...will search for pics soon. Not much more info on the car so far, because still some issues with the gearbox (stall converter, shifting points etc.) and some minor things that needed to get done. Hope to update you all soon in the next weeks. :D

...we will go with the 265 duration cams...thinking about changing the TC for one with a lower stall too... 800+hp sounds about right for a daily driver :D

...regarding the cams: does anybody know what numbers the 207-T1 kelford cams can produce ?...given that we now are not limited by the manifold anymore....anyone ?

Guys, this was on a dynapack dyno, Shell 95 fuel...so no high octane, not even 98 octane. Torque is 760nm, with peak at 5500 rpm instead of the 4500 with the stock manifold. I think the dyno graph showed that we have min. 400rwhp from 4500 to 7500 rpm. Valve springs are from a 3SGTE, shim...

...we dynoed the LS yesterday, the car was 12 (!!!!) hours on the dyno and performed perfect...not even a drop of oil ! We managed to get 535rwhp & 760Nm at 1,5bar...but we got 470rwhp at only 1,0 bar (14psi)...so something is preventing us to get 600rwhp at 1,5 bar or so. It could be...

Ryan, this is what Zohair from BL said: "More torque will certainly stall a converter higher. Stall speeds are weird numbers… they don’t necessarily mean what they are. I think a 3200 stall would work well for an engine with as much torque as you are running." ...so we will have to find...

...more progress, lets hope we get this 1UZ to perform :D....fingers crossed.....

^...didn't post those pics...

^...any updates ?

...some progress on the new manifold:

...hmmm...that sucks to have to back to cam checking etc etc... Before my 1UZ went in, the engine builder checked, checked and double checked: Hope you get things sorted out soon, good luck !!!!

...guys at Boostlogic suggested that a 3200 stall would be better... The Lexus will be at the shop that will design and install a new intake manifold the whole coming week...we are aiming for 600rwhp all the way until redline, so no hassle with that power dropping after 4500rpm.... Will post...

...how much power is this 11.0sec rocket producing ? :)

...we make more then 600ft/lbs at 4500rpm, and at 5000rpm it is still very high... The transmission is a Boostlogic built automatic with 3800rpm stall converter...which now stalls at 5000rpm...hmmmm.....

...with the 3800 stall the engine seems to "stall" at 5000rpm.....meaning: under full boost, the needle sticks to 5000rpm instead of somewhere around 3800...anyone familiar with this problem ?......does the built just slips past 3800 ???...

custom made manifold

True, we hope to produce the before & after results in about 4 weeks :D...

Guys, we installed the BL automatic. Now it really shows the short powerband that decreases rapidly after 4500 rpm. We have a 3800 stall, so that restrictif manifold basically only allows a short power increase, and then it drops. Anybody experienced similar results with a high stall and the...

...nice numbers ! :)
