For example on a vw, most all of the good performance cam grinders use 108 degree lobe centers, but with turbos they run an asymmetrical grind and 110 degree lobe centers. Some chevy cam grinders, like Crane use 114 degree lobe centers for supercharged motors, then guys like comp cams...they use 110 degree lobe centers, so with out a dyno it’s any body's guess. Tim"

Does anyone have info on our cams that I can send him? Maybe a link to some hard info about our cams, how vvel works exactly, etc? He's like a father to me, and knows his stuff and wants to help as much as he can. He's built some pretty amazing motors.

I'm not running stock cats, but I have one in my MD Y pipe and a more restrictive exhaust compared to an X or H design. It's a 200cell 3". I also have a resonator too. Ill be posting more results when I get her home and strapped in.

Sounds good man. I bet that you need that little bit with your PPE's. In for results!

Hey guys,

Can I use a thermostatic sandwich plate from an old oil cooler setup here or do I need GTM's inline thermostat due to the way the filter is relocated? (it seems insanely expensive for the GTM line kit since I think it's just a Mocal thermostat)

Great info on the SC. so what happens when you and meth in the intercoller and injected into all six intake ports. The charge cools down ?
how will the numbers change /

thanks

I have direct port meth injection installed. It only sprays when I start boosting pretty hard (over 5500rpm) I'm really using it to cool the IAT's. LTH's really warm things up, especially with all the other things stuffed under the hood. I'm sure it's good for 20-40whp, but honestly, the damn car is so flipping fast, I won't be able to tell if it did.

Yeah, they quoted me for the lines + inline thermostat.. 455. Seemed steep for just some lines, fittings and a mocal thermostat. Figured.. use the sandwich plate and their line kit w/o thermostat, if I can, but I'm not sure how the line setup is to begin with. Looks like I'd have to cap some fittings? Can't tell. Might just give up and order it all thru gtm.

Look thru my albums I may have some pics there,if not pm me and I may have some on my lap top.:tiphat:

All I see is midget porn

My oil cooler solution, this is the long filter. I will be going back to the standard hight one! It will not stick out below the frame.

is the zip tie doing anything in the pic above? are you worried the hose will pull off right there?

Socket less fittings, me no trust.

I agree SPOHN. Doesn't oil press hit almost 100lbs on cold startup? I'd throw some clamps on there. Is that filter relocated or just has a sandwich plate on there?

Baer, I'll check em out today man and I'll let ya know
