My actual numbers from TPIS. 113 CNC porting w/ 2" I / 1.56"E valves and 60cc chambers.
Flow #'s .100 .200 .300 .400 .500 .600 In. 55 122 193 242 270 262 Ex. 40 112 154 181 197 205 Their advertised numbers are less w/ stock 58cc but who really knows...That's why I jumped in on the "end all be all thread". It's all bs until the car runs down the track or gets strapped to the roller. TPIS link: http://tpis.com/index.php?module=cata ... ategory=Ported+Cyl.+Heads Cheers, Matt

Ouch! The hard truth about how close we are to having a really bad day every time we hit the track.
Also a good reminder that safety mods should come before performance upgrades.

I don't know about ball bearings but they make hubs according to Autozone and my receipt. I always thought of Timken as being a good ole US of A mfr. but you're probably right about where it came from, who knows??

It's strange how the hub broke completely at the flange. My guess is the track(Putnam Park)was the primary reason. A few too many right turns pulling 1.6g's.(data aq.) The last 2 turns before the front straight also have some pretty good bumps that load the car up.

A few C5 guys have reported hub failures over the past month that were exactly what I had in early May. Left rear Timken hub w/ 4-5 weekends. It didn't like the Hoosiers...

Hi guys, I'll keep this short for now but I am getting screwed by the infamous Carl Shuhi (vettepartsonline.com). He has basically stolen my D44 and I am racing in 5 days........
More on that later. First, will a dana 44 from an LT4 car work in my '88 and what is the ratio.\?? Thanks in advance, Matt

Kewl. He didn't pick up an extra differential by chance??? DHL lost mine!! It shows that it's been in Wilmington , Ohio all week. Stupid Phuckers.......grrrrrr This has actually given me time to mount my G2x,Hans, and a rear view camera! It's sweet, a little 2.5" screen is mounted on my dash and the wireless camera mounts to the rear license plate. My mirror sucks so maybe this will help. ($98 at WalMart)

"....They want to, they talk/fantasize about it, but they hype it up into some big unobtainable thing and then never show...."
Yup, or the other type that I run into are the ones that are more into the "idea" of doing it but never man up to give it a try. It's cool that you are getting into it CC and nice job btw. (two thumbs up fo sure)

I think we both were faster than Jerry at Mid Ohio last August but that was his first weekend w/ the car. (I just wanted to point out the GT3 for the OP to see a comparison) And yes, I think you'll have him covered.
Also for the OP, on paper a six figure supercar wins every time but on the track the driver is the biggest performance factor. I agree w/ you on "Junior". He seems like a pretty cool character. I wonder if he's sick of people asking him to do the Ward Burton imitation.

Stay tuned for NASA Mid Ohio results (April 11-13)........
The TTS class will have a GT3 running against some fast C4's. (Spectator) On another note, if any of you watch the show "Setup" on Speed, Mike "Junior" Johnson will also be competing in TTS. My money is on the vintage bowtie brigade.

The cars look great Jon. I must have missed the part where you painted the new one to match. Are you still on course for ST2 @ Mid Ohio? What about Double OH 7?
I signed up for PTA to take advantage of the Hoosier and Pfadt contingency (hopefully). I'm also working on Graber to let PTA race w/ the ST group so we can still have some fun. I'm in the same boat w/ a car in pieces. It's not like I had the last 6 months to ship out my diff.....

Oh yeah,
1) aluminum underdrive pulleys 2) Time w/ a grinder on the intake 3) Remove all of the parasidic crap (A/C, Air pump,....) 4) 10:1 CR is free (points wise) 5) CNC ported 113's w/ larger valves flowing ~260 6) 24 lb. svos that are probably on the car already (adjust as needed w/ FPR)

That sounds pretty similar to my setup less the blueprinting. I would guess that the heads AND intake have had some work if it's making over 300rwhp. At a minimum the heads are reworked to handle .530" of lift.
You should be able to get around 320-335 rwhp max w/ a TPI setup. The downside is that your power is done by ~5200 rpm. You can always add a MINiRam but I think that would bump you out of TCC or vintage?? What year is it and what's it weigh?? The MAF cars have an advantage If you are trying to keep it in PT instead of ST since you can get away w/ most engine mods without burning a new chip. (saving 5 points) If you want the car down around 2700 lbs then plan on lexan,aftermarket hood, and a melrose top. Sounds cool. Keep me posted.

There goes the neighborhood... LOL, Thanks for the welcome guys! I have a MOMO Start seat. It's great for the price. I think they are up to ~$250 now. It's FIA approved so you don't need to spend another $130 on a seatback brace. You can try it on this weekend if you want.
