Do you guys think I can fit this engine in to my Corvette?

If it will fit will the TPI be able to feed it? :jester

No, but this one would

Notice the shaft mounted rockers, custom intake, mono blade throttle body and holes for a direct port nitrous system.

That one is a nice one but too small and cant use foggers have to use a plate.

Nathan, that's a sweet looking engine you linked.

MrJay...
You don't think nozzles would fit under the upper plenum? I would. That would be better than foggers anyway.

MrJay

BBA The intake is made so you can have foggers but in the class we run we cant have them we can only have a plate NOS system.
Maybe with this system they will not pass us on top end since we are going 230ci bigger engine.

You are right the rockers are nice, I bet he must have one big intake valve since he has to use a offset rocker.

Sure just :smash: it in. :lol:

You know as much as I do. I wish I could find a web page explaining it a little, all I can find is pictures.

Sure the TPI will feed it......once...as a snack.... That engine probably causes low pressure areas at the track when its run. I think the stock LT1 exhuast system pipes are just large enough to feed one exhuast port.

Big Duke !

Nathan - is that the budget build of an LT1 ? :lol:

Is that a spy photo of the new C6 engine?!? :p:

ChrisB

Those would be photo's of one of Mark Montalvo's projects. He has a whole host of LT1 buildups (and I don't think any of them are under 400 cubic inches). I sent him an email so hopefully he will check this thread out. You can also go to camarz28.com and search for him by username (vpreatr).

MarkM aka VPREATR on CZ28.com has some great projects. :cool:

He is working on a twin turbo 421 Z28 now: http://www.c-zone.net/markm/175primaries/

Pics of his car: http://www.c-zone.net/montalvo/coilovers/

Specs on his motor. I do not think it is the one in the pics above: http://www.c-zone.net/montalvo/LT4_4...ifications.xls

Of course we can't leave out my latest blown engine project as well. :)

Reference Link: http://www.c-zone.net/markm/blown421/

As for the twin turbo setup, we're just now finalizing the headers; we originally started with equal length tubes, however due small engine bay constraints they were limited to 1.5” in diameter. The primary size was far to small for my next application, the next phase was building a custom unequal length 1.75” primary. The latest revision (I’ll upload shortly) is fantastic.

If anyone has questions, I'd be more than happy to answer them.

ChrisB:
Thanks for the heads-up on the post, everyone once in awhile I get a moment to visit the Corvette Forum; its always a pleasure.

93Polo:
Thanks for the compliments, I have several projects going at the same time; last project to go into the cell was our 565 Big M Project, it made 1080fwhp naturally aspirated. (Pictures/Dyno links are on Cz28.com). I’m still resolving hub issues with the Blown 421, making the Hogan’s equipped LT1 next in the line-up for dyno testing. I had hoped to have initial runs this weekend, but time has been very limited. (Not to mention we had to finish another late model stroker engine for a fellow board member). I’m hoping to finish testing on the Hogan’s setup next week, then move onto ProjectTA’s new combination or possibly start testing the new 1.75” turbo headers. Unfortunately at times they have to take a back seat to other priorities (i.e. My real job) :)

BTW, that specification sheet is for my Nitrous 421 combination that made 832hp (in my signature; it’s being replaced by the Blown 421). I should probably take a moment and upload all the new specification sheets.

Take Care!

MrJay

VPREATR nice looking engine that you got there cant wait to see some photos of that turbo engine, I dont think I would have my hood on if I had that engine in my car :D
But I guess I would have to leave the hood off if I had that big engine in it too.
It is a 630CI and will make close to 1200hp with out the juice but with it from 1600 to 1700hp and about a same amount of TQ.

AquaMetallic94LT1 Big Duke is made by Brodix and you can get them 415cc or 456cc 18* and are Pro Stock Style Heads.

We are building two new engines to go in to a 67 Camaro that we run in Pure Street Class here in SC and NC.
One is a going to be 540ci and the other is 630ci last year we had 400ci, 402ci and 462ci SBC we are hopeing they will not pass us on the top end again.

Mr Mojo

I wouldn't mind putting this in mine.

MrJay

Me too Mr Mojo
It would be hell of a ride with 4 Turbos :D
I would even take if it just had 2 Turobs :lol:
