I found a radiatorshop that put 4 rows on my 280z stock radiator, i have 350 with twin turbos and havent had any issues of it running hot, its always at 160 F.

Those works really good a truck just beat me with one in my work truck lol It has 6 months with the turbo and i am running it with only 5 psi It made 270 whp and originally it gave 160 lol

That is a awsome combo, Thanks!!!!!

I want 350 to 400 whp but at 6000ft to do a n/a engine would be too expensive, that is why i am going to boost the car, I don't want a 5k 6k engine for a daily driver and weekend drag racing . I already saw it with my dad's camaro, It has all the goodies you can find lol Its a forged lt1 396 stroker with Afr heads and It needs nitrous to do 11s at this shitty dragstrip lol There is no traction in here My car has more traction at the street than in the dragstrip lol Ill probably do 12 secs lol but I would be more than happy with that e/t The fastest cars in here are doing 11s and 12s so I am going to be able to run with most of them and have fun

Do you think the lobe center of 110 of the xe274 would affect the spooling time of turbo?

It is a 350 I am pretty sure about it but I don't really want to change the cam to a boost one because in 2 weeks i have to take the car to the muffler shop to do the turbo exhaust and since I am in mexico it would take like 1 month for the new cam to arrive

Would it be a real difference in performance with a turbo with the xe274 vs the lt4? Thanks in advance!!!!!

I have 2 engines available for my 280z but I don´t know which one would be better for 8 pounds of boost. The one I am running right now is an old SBC with Vortec heads 1.6 roller rockers antipump up lifters Dish pistons :doh: lol XE 274 cam Fluid damper The second choice is a stock LT1 with only lt4 hot cam The sbc needs to be refresh and would like to put a high volume oil pump and probably change the dish pistons. the lt1 doesnt need anything at all What would you guys do?? Help!

I didn't know that my mirrors were vitaloni That's cool

At 6000 ft is possible , that lt1 had a cam only, my sbc with vortec heads. A 274 cam 235 @.50 gave exactly the same horses in the same dyno 213 thats why im going to use a turbo lol i know several fbodys with those whp here

I saw 2 camaros that raced 3 times in a row. One had a sts twin turbo it had 500 whp Second one had a lt1 with 210 whp The 3 times the camaro with 210 whp won, then i saw the dyno sheets of the sts camaro, and the power band with the remote turbos was real small , it had 500 whp only for few seconds. I don't know if it had to do with the tune or the size of the turbos but i haven't seen a remote turbo system that works as well as a regular one. I'm about to boost my sbc and theres plenty of room for everything, why would you want a remote turbo?

:lol: Look what just arrived, I am missing the carburator hat, but already have a msd boost control. and all the connections, flanges,and pipes. I won´t need the 6000 rpms anymore lol Hope to have an update about this in few days

Its a great town and you are right the girls are pretty cute the only thing is that the dragstrip sucks , they dont use glue, the cars are faster in the street lol Regarding my issue with the HEI i changed the coil and now its revving up to 6300 again and also the engine sounds and revs more smooth If it starts acting like before I'm going to put a coil outside.

I know an old guy that is good fiberglass, and gave him some pics of the competition scoop, cause im cheap and did not wanted to buy the real deal lol, he was going to do it pretty close but when i saw the hood that way, i liked it and left it like that, he charged me like 60 dollars lol

I bought the air dam and the bumper from Oscar, UPS messed up but he did send it on time, and i like the way it looks i had to sand the bumper because it was still fresh and had marks from the packing stuff, but he is good

I have another question, i have been searching but can't fine anything. I have a b&m torque converter and they say its a 2000 rpm stall, with my old heads and old cam i was able to rev the car to 1700 rpm and launch from there, but with the vortec heads and new cam , it onlt revs to 700 rpm and starts moving. Oh and i haven't touch the tranny lol

It does miracles when you do that right? Lol thats the only pain in the a$$ with edelbrock carbs. The ones i never cleaned before were the passages of the idle screws and those were giving me the problems

Im going to connect it in the afternoon, I saw your built thread its awsome, also saw the grenades on your youtube, those cars inspire me to boost my car lol

nop, what would it be better to the intake? or the carb?

yesterday i bought a timing light and fixed it a little bit lol i had the initial at 25 degrees and total of 35 degrees, so i put it at 18 initial and also changed the springs of the HEI and its giving 38 total, and its running alot better, also remove the damn spectre air filter and it ran so much better, now i need to do an spacer for that hat, just for few months while i get all the parts to turbo de car The issue with the carb was that, there was debris inside of the little holes where you screw the idle screws. also i live in guadalajara that is 4900 feet so i tried bigger carbs but i lose a lot of torque, and for a daily driver the edelbrock is really economical hahah

its a regular chinese Hei, im going to change it on monday, a friend of mine has several carbs at work, I'm going to try some of them and i think there are new HEIs, gonna try another one. Already changed the hoses and sprayed carb cleaner everywhere lol, also i just sprayied the holes of the air screws and its work great. Let see. How is going to work in few hours lol Hope it works, im about to boost the **** out of it lol so i can get the ticket i want hehe my dad just bought that turbo for a Ram charger, but if he doesnt start to build the pipes soon, ill have to borrow it fo lr a while haha

Hi guys, i have been trying to get a good et ticket but sometimes my engine runs good and the next day it doesnt but i don't know whats going on. There are days that the engine revs up to 6300 with no effort and it pulls really hard until there, the next run it only revs to 5000 rpm and its like it hits a wall and wont pull anymore. Also the days it revs to 6300 i can tune the carb with the idle screws and works perfectly, the days it doesnt rev its really rich and the idle screws doesnt work. I always have the engine around 650 rpm at idle, i have been trying to find a vacuun leak the days the idle screws doesnt work, but cant find anything Here are the specs Sbc with stock vortec heads , comp cams xe274 Edelbrock 600 cfm carb antipump up lifters And a b&m torque converter of 1800 rpm Any ideas of whats wrong? I just can't find whats wrong with it.

Its almost done after 3 years only missing an ebay gt45 for the sbc lol

After 2 years of daily driving it like this it finally went to a real bodyshop to have it restore, took this pic in the afternoon
