Ahhh... come on guys lighten up ;) The story is that while tracking the 360 the engine blew up. How much is a new Ferrari engine??? So, for "fun" he decided to go this route. He doesn't appear to be cash flow challenged as a glimpse of his garage would suggest. List of cars at time of...

Just because I knew how much you would "love" this car!!! http://www.lsxtv.com/news/swap-insanity-ferrari-360-gt-powered-by-1000-horsepower-ls-engine/

Justen ran his power numbers on a stock long block. Save your money, skip the internal upgrages and instead invest in proper fuel and spark supply and tuning... let me again mention TUNING. Once you get your combination correct then you may consider rebuilding to increase strength. Skip...

All I can say is WOW... stunning. I love the current Veyron in all ways except the exterior design which while has grown on me is not intrinsically beautiful. Now, Polish designer Pawel Czyzewski has created what to me captures the beauty that the Veyron did not...

Also, you may want to purchase V band clamps to make disassembly easy.

Cryser, You have done pretty well with studying but there are a couple things to add. You have bought a California model SC400 which has the 3rd center cat (1st two cats bolt to exhaust manifolds before Y pipe). This Y does not have the quality merge that I recommend. Cutting off the cat...

Tuning on an LS is much cheaper. Heads, cams, pistons, etc much cheaper on an LS. Other than that a first gen 1uzfe with a decently designed turbo system is going to be cheaper than doing an engine swap and getting that running with factory smoothness and reliability. The turbo 1uz route is...

Looks like you want to ask David aka Lextreme about the available products listed. Not sure of his schedule but a reasonable thing to do is go ahead and post your plans or at least whatever you are willing to share. What is your goal with the project? Is this your first project or have you...

Hmmm... why is that? The 2uzfe is right in line with this forum. Too bad if true. Anyway, I would be VERY carefull running more boost as the connecting rods are not known to be reliable. Also without outstanding tuning the newer engines have minimal space between the piston tops and the...

It is relatively new, less than 5 years old, not at hand as it got tossed in a box but most likely made in China. Had an ancient one before that, was my dad's before that and he likely acquired it used... probably well over 50 years old... the leads finally fell apart.

Recently had a bit of "fun" with the 400. Thought I would post some details as it may help another member or two. Replaced the factory battery in 2005 with an Autozone. Not best or first choice but it was available. Since then it has "eaten" a battery every year or so. Voltage always checked...

2.3 is plenty. Consider the Cadillac CTS-V at 552hp and the Camaro ZL1 at 580hp both run the 1.9 liter TVS Eaton. The 638hp Corvette ZR1 and the 662hp Mustang GT500 run with 2.3 liter TVS Eatons. Speaking of the TVS... The problem IMO with lysolm compressors (whipple and others) is...

A show quality truck that runs like a real race car. Gotta love it! What tires are you running for the drags?

Well guys... I guess by your comments you haven't gotten any email response. Try posting in his thread he just made yesterday. Maybe he will respond there? Shows him making multiple highway runs against multiple known and unknown rides. Serious fun to watch. 800rwhp does make tracks...

This is really cool. For engine and transmission swaps, tire size changes, unusual combinations... this unit provides highly accurate speedo info and more. http://www.streetlegaltv.com/news/new-products/dakota-digital-gps-driven-cable-less-speedometer-speed-sensor/

Welcome JDMuscle. Going LSx means you will need to change your name to LSMuscle. I like the LSx options although I would also like to see the Ford Coyote crate engine. How much power did your 8psi setup make?

GTR vs Veyron vs GTR http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qgm2t6o6LZ8&feature=related Veyron vs Lamborghini Aventador + LFA + McLaren http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5_AKjDdqaU&feature=related That Aventador is just stunningly beautiful! So, who is going to turbocharge this V12...

David, gotta say... did NOT see THAT coming! How many can brag, "hey, check out my new ride, packing 130hp and gets 6mpg!"... Actually pretty cool... and if we are attacked with a EMP weapon it will be one of the few vehicles that actually run. BTW, where do you park?

Welcome #Rotor! Quite the project you have started there. You mention methanol injection but not the intercooler you look to have plumbed for. What are your power goals and vehicle use plans?

Welcome to Lextreme TJ! Your SC400SC project will teach you a great deal and should give you a strong sense of accomplishment provided you take your time, gather information and make good choices. I would suggest searching this forum for turbocharging and supercharging threads and read...
