Incredible. Is the engine fueling through throttle bodies?

Incredible to qualify the setup or you cant thrust the bhp number on the dyno?

It seems it have a tbi ypur right but i can t confirm it... is this a good point for the 360bhp it claim?

Yes, you will obtain more bhp with ITBs, (with the matching other tuning parts).

It would be great to know the specification of the engine build.

I doubt if anyone on here has seen that double carbon airbox before.

[Dominic TVRetto]

No, but it looks very similar to some of the downdraft ITB's as you say - an airbox version of these, feeding cold air in from outside:



Combined with a spicy cam could work very well. Lack of rpm on the X-axis of the RR graph does not help analysis of cam, limiter, etc which might help.

Assuming aftermarket ECU with ITBs...

That’s how it stands at the moment
Emerald
With blended base and opend our inlet to about 52mm


Just to graft this on to a spare plenum


75mm

How sweet does that look and sound? a butterfly per cylinder is just win win IMO more low end punch more HP and they have the ability to soften any cam profile's nasty bits and that choppy/loopy idle just fades away , only ever run a choke/butterfly per cylinder on fast Ford motors and experienced the change from charge robbing stock intake manifolds on lairy Pinto''s to X Flow;s the difference was night and day

[Lolo256]

I called eggimann... It's in reallity a 5.3 fully build engine, the seller spent 30'000 pound on the engine and is now selling the car at this price, but he dont want some money + my car but only cash (:

Now get to the pod and beat my 1/4 mile time of 10.61
I really need some incentive for the garage this winter.

[hoofa]

Well here is my winter upgrade in planning

Did anyone say it had to be a TVR?

Do you still own it and how much to use it on a track day. What a fantastic car. That engine just looks right so probably is
Can two chaps get in that? Must be like being in a fighter plane. Poxy speed humps have ruined so much for so many!

I’d say your neighbours sounds like your next project car Peter but you couldn’t drive it up your private road without ramps lol!

Proper Chevy power Fun fact .....an RV8 with a mech cam can use lifters destined for the SBC/BBC motors

Sorry Alun....corrected.

How about one from underneath

[Squirrelofwoe]

You could eat your dinner off of that!!

Or more appropriately 'cook' your dinner on it!
