1000 hp

[V6RACER]

Man, I guess my 109 isn't reliable... Better get rid of it. HAHA

Going on 4 years on this 109 and it's been consistant and reliable.

don't waste your time or money trying to build a 1000hp 109. i've read that you can make 1500 with a basically stock LSx block and good internals.

At 3550 and 143-144 mph ur car would be making about 810-825 to the wheels. That's not near fast enough for a 9.0 pass.

Your right its enough for an 8 sec pass. Read post #19. Your calculator must be wrong. I come up with about 810 at the flywheel to go 143mph.

 

[bison]

it traps 140+mph so its definetly over 900 hp

Nope. Definitely over 700hp would be a true statement.

Depends on the dyno and depends on the car setup... You can play calculator all day...

850 on a correct dyno with the right combo on the track should put you around that elusive low 9 figure. So at the flywheel, well I don't know the math but you get the point but should be a thousand...

These guys have done it, listen to them

Lol thats some good stuff right there remember tsm cars weigh 3550. We made 800 rwhp and ran 9.0@150 with a stage motor on one car and we made 815 with Roys in tsm trim at one point and it only ran 9.40 or 9.30s and we trapped 146 or so .

I went 142mph letting out before the end @ 756rwhp. This is in a full weight GN

Dynos dont tell chit and we both know that. HP = (mph/234)3 x weight.

150 mph is what it will take to get to the 9.0 range at 3550. Its probably closer to 800-815 to the wheels I guess but not 810 at the flywheel.

More like 930-940 at the flywheel. Plug in 150 mph at 3550 lbs or do the simple calculation. Its not exact but it aint that far off. Stealth 316 - Formulas for 1/4 mile ET & mph vs. hp & wgt

Well, a TSM car weighing 3550 lbs. going 9.0 in the 1/4 makes approx. 960 rwhp so it definately is possible and one or two have gone even faster.

Going TA or S2 is a no brainer as they will both handle more power obviously but that's not what he was asking.

Exactly Brett. Even with the best built 109's, when you push them to the low 9's, they break, so stage it or dont go for that high of power, its only money right $

Money? Is that what they call it? I keep thinking it grows on trees in my back yard and then I realize it's all in Buick.

thats mph/234 cubed. not times 3.

Ok i got one for you how fast can u go on a stock shortblock no girdle no caps with a 6776 turbo in a 3500 buick . Then also how much rwhp can a 67 p trim produce and i will give u the answer .

I know that bonehead. It was a lazy way of posting it cubed.

High 9s and about 610rwhp is my guess

1000hp...........109..............Street.....................

I had no idea until today that those words would even fit into the same sentence

Well on paper it makes 780 flywheel hp which would be about 600 or so rwhp . The old t63e i ran years ago made 600 rwhp at 28 psi and at 3800 lbs it ran a best of 10.60@128 . Muddin your a little short anymore quesses ?
