[Lasoya]

Finally cracked a 1.78 60fter tonight at fast friday and ran another small PB of 12.42 @ 113.7mph, having trouble with it dieing down a little off the line due to not enough revs after takeoff, hopefully get some prac of more 1.7 60fters and no bogging or dieing revs at high tech :)

[SSICK]

cam only refers to the amount of 'openedness' the engine has been under. ie cam only no heads. others will be unopened ie bolt ons stock cam.

Well after a little hiccup from last drag meet, here is what the new combo pulled on the dyno

http://i694.photobucket.com/albums/vv305/sgwholer/24052010009-1.jpg

First post has been updated with full list

[vzthunder]

nice car man wat type of cam u using? specs?

[Lasoya]

nice car man wat type of cam u using? specs?
Somewhere in the 230's region :)

[AGIT8D]

Somewhere in the 230's region :)

probably a very similar cam to mine, quite a few guys with the 346's using that cam with decent results.

[Lasoya]

I got 2 leaky engine mounts replaced the other day on warranty, warranty then say they are fine to pay out this claim but my warranty is now voided due to non-standard mods HAHA

[Lasoya]

Pulled 426rwhp today at the West Coast Commodore Dyno Day, runner up against an LS2

[DanWA]

awesome n/a power!

[INSINR8R]

Don't worry about the overflow, my pepsi bottle is about 2 years old haha.

Nice power figure, should see some low 11 passes once you get the hang of it.

[Lasoya]

Fitted today was some heavy duty king springs all round, koni reds all round and some kframe and diff bushes to stop axle tramp. Now just gotta wait till the second fast friday in October to run it all. Should be able to compete in 5/6 fast fridays this season

[KPWISHN]

Take note of the odometer when the Koni Reds went in. Give it a few thousand kms and pull them out and see if they're any good still. Mine lasted FA. Rears went in the bin and the fronts were rebuilt and revalved to 90/10's.

Btw, Sounds like a lot of mods happened to the rig in the last year or so. Good work. Heaps of fun no doubt.
