I googled LS7 clutch and ended up on your tread about your car How is it going? your engine sounds awesome Is it now reliable and performing as it should?

it's fine. Makes 763whp on 18psi boost but destroyed the diff, followed by the clutch. Now runs 702whp happily at 14psi (~860fwhp). The problem is the torque; the extra 4psi = 100lbs extra which kills the drive train. Max torque available from 2.5k rpm until the red line.

I bet that wheel spins just flooring in 5th gear let alone in the lower gears. Needs lots of respect, Must be amazing to

It will spin the wheels in 5th if provoked and pulls like a train everywhere. The TVS2300 power delivery is softer than the 122 I had before, I guess because it isn't working so hard.

My car has taken a lot of development but all big builds do and it's now finished...nearly Mark has it at the moment to fit some scan gauges which I'm happy with as I don't want to drive it in this weather!

Are you going to run it at thunder road 2010?

[anonymous-user]

Cheers guys. Jamie, I'd like to run it at several things as the reliability should be there now and I've barely driven it for a year. It will be nice to get some use from it during 2010 and run it against Harry , Jez and your good self. In the dry it should go well.

Is there a published calendar of events for this year?

That's impressive from a 3 litre (?) six. Amazing engines and bloody impressive on the strip I bet, what's your best time?
