Okay so what would 500k dollers buy you in TX? :D Oh I have nothing against San Antonio other than that it is *really* far away from home....

At the point they understand us and our gadgets we'll make the effort to understand about them about their handbag and shoes obsessions.... Sod it, looks good! :D Seriously, your house looks beautiful!

pmsl at the RoadRunner sounding Celica :D

I've just come back from Portugal (yesterday) after spending a week there with 7 other friends in a four bedroom villa with its own swimming pool and everything, it was gorgeous.... the driver who transported us from the airport to the villa reckoned that it was probably worth about 350,000...

That looks essentially like how I would have designed it from only reading through stuff on the internet with the exception that I would have only included one balancer bar and perhaps tapered it down towards the furthest cyclinders away from where the throttle boddies would be, it seems like...

Correct. Aside from a dubious ref call, was a good match.... :(

John, did I mention I hate you? And your cars? And your gorgeous garage? And the fact that it looks like your house is gorgeous? And and.... Damn jealousy :D Looks sweet John, I'll get pics of my current garage setup :D

And thats the key, being looked at/replaced after each run.... but are there any rods out there that can take that kind of power and yet don't have to be looked at so often?

Holy crap, he has a Superlite Coupe :D More more more! :D

what 8 set of rods could take 2500bhp? Thats 312.5bhp per rod :S

I'm starting to hear rumours that apparently the 1000bhp figure is quite conservative and could actually be like 1100-1200bhp.

keep up the good work dude! Looking forward to seeing the pics :)

98 is our Super Unleaded, some other fuel pumps are offering 99RON fuel and a couple of very rar 100RON but the cost is disgusting. Our normal unleaded is 95RON. Note: It is entirely possible I am getting octane/RON mixed up but I'm pretty certain that its RON.

No no, just saying with the current exchange rate from pounds to dollers its probably cheaper to buy and import an FFR from the US than it is the buy a DAX (DJ Sportscars) cobra replica kit over here in the UK.

Looks mint John, best of luck with your projects, I'm an avid follower :) And yes, dollers to the pound right now is looking pretty good, which is why I am considering a FFR Cobra kit all the way from over there because even with fraight chargers it will still work out cheaper than a local kit...

Dude, I think you are seriously going to need to learn how to chill and read what the guy is actually trying to tell you....

Why not just run two plenums designed for 4pots like the 200sx or the MR2, like this plenum: And then just fab some sort of balancer bar between them. If we know one of those flows well in theory two of those should flow equally well for a V8?

Oh yeah I know the one in the pics is a G50 but like I say, word is he is experimenting with the Ford GT transmission and if he is, I'll be he has a bellhousing as well.... Granted there are plenty of other options out there, but like you say, all second hand or nearly new and fetching pretty...

Thomas if you don't mind have you got any drawings of your design plans, I'm trying to figure out in my head how you are going to package it all together.

Word is he's got a hold of some Ford GT transmissions and I'm guessing then that he has a bellhousing to mate it to the 1UZ, that would be cool. We know that a STOCK Ford GT can take 1000bhp.... so at the end of the day a built G50 transmission to take that kinda power may be nearing the 7250...
