We have different set ups for sure but my factory ZO6 pump a boost a pump and ID 1300 wouldn’t support E50, went lean at 5000rpms for what it’s worth.

Was it the one with the liners not pressed in all the way? I’ll probably be there Thursday to drop off my new pistons.. not sure if anyone caught it, but the spark plug notch in the piston is in the wrong place.. should be in the center if the two valves.. not in the middle of the intake

Oh that doesn’t sound like mine. I guess there’s another ERL block there getting fixed. It would be funnier except I’m the one paying for ERL’s mistakes haha

Looks real good. Those are all top notch parts and I am sure she is going to scream.
But if this is a track car, what have you done to address the following?
But if this is a track car, what have you done to address the following?
- Brakes
- Tires/Wheels
- Suspension
- Heat mitigation (radiator, oil cooler)
- Oiling system (dry sump tank insert and oil pan baffle)
- Aero
- How to put E85 in your tank when the track doesn't have E85. 91 octane isn't going to cut it at 13:1
- Safety (harness, harness bar etc)
Grab good pads ( Carbotech/Hawk), grab good wheels (Forgestar F14's are cheap in 18x11/13). LG CO's are cheapish at $2k. Grab a Dewitt's radiator. Mordeth can tell you about oiling mods like a baffle/larger sump. Grab ZR1 aero at least for stability. Bring E85 by the drum to a track. Grab a harness bar/Schroth 6-point/race seat to start for the inside.
Also, do a custom cam. Spend the money right the first time.

Interesting he wants a track toy and did not address this.

BT Stage 3 cam? Why? A custom cam will yield much more than a cookie cutter cam and cost difference is very little if any. You will leave power, RPM among other things on the table.

Going with a walbro450.. or is there something better? 525?
