How much for the 3b long block?
Greg

I'd love to buy a set of these, does anyone know their availability?

I wonder if it makes sense to just go with a reman like this instead of trying to source a used one

Looks like some nice upgrades.

Phil,
Thanks i appreciate the time to help me. Suspension has been the real issue with this car. The first leagues we raced it in wouldn't allow us to change the suspension, even the springs, so with the weight loss it was just horrible. We are still running the orignal front struts, they are the ...

Jimmy,
Your car is amazing, i've read through the build post in the past, absolutely love it! Thanks for your tips. I've seen the thread on here about the universal ground control plates looks really good, i wonder if the fab kit is still available. KW would be really nice, do you know if anyone ...

I've been thinking about using this for the crank trigger, seems like the best setup

Ok, sorry to resurect this old build thread but the time has come to get this car going again. I've been racing some other cars but i've got the itch to race some Lucky Dog races and this is just the car for that. So i need to come up with a plan and get this car ready in about 60 days. What I ...

I've just been collecting parts. I didn't race it this year, but I did the previous year. I never could get together all the parts I wanted so i might change my plans a little with it. I'm waiting on a new place to do the work.

Chris I think that you are right that the EFR 7163 is the best turbo, they question just comes down to money. I think that I'd be into that turbo for $2200, investing that type of money would make me want to spent a lot more on the supporting mods. This year I'm looking to step up but that might be ...

Got busy at work today, i'll call you later Mark.
I have the opportunity to buy a used 15K mile gt3071 for $500 or a gt3076 for $600. I'm thinking of purchasing the gt3076, seems like a good deal and a pretty good turbo for what I'm doing. Any thoughts are appreciated. The 76R has a Garrett .82 A/R ...

Chris,
Do you think that the Treadstone TRV25 is a little to much for me. It's rated at 1000hp and is pretty big, the bumper would block most of it. What about this one http://www.treadstoneperformance.com/product.phtml?p=68302&cat_key=63&prodname=TR82+Intercooler+500HP would fit ...

Taking a look at the Borg Warner turbos vs the Garret turbos. Borg Warner is much cheaper or at least I've found some deals. Does anyone have experience with the BorgWarner AirWerks line, particularly the S200sx products. Nearly half the price as a Garret BB of similar specs, built for racing. They ...

Hi,

we have several harness options. the vems "80%" harnesses are not a bad start but still require some work to complete. I have them in stock as well as the ecus. we're open 9-5 M-F EST, if you leave a message after hours I'll return call. We get lots of super annoying robo calls so no voicemail ...

He probably will, I just tried to call but they are closed. I'm wondering what he has for harnesses.

I didn't order from efiexpress, direct from vems in Europe. Didn't realize there was another option. I'll take a look
--ok I took a look, I'll cancel my order especially if he is willing to provide support. I didn't see any harness options on his site, I'll have to call him. Thanks again for the ...

Just ordered a Vems V3 with the twin shield harness, I'll add that to the first post. Here is the spec I ordered, should be close I think
1 x v3TwinShieldHarness (T)
custom length unspecified
extra TESA tape yes
injectors I6
with_connector LSU4.9connector
with_relays yes
1 x ECU VEMS V3 (v3.6 ...

I'm configuring the vems to order it right now. Does anyone know what the 1 wire interface option is about? Also 2 knock sensors vs 1 I would think, single EGT, 400kpa, hall for the primary and secondary trigger I'd assume if I use the distributer, let me know if I'm wrong. Also I'm going to order ...

Chris, wow thanks for your answers and the time it took, really appreciate it. I'll digest this. The intercooler is perfect, thanks for the part number. I'll upgrade the the oil system in the future, no baffle right now, was thinking about an acusump, but haven't worried about it to much. I need to ...

Here is a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWsVSAedl2k of a race. This was last year at Oregon Raceway Park. The driver is Josh, it's his first racing experience ever! He got a lot faster as the day went on. The camera makes it look really slow, but the car is actually moving pretty ...

Would love to find some good used parts to keep the budget down, let me know if anyone has something I need. I posted on Motorgeek in the swap meet section asking for parts also.

Looking at the Xona turbo's they are probably out of my price range. The Borg Warner EFR turbos look real good and are priced less then the Garrets, at least what I've seen on websites, this might be the way to go. Treadstone intercooler looks really good, priced nice, I think that I'll lock that in ...

No, keep the 3b head. It makes no difference once you are on vems other than your cam synch signal will come from the (otherwise) not used distributor rather than the trigger up by the cam gear like on the aan head.

I will weigh in soon with my opinions on the rest of this when I get a minute ...

Should I be switching to an AAN head for Vems?

I'm confused how you are going to put a huge turbo, upgraded internals, full coilover suspension amoung other things and not be killed when you get to tech. Seems to me they will hand you a hundred lap penalty for pulling up with a car like this.

Edit, I see you are doing a different series. I ...
