The gt25r from the stock MSP spools up stupid fast.

Originally posted by metalmonkey47 View PostIt should have at LEAST 130hp on the little carb I have now. With proper side drafts I could see maybe 175HP. Turbo EFI would put me over 300HP reliably.
Why can't you man? It's easy :P

Really though, I wish I could've done this to my truck.

More into the motor build....
:The cam is older then my truck, with a 1974 grind date, and a .475 lift that should really wake this motor up combined with the big ports and big valves...
:L28 valves with dual Nismo valve springs and retainers
In the words of the previous owner...
"The entire interior surface of the crankcase was ground down to smooth it out and release the sand from the casting as well as remove casting flash.
it was strange when I started grinding the block how much sand was hitting me in the face!!!
Some people would think this will never be a problem, "its been there 20+ years and I've never had a problem!"
HA! I broke this little "tree" off with my fingernail. This kind of thing can destroy any engine, and if you plan on hitting 7000+ RPMS, everything inside the engine vibrates like crazy.
The future plan is to possibly either run twin throttle bodies with megasquirt or small turbo with a open chamber head.
I'd love to run a small T4 (or even smaller honestly) turbo with megasquirt. Cut down an L28ET intake to remove the two center cylinders, and just run megasquirt. I wouldn't even mind running a small turbo into twin throttle bodies. Imagine the sound it'd make!Last edited by metalmonkey47; 05-02-2013, 11:23 PM.
