Im looking for a recipe that would fit my car. Its not a GN or T Type, its a Cutlass that started life with a 231. The car has proven 11.20's capabilities and I believe it can go as fast as 10.50. Current drivetrain components include:
4.11 geared 9" Ford
SSM Liftbars/air bags/adjustable upper control arms/soon to be converted to coil over shocks
THM-400 transmission with B&M 2800-3200 10"
converter
8 point roll bar with extra bracing added for rear suspension/15 gallon fuel cell
A rebuilt 86 GN long block with a Comp Cams 206/TRW pistons/86-87 iduction/ACCEL DFI/mild home ported heads with polished chambers
I can run up to a 30" slick
I expect the car to weigh somewhere in the 3350 to 3450 range with the V6 turbo engine and myself
I dont mind driving a "race car" on the street
I aquired Hooker Super Comps thinking that the 4.11 gears and 3200 stall capability would help compensate for any lag the Hookers might create
I have every intention of running a front mounted intercooler
Now, what I need help with is turbo and injector selection. Im looking for ~500 flywheel horsepower OR 10.99 elapsed time
I also need feedback on the current components in/on the car
Im sitting out this race season(and only this race season!) to build and tune this turbo motor so things are happening quick for me. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your time and effort with this matter.
