Starting my mods for this years autoX season, or Modding a C4 corvette for autox

lozer- You running the original valvesprings with the 1.6 rockers? Think it`d benefit from a retune after these changes?

Naa i swapped out to lt1 valve springs. And i bought a retune with it.



Now im hunting for a supercharger setup LOL

Heh heh, for AutoX, I`d be concerned that a blower would do more harm than good (referring to your times, not "real harm"). Might be tricky to get nice flat, linear, (and predictable) power curve. You can guess how the centrifical blower on my one Crown Vic is when it comes to AutoX

i imagine a bit of wheel spin. but if i can tune it right it should be ok.

I dunno.. I consider wheel spin to be the devil :think: I`d think that "not quite enough power" is usually just right for AutoXing, or at least better than just a bit too much.



I was beating a young guy in a modded C5 *with my Crown Vic* before he wised up and quit overdoing it on the loud pedal. OK, OK, I know...you know what you`re doing and he was, uhm...young. But you get my point



Now for a road course, well...[#^&%] yeah! 8-9 lbs of boost would really wake that car up! Just get something that`s nice and seamless with regard to on/off boost.

Oh i know about that pedal hehehehe i cut my teeth on a scarab clone i built. never did to well time wise but damn i had fun. 400 hp and about the same torque in a 280z chasis is alot of fun.

lozer- Hey, I remember those! Yeah, I *bet* that was a lot of fun



Heh heh, now don`t go turning that `vette into a bigger version of the Scarab



Listen who`s lecturing here...I keep thinking about upping the blown Crown Vic some more even though 235 rear tires can`t really cope with all that much
