He has twin thermos with a fan shroud to suck the air through which should be sufficent enough to not overheat, unless the radiator's a bit stuffed or the thermostats not opening properly.Remember he is wot for only 10 sec.
no it will still run without the 550's just a little lean when you hit the loud peddle.I suggest re setting your timing as per the tsrm and double check its set right.If it is then make sure the maf is working as itll do exactly as you described otherwise( rev up then die.)When the car is...
I personally think the question asked should have been" what do i need to make a reliable 400hp". I would have to say instead of bolting on all the goodies people have been suggesting to spend a couple of dollars first on some handy ARP's and a metal h/gasket and getting a compression test...

The kit from driftmotion looks like a good way to get a few extra horses and save on the rebuild costs of the twins.My experience with the twins is a very smooth boost that makes the car feel a little wimpy but if you watch the speedo its quite deceptive, the ct26/57 would give it a little lag...
IJ cant you get a sandwich plate for the base of the oil filter that has threaded holes to be used for the turbo oil return line?And sorry forgot about the drilling for the dipstick hole, State of Origin was on.:biglaugh:
a na block is fine to use, not all 7mgte blocks had squirters anyway.As long as the block has had all the usual checks and its in good shape of course.
