Damn, you mean i cant make 10khp and 20krpm??!!1!1 :rofl: ct26 lag? They shouldn't be in the same sentence, or you have serious engine issues. Blow and head change for power handling isn't necessary.

DING DING DING DING DING!!!!!! Congratulations! What do we have for him johnny!? Those factors are what makes a 400 horsepower ls2 make almost half the hp/liter as a 1.3 liter 180 horsepower hayabusa engine. Both naturally aspirated, both piston engines, only difference is the ls2 doesn't...

Wiisass: i was accounting for everything, but intercooler pipes are not usually a problem at all, neither is reliability with turbos, semis use turbos and go millions of miles without big issues. Also never said you need a really nasty cam, i said lumpy, i ment mild. regardless any performance...

i dont see any sheets or attachments, not that it matters so dont bother anyway, your arguing to argue. i never said it couldnt be done, i actually said it could be. though even you yourself says the cam is a little "aggressive", turbo cams have minimal overlap therefore smoother. i don't know...

Those parts would be the same from 7m to ls1 and are not engine related. an IC coupler blowing up isnt a reliability issue with a 7m but any turbo car and good silicone couplers dont blow out very often. No i was saying Either engine in a street car will not be making full power at all times...

hmm. lets recap really quick...... OOHHH, i found it, i see exactly where i was stating i was, or had the knowledge of an internal combustion engine engineer. :3d_frown: what i DID say was hp/liter shows how efficiently an engine is making power. if a 1.3 liter hayabusa engine is making...

You say more parts equal more parts for breakage, thats against the lsx right? 2 less cylinders, no hydraulic lifters, pushrods, rockers, the only parts a 7m has that the lsx doesn't is one more cam and 8 more valves, but the probability of a valve or cam breaking isn't more then a hydraulic...

Yea those engines are also worth more then some peoples homes. Over head cam is LESS complex due to less moving parts. pushrods work, OHC works better. theres no "uber" complication about it. Pushrods are for Boats and Trucks, oh and Harley's too. That would work if we were just...

True but an 6.0l engine making 600 horsepower in a street car will see that same time at peak output as a 7m making 600 horsepower sharing the same driver. Depends greatly on driver, but i still don't see 5-600 horsepower being a problem for a properly built and maintained 7m/jz engine Though...

:biglaugh: Sig'd.... My Thoughts exactly, pushrods = 1960's.

yea seems theres alot of chevy vs toyota debates goin on recently... im sure theres more out there then i mentioned and or on this forum, and its besides the point, doesn't take "many" 7ms surviving at 550+hp to prove that they can in fact operate reliably at 500+ horsepower. majority of...

You, Duane, knate, mibrum (sp?) to name a few off the top of my head, then theres the guy with the orange 10 second mk3, im sure slow66 will be/has made a genuine 500 without adjustments, the HAS to be people out there that arent popular on the forums making 500+. Blackdevilsupra, mrsupra, just...

Suprabad: how can you say 7m and jz's are so unreliable? you keep saying it yet theres Many 7ms and Hundreds of jz's making 600+ horsepower without issues.

Agreed. :) Its up to the owner how they spend there money just showing pros and cons, i have nothing against the lsx other then its a GM/Chevy. :biglaugh: The clutch i figured average performance clutch, could be more i wont dispute that. Tuning for the 7m and custom fab labor for the...

I agree its a viable option. 5-6 grand.... My motor machine work (bored+honed, block and head smoothed for MHG, 3 angle VJ, full boil cleaning. Basic Full rebuild), ross pistons, Toyota gasket set, new Toyota factory oil pump, and MHG came out to about 2300 bucks. Im going to be putting rods...

Unless your talking about insane 1000+ horsepower, i cant see this being true. a properly Built 7m and 1jz will make and handle big power, its been proven. A 2j without a doubt will make and handle big (1000+) power reliably and its been proven too many times to count. And if you compare...

Awesome thanks jdub.

And can the plastic strut tower covers fit any better then that?

does it actually do any thing?

Would you trust the permatex? any ingredients i should look for? special atomic composition i should check out under and electron microscope?
