Re: 400+ NOS hp V8 conversion
The car is off from sale.
Season was too boring without any issues and problems
Broke only 2 driveshafts and after the end of the season just made some fun and killed the engine that had to came off the frame because it was too tired stock engine I bought and never opened for 300€ only. Sold the NOS kit too

Yeah that old valve-in-piston tech never runs right.
Addendum to Newtons first law:
zero vehicles on jackstands, square gets a fresh 090 and 1911, cabby gets a blower.
EZ3.6 Vanagon after that.(mounted, needs everything finished) then Creamsicle.

Re: 400+ NOS hp V8 conversion
actually not, 25cm2 hot side is really good for 4200cc
I´ve been tested hx55 on bmw 4.0 engine and it made 550kw 800Nm from wheels with only 1.3 bar of boost and woke up nicely

Holy Crap, That is too big for my 5.9L Cummins. But I am sure your redline is much higher than 3200RPM. Cant wait to see how this works for you. Should make some serious power 600hp plus.

Re: 400+ NOS hp V8 conversion
Engine should be 95% done and I´m thinking about putting it to body and try to race on sunday (half legal season opening event)
I have 2 days....needs all the cooling system because radiator will go to front end now. Needs new fuel system for ethanol. Some wires and tune. All kind of liquids and putting together new custom made strongest halfshafts.

Wow! What a "gooser" for that engine. I hope only the wrinkle wall tires wrinkle not everything else .
