can someone direct me in the right path.
whats up everyone, well ive wanted to build my car for a while now but just been putting it off over and over...sooo the other day i got to really thinking about it and just my like i stumbled across a motor i picked up for a sweet deal . with that said im gonna start building up an allmotor build, but in the little research ive started i cant find much for the heads other than valvetrain. So my question is who makes an availability for internals on the vq37?

until someone cracks the vvel system, internals will probably be limited. its only a matter of time though.

in for responses.
I'm almost 50, and I remember the days of Edelbrock manifolds, and Holley carbs, and hooker headers, and hurst shifters, and.... Sorry, I'm dating myself. It' amazing to me how many options there aren't for these engines. Or I'm missing something and I'd love to hear it....

Doesn't GTM offer a build kit for the VQ37?
GTM Motorsports Search for engine internals for our cars and you'll find all kinds of stroker kits, valve trains, pistons, etc etc.

the vvel doesnt use cams, per se: Variable Valve Event and Lift - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yeah, VVEL already acts as a pretty aggressive intake cam to begin with. Maybe physically adjusting the VVEL screws might finally yield some modification in the maximum/minimum lift the mechanism allows?

the exhaust cams look very similar to HR cams and i'd wager the Hr ones could fit or you could take our cams and send them to a company that makes HR cams and have them custom make you new ones, but the point of this all is pretty mute if you can't touch the vvel. I'm working on vvel tunning but the only way i have for it to work isn't very pretty or wallet friendly. you could bring our car to a motec dealer and drop 10-12 grand in an ecu and never have worries again as far as that goes. best bet for now on an NA build would be higher compression stroker, with a great portjob, and a tuned set of a tube type intake manifold/s and a set of headers to match it. All in all if you wan't NA power out of that motor prepare to spend more moeny than it took to buy the car.
