My bro's just got his motor back for his VL calais. 355 stroker made 531hp at the flywheel with a little more to come... once he's sorted out his setup should do 10s...
mrTUFFER... what is it? VL? stroker i'd imagine.
ido 11, its got widened pursuit wheels for the slicks and centreline front runners. i get the car back hopefully this friday or early next week from Jack bros (suspension mods, new balancer, tune, service motor/box/diff and handbrake fixed). then i'm taking it to the track FINALLY!
anyone else done some quick times here with a V8?
Yer the Vr is mine, full trim and full boot install
Went december 05 @ Heathcote 10.71@128.3
60 foot times were 1.8-1.9
Turned it to 6800-7000rpm with a very conservitive tune
Specs;
355 Stroker

1200cfm quad throttles
11:1 compression
Serious ported/flown heads 586@5000

This engine combo hasnt seen the dyno and i doubt i will as we tune it on the street as this is where its driven, i now have it ready to race again and this time i shall see what it can do with new slicks, race fuel, race tune, and ill turn it to 8000rpm this time, i wont be soft!
