You'll probably want water or methanol injection, or intercooling, for that 12psi.

What's the application? There aren't many places you will need the current carrying capabilities of a couple hundred amp zero gauge wire in a car. Often flexibility is more of a concern in these situations anyway.

Pull the trunk liner out to reveal the back of the tail lights. The front ones I don't think you have to pull anything.. just find your way to the back of them to unscrew them. Fog light, probably try going in from underneath..? Headlights are a pain. Just have to unbolt whatever is in the...

Top info Lambo.

They are not airbags.. the big coil springs give it away

That would make the new Viper, a few Ferraris and Lambos, new Ford GT40 all illegal from the factory?? WTF?

Please tell us all about your engine, including price to build it to that!

Ross are excellent.

Is the LS PS pump the same, though? You didn't get a pump with your spare motor? Dang.. Last resort, if the kit isn't available (0.00001%) then there should be someone with a Celsior engine on alsc that got one.

Yeah, destroking also reduces the max speed of the piston, and should let you go for higher engine speeds than sleeving. Less load at each end for the crank to have to hold in.

I intend to cut down for SC manifold.. was going to follow jordy's instructions exactly (or hopefully get him to do it!) How are the later ones better for this? I've never seen a later intake manifold. My main concern is getting the mounting plate as low to the engine as possible.

Just repeating what I've learned from bike motors... guys have definitely reported pistons clipping heads at 10k RPM with squish <0.9mm on the TL1000 engine.

OK.. I believe I read about it in a mag.. definitely wasn't here.. I took special note of the destroking because I was thinking "If they can make the stroke *shorter*......." There was also talk of destroking on a bike forum I'm on at the same time - helped raise the rev limit on the engine...

Ahh, duh to me... I'm actually after the original low compression 1UZ - forgot the later ones went up half a point... are those much cheaper? I believe they are running higher redlines, but the main point was their class limit is a little lower than 4L. I've read some stuff by Larry, but...

The NZ engines are total rebuilds. Bored, destroked, hi comp on race gas, rods, pistons, crank, cams, heads, 8 TBs, the lot.. I'm familiar with motoman and know a few people who have JB'd up their intakes on bikes with excellent results. Out of interest, what does a later model 1UZ with...

Nope, 415 comes outta the old "450hp" 488ci motor. My guess is they just underrated it? I don't know about the new exhaust on the 505/500, but the 488/450 had two generations of headers.. the second was slightly better - adding it to the old generation yielded about 8-10hp. The A+ exhaust...

If you want to send these over, give me a yell. My old man's container should be leaving the east coast in about a month. You'd want to check with Customs on the duty rate though.

Rod, if we include heads, cam, intake, exhaust and tune, Vipers go from a stock 415 to 575-600. So, somewhere between 40-50%. I am a member here because the 1UZ matches my budget, and hasn't been done before. JB, the 450 with rods/pistons/big$ I don't doubt. It has already been done in NZ.

Whoa! Cool product! Probably doesn't intercool that well, but anything is better than nothing and it is CHEAP.

Firstly JBrady, I am not trying to attack you. My point coming into this was you were throwing out numbers like 450hp, and I really don't see those easily possible... that's like 350+ at the wheels. And the 335rwkw, which you didn't mean to type, I saw as 450rwhp... this is where I started, and...
