I'll start with my current setup: 87 Grand National 3.8, bored .010 over, rings file-fit
Full forged Eagle rotating assembly, H-beam rods, JE pistons, billet mains (all 4 of them). Full internal balance. 212/212 hydraulic isky camshaft (non-roller)
Ported irons, ported intake to match, stock throttle body slightly ported to match upper plenum
Stock headers, 3.5 downpipe, external 46mm wastegate, Cotton's CPT-60 ball bearing turbo, stock intercooler (I do have a large FMIC, not installed right now). Bailey's 2-step.
255 lph fuel pump, accu pressure regulator, 80# Siemens injectors
Power logger/Scan master 2.2, Razer Alky. 93 octane (or race gas depending on if it's available)
Slightly built trans (2nd gear band upgrades, clutches, billet servo, anchor pin etc)
Dave Husek lockup converter 2800 or 3k stall, can't remeber
Regularly running around 25-27 lbs boost.
The car hauls ass as-is right now, although I have not taken it to the track for official times. GPS app and gadgets of that nature estimate me around high 10's, not sure of the accuracy.
I have an SD chip and I am well versed in dyno and engine tuning, so no need for chip reccomendations here
What I want to do:
E-85 conversion (I will be using a Hellcat fuel pump and correct fuel lines to support). Roller cam setup. Larger turbo. New headers to support the correct turbo (4 bolt or band).
Goals: I'm looking to get around 900whp and run low 10's when all is said and done, with the possibility of high-mid 9's with the proper drivetrain and some other supporting components.
I would like some of you turbo guru's out there to chime in and suggest some high HP turbo models and the type of header pedestal I need to run them.
Some of you E85 guys, what injector size would give me enough headroom to hit my goals?
Engine builders, what is a good roller cam to run with the desired output and what do I need to do to my stock heads to run a roller, or should I just get Champions?
Thanks! -Steve
