    L28et Forged H beam rods

    in Parts Wanted

    Posted

    If they are junk, and fail, you will end up with an expensive boat anchor, that is why :). The only reason to run non stock rods is if you are running the engine at high RPMs for long periods of time (over 7k). The Nissan OEM ones are good most most all applications except extreme road race or turbo applications. The best rods are Carrillo, but for $300 each, they should be. This is what we run in in the L28 road race engine.

    Yes this will be a turbo motor and I don't think I will ever rev to 7k really. Thanks!

    Reckon at Pauter's price point you are probably just as well to go with Carillo, no?  

    I have read mixed reports on CX Racing's rods, but as they are made in China and low budget, there could potentially be some issues with the quality of the metal they use.  

    Turbo260Z, any particular reason you are looking at aftermarket H-beam rods?  The stock rods are forged, and with the right prep-work are good for all but the more extreme of builds - or so I have read on here countless times anyway.  Pretty much all of the info you will need for prepping rods can be found in Honsowetz's book on modifying these engines.

     

    I too have read about getting 500-600hp out of these rods but for $400 H beam rods why not? Especially since I'm building this motor pretty durable I didn't want the week points to be the rods.

    Looking for a Turbo l28 flywheel. Interested in something lightened and balanced but can be stock. Doesn't have to be crazy light. Can be used or new. Will need it shipped to area code 32812. Paypal ready. Let me know what you have!

    Thank you

    Need a Strong Clutch!

    in Drivetrain

    Posted

    Starting off saying I have looked up and down for a good clutch, and I have found several discussions on good clutches for setups around 250-300ft/lbs tq. I am hopefully going to be pushing for a max of 400whp and over 400ft/lbs tq on my l28ET build and I cannot find a clutch that specifacally states it's specs.

     

    Can someone please point me in the correct direction for a strong enough clutch for my set up. Preferably someone who has had experience with a specific clutch at that power level? I will be using a 240mm flywheel.

     

    Also what are your views on a lightened flywheel? What weight is best in your opinion?

    Seeing if anyone has a set of forged Pistons with rings, pins, etc. also if anyone has a turbo f54 block that is in good shape. Located in Orlando, Fl. Will pay for shipping for the Pistons. Send me a direct message if you have anything! Thanks!

    Upgraded brakes

    in Parts Wanted

    Posted

    I already had 4 runner brakes. Need something alittle bit better. Running drums in the rear. I would like something like front and rear willwood or equivalent. Will possibly be running quarters in the 10's so I would like some good stopping power!

    500-650cc injectors

    in Parts Wanted

    Posted

    Need something that I can use with a pallnet fuel rail and will pretty much fit directly into the intake as well as bolt on with the stock injector plastic pieces with the 2 screws. Will buy used if anyone has any or new if anyone knows a good injector. Would love for someone to tell me which injectors I should buy. Thanks!
