My suggestions, empty bank account in one dollar bills, dig a hole, put money in hole, grab some marshmellows and have a bon fire.burldude said:I am sure some have you have seen that I am pursuing a ti full buildup . I have found the valves cheap . I mean really cheap , to cheap to even say what Iam paying. So this will mean more money for the titanium spring manufacturing .
The bottom line is that I want to be able to rev to 14,000 safely . 60 mph in first gear is what I am after, and a little extra.
It will come down to how much air the 2.0 is going to need .
What are the cfm requirements going to be at 14,000 ? What about fuel requiremnets ? Will the aem ems be able to mantain spark at 14,000 ? Oil supply will be a factor ?
Has anyone approached these rpms ? And if so what was there setup?
I really dont want a whole lot of Horse power . Whatever I get is good , but I need to start planning around cfm .
Will I have to ditch the stock slack adjuster and go with a manuel ?
I have alot of questions I have to answer and alot of learning in the next year . Please any wiseman or knowledgable tuners contribute.
burldude said:So according to that calculator I will only need a intake tract that will flow 500 cfm . But to build boost Iam going to need more Iam sure . How much more ,double ?
I am pronouncing this guy the king of worthless threads.

:laugh:
I'll tell you all , for starters . I want idle to be bellow a 1000. I want to be able to rev to 14,000 I want power all the way there. Not such a task if you ask me with stock cars hitting 10 grand . Anyway thanks for all the infoDoes anyone know what rpm Shep Shifts at ? Somthing tells me that he is ringing his motor out and is tuned for max power at max rpms .
Another point, Indy cars from the 80's. They had a small bore . 1.5 liters Producing in excess of 1500hp Turbo charged reving to 14,000. Methanol, or ethanol then ?I will not be running 40 lbs of boost .
I can see it now dual 5 inch exhaust from a merge collector


You get ridiculed . I hope to continue with my progress . I still have many questions such as the msd dis-4 being able to keep up with 14000k limit. Also will the aem-ems unit be able to keep up .

It seems that there are a few people pushing 800hp . Iam sure they had alot of people say that" There was no way it could happen !!!" 800 is a alot of hp . As I said before Iam not after a specific number Iam after cfm.
I have alot of questions I have to answer and alot of learning in the next year . Please any wiseman or knowledgable tuners contribute.
Mirage2LTurbo said:There's really nothing wrong with the crower valve train, crower rods, both of which can be titanium. IIRC, isn't Shep on just standard Crower rods? The wrist pins are a waste, the titanium rods are a waste, and your idea to rev to 14k is a waste because you won't be able to without the type of hydraulic head listed above. Cut your losses, register under a new name, and go about your life.
!^3 said:Um...you need to build yourself a turbo motorcycle engine powered go-kart or something. All of the things you are speaking off are impossible from a layman's point of view.

. That was going to be my next suggestion, why not start with a motor that is designed to rev that high. Take one motor, toss it up front, take another and toss it in back, hell use four of them if you want. Big bore, low conpression, nitrous/turbo your fool heart out to 16k all day long, and hell you might even get a couple thousand miles out of it. Plus then you's actually have some bragging rights

Morphius said:Taking your idea and stretching it a bit........
Take street bike engine....... like that of the Hybusa or something as large. Add the following: Big bore kit, low compression pistons, larger injectors. larger fuel pump, turbo and a header. Custom adapter plate/coupler to bolt engine to DSM trans.
Wall lah.......... 14K rpm!!!!
When I'm building my twin turbo modular Ford 5.4L powered AC Cobra and putting down over 1000hp on pump gas, we'll see who's moving ahead
