:eek4: That’s damn impressive.

Wray and I were taking. K series interests me, but it seems like there’s more knowledge and parts around about B series. This is the first time I’ve ever tried anything like this. I’ve built a 2.3 Ford HSC motor, but never a high boost/high compression app.

eg + Kboost = mucho dinero in turbo + tuning on top of Sailor’s estimate, but it would be really sweet. Big cube + high volume of boost…

Which is why I’m posting questions like this and talking to people who blow these up like it’s their job 🙂

…not what I want to do: I’d like to hear all the angles so I get a good enough picture for what I will eventually do and understand the ins-and-outs of the various things that could be done.
