Re: asshanson--pics or ban!

I like my V better than the looks of that porsche. And right now it is about as fast as a stock M5, only the 09+ V's have the stock supercharger, older ones only made 400hp at the crank stock.

How did this get off topic anyway?

Plans for next year are overdrive crankshaft pulley and retune. Thinking about e85 but don't know if my pump will keep up and I've heard they're a PITA to install. I would also like to do a cam bit I have no idea how to on a pushrod v8. Time for learning, next year.

Re: asshanson--pics or ban!

yay for big cams! Go with what's dyno proven to make the most power the most reliably on that application. I doubt your fuel system will be able to do E85 since that kit comes with a boost-a-pump already...not sure what would fit into that thing though. IMHO leave it on pump gas unless you can find someone else doing it...who knows what stuff could get deteriorated by the ethanol...it is a GM product after all. I know when they started doing flexfuel stuff they had a handful of stuff that needed to be replaced.

Re: asshanson--pics or ban!

cams are easy to do just have to take the push rods out to get one in really, also the radiator so there is room to slide it right out
