Well, only 6 more weeks till Spring, and its finally getting warm enough to want to sit out in the unheated garage. And I have been reading and reading and I this is what I've come up with. My current mods are up to date in profile, and the only change from mods to 1/4 mile time was addition of FP2 cams.
Idea: Running as much boost and timing until making out 52/lbs a min without knock. Reving to 8500 while hitting full +30psi below 4k. I don't know if I will be laughed at, but I think I will be able to have full boost from 3800-8500rpms with a good amount for timing from e85. Though the setup leans towards the drag strip set up, it is my goal to keep it completely fun to drive daily.
Bottom end
-Eagle H beam rod/Ross 9.0;1 compression with cryo treated rods,pistons,rings, and Tri metal ACL bearings. Stock crank. L19 headstuds.
Head
-Stock 1g head with fp2 cams and Manley single springs and retainers. Freshened up 3 angle grind and seats. FULLY functional cyclone intake manifold with quick deburing for free HP. FP manifold.
Fuel- Fuel lab FPR and 1600cc injectors.
Things I am not sure of yet...
Not sure if the OEM crank needs balancing?
What injectors are proven not to gum up. My PTE 1000s never did.
Are L19 headstuds overkill?
Will my felpro headgasket still be good enough, I won't be knocking.
I am not sure if I have over looked anything, please feel free to point out the obvious and I will read read read. Shooting for tens this year. Suspension and tires will be in anther thread in a few days
