simple :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
