Curious, what made you go with the 264 combo instead of the 272s? I assume you wanted some power down low.

I got the 264s for free for helping a friend with his car. I only had stock at the time so I figured what the hell... :D

I just ordered up all the parts for my new head!!!

JMF Race SMIM
FP4R Cams
FP Beehive Valve Springs/Retainers
Standard-size Stainless Steel Valves
ARP L19 Headstuds
Fel-Pro 1153-1 MLS Headgasket

WOOT!! :hellyeah:

How much boost do you plan on running on the new setup? You should be pushing the FP3065 pretty hard with the new parts :thumb:

My plan for now is to keep the boost at 25psi and see what kind of gains I'll have with just the extra parts, some higher revs, and the same boost. I'm going to try for 500hp at 25psi if I can. Then the boost will go up! :cool:

My friend Lucas English has his 1G, "The Turd", that has made 619hp with his 3065 setup and ran 9.6@144 with it. He's really who I'm aspiring to be... :p

Here is his thread:

HAHAa 1700? Where at walmart?
 
Thanks for the kind words!

The car blew up the center diff in the original stock tranny last month at the track. It currently has a used 1990 tranny and transfer case that my friend had laying around. It's going to stay this way until I can afford a nice English Racing tranny with double synchros, etc... The PTT twin-disk was put in at the same time the '90 tranny got put in. I always leave the 3" intake pipe on it while I daily drive to keep crap out of the turbo, but take it off at the track and obviously the dyno. I'll get a 4" intake built eventually, but taking it off works for now. ;)

how exactly can you run no maf and intake at the track with no issues? please let me know thanks
 
Upper intercooler pipe. I've met him before, pretty cool guy. Not really sure what the update is though, if thats what you mean by what came of it.
 
Being that I'm the owner, I guess I'll chime in.

The GM MAF sensor was placed in the upper intercooler piping and used a MAF Translator to translate the GM MAF signal into a Mitsu signal. This replaces the stock Mitsu MAS and allows users to run vented blow off valves and/or unrestricted intake pipes... or no intake pipe at all.

Well, the update on this car was that I had an issue with the engine at the race track. The car went 11.73@120mph that night. Not bad. However, the engine developed an odd vibration that I could not track down. Unfortunately, I found that the main bearings were on their last leg due to oil starvation I believe. All of the main bearings spun, destroying the block and crank. Fortunately, the Eagle rods and JE pistons were still in good shape and I have a good 7-bolt block and crank to use to rebuild the engine good as new.

Also, I have a new 1990 GSX chassis that has a 6-pt. roll bar installed that I will be using next season. I was coming up on the times requiring the roll bar, so I bought the chassis from a friend and am going to transfer all of the good components from the 1994 into the 1990.

Here are a few crappy pics of the caged 1990:
