destruck Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I'm gathering the last few parts needed to complete a turbo setup, some of which was leftovers from previous turbo cars. My question is with a P79 head on a P30 block will their be any problems? I searched and could only find the compression should be somewhere between 6-7:1 and only 1 person said there might be clearance issues with no responses. I know the P30 block is solid and in good shape overall. I plan to "test" on this block and get all the little problems / bugs out of the car and over time grab a n42/f54 to rebuild for a 400~ to the wheels car. Only aiming for a low boost setup maybe 200-250 to the wheels max. Would there be any problems running this? I am aware getting a 2.8 block is optimal, but that will come in the future no doubt.

Xnke Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 There is a user here who did exactly what you describe. His megasquirt tune is actually in the archives here...along with a complete description of how he did it. He's from AZ and had a blue car with a dent in the door, but I can't actually remember his username off the top of my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
destruck Posted March 15, 2012 Author Share Posted March 15, 2012 I think your referring to X64v? I came across his posts (which I have saved that MS thread for info) stating he had a E88 head on the L24 block, and then went to a stock turbo bottom end with the p79. http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/34536-megasquirt-map-information-sharing-all-code-versions/page__view__findpost__p__584705 http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/34536-megasquirt-map-information-sharing-all-code-versions/page__view__findpost__p__651005 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
