What is an anti-rev system? Another name for overboost fuel and timing control?

traction control built into the ms system , can be used with a driveshaft speed sensor or and abs sensor , or if u dont have those u can do it rpm vs time

u can effectively set the rate of acceleration

Re: Single turbo 352 iroc 1000hp or bust the grand finale

Pretty sure they 29 x 10.5's wont fit unless you want it to sit like a 4x4.

My car nicely tucks Hoosier 28x 10.5's, and a 275 pro on a 15x10" with 7.5" BS (4th gen width 9")

I've always matched my tire size (along with rear end combo) so that I'm crossing the finish line at my target MPH at just over peak HP (rpm).

Re: Single turbo 352 iroc 1000hp or bust the grand finale

well ive got some bad news , i took the car out today , and after a while i started getting a squeling, and rattle with the car in gear , it doesnt completly go away in park or neutral , but u do have to really listen for it.

i think i either broke the converter , or my flexplate is cracked. have to get it to the shop and put it back on the lift to see, unfortunatly the shop is tied up right now with heavy machinery for the farm so im not sure how long it will be before i can get the car in .

as of right now we have a case loader in the shop blocking the door and lift , the motor is apart in it atm and as soon as thats back together i have to drop the front differential out of it

One thing about turbo cars and old farm equipment, they keep you busy. Always something to fix.

I am guessing broken converter. Maybe ballooned and took out the pump.

looks like the flexplate is cracked the converter is moving around a bit at idle , and the starter grinds in one spot now when i start it
so seems to be a simple fix , i needed to put an sfi flexplate in it anyway , i only had a stocker in it

the dealer sent us the wrong head gaskets for the case loader so shop will be tied up until the new ones come in hopefully i can sneak the car in the shop right after we get the loader out.
its just about time for us to start working and watering the fields so lots of work to do o n the farm itself so going to be rough to get the car on the lift
right now we have 2 fields to plant and we start watering on the 15th , besides that we have 2 new pivots to install in 2 fields.
not looking forward to the amount of work that needs to be done over the next 2 weeks

Re: Single turbo 352 iroc 1000hp or bust the grand finale

ill be parting or selling the car mid september after i take it to boneville , due to my racetrack closing and the next nearest being a 600 mile trip ive decided i cannot justify keeping the car, even as a daily driver . if i part the car i will put a stockish replacement tpi motor back in it and drive it , if the whole car sells thats fine with me to.Ive got to many toys now lol


for u guys that have close racetracks specially if they are small lil independant tracks do what u can to support them or u may lose them and not have a place to race anymore!

Just part the engine and the turbo setup, then put the 3400 you're working on in the Camaro.

Hell, I'd be interested in the heads and intake...

ive actualy toyed with that idea already, it might happen just need to see what i would have to do about the starter being on the wrong side of the engine if i use the fwd block

ive got a long time to think about what im going to do , only thing lanned is my car will be in 2 parades in town in july and then sit again till boneville in sept


my only hope is that they find a new location to build a track at between now and sept , but so far its not looking to good

I keep telling you, come back to Joisey, plenty of jobs here, and the competition at e-town is fierce. E-town will be here forever...

I have a complete 3.8 out of a 4th gen that you can have bro, and I am serious (only if you come back, no way am I shipping it lol).

Re: Single turbo 352 iroc 1000hp or bust the grand finale

Thread title is 1000 hp or bust. No track no problem. Take to nearest dyno and spend a few sessions and see what you can make out of it. Wont crank 1000whp with a single 475 on those cubes but 750-800 would be very good.

Telling me how to live? In what capacity? Fifty one percent of the people vote for the laws that the other forty nine percent must abide by, but the laws are ever changing, they are not set in stone. Everyone has their day in court. I have a vested interest in New Jersey in terms of real estate, and work in New York City. There is no other place aside from the Metropolitan areas that will pay me my desired salary, not to mention I was raised as a corporate yuppie. I will gladly pay an increased property tax to keep crime to a minimum, as well as maintaining for the highest of property value as possible. We all pay taxes, and we all abide by ever changing state and federal legislation. Aside from the alleged internet rumors and conspiracy theories, we are nowhere near being socialist, we are and forever will be free trade based, and we need the Federal Reserve. The people in Washington, although are good people, are incompetent in terms of management and use the Federal Reserve as a scapegoat because they can't live within their liberal means, in turn paying their debts to the Bank of International Settlements, which all central banks adhere to, through us. Aside from this, they do not tell me how to live, I do as I wish but in accordance with the laws that are put into place by the people we vote into office. Liberal Hollywood, along with their liberal media, grease the liberal politicians, which is how the conservatives get the rug pulled out from under them while they scratch their heads in wonder. It took someone like Trump to show everyone who the crypto Republicans really are, and they will be dealt with in time. But again,the politcal spectrum swings back and forth, but they do not tell me how to live, and I am far from being politically correct...

I don't want to derail the thread too far off topic, but the gun control laws in Jersey are borderline tyrannical for starters. I don't know what your desired salary is, but I do OK in NH and I also own more than one home.

I've been to Jersey twice. Once in the 90s, and once shortly after 9/11. All I saw both times was crime and filth. I'm sure it has it's nice parts.

I've been to Jersey twice. Once in the 90s, and
once shortly after 9/11. All I saw both times was crime and filth. I'm sure it has it's nice parts.

I will gladly pay an increased property tax to keep crime to a minimum, as well as maintaining for the highest of property value as possible. We all pay taxes, and we all abide by ever changing state and federal legislation. Aside from the alleged internet rumors and conspiracy theories, we are nowhere near being socialist, we are and forever will be free trade based, and we need the Federal Reserve. The people in Washington, although are good people, are incompetent in terms of management and use the Federal Reserve as a scapegoat because they can't live within their liberal means, in turn paying their debts to the Bank of International Settlements, which all central banks adhere to, through us. Aside from this, they do not tell me how to live, I do as I wish but in accordance with the laws that are put into place by the people we vote into office. Liberal Hollywood, along with their liberal media, grease the liberal politicians, which is how the conservatives get the rug pulled out from under them while they scratch their heads in wonder. It took someone like Trump to show everyone who the crypto Republicans really are, and they will be dealt with in time. But again,the politcal spectrum swings back and forth, but they do not tell me how to live, and I am far from being politically correct...
My buddy nearly got tackled for trying to pump his own gas in jersey. Lol. There is youtube vids showing jersians how to pump gas when they go on vacation. That stuff pretty much blows my mind, as I would pump my moms gas when I was like 8 years old.

I dunno, the episode I was talking about above was several years ago. He said some guy came running out yelling "stop, you cant do that!!!" And later I stumbled across the how to pump gas videos. Maybe this is an isolated area type thing? I guess street would know?

Have lived in New Jersey for awhile now, born and raised in NYC though. Was one of the first things that surprised me was that I couldn't pump my own gas, it's been like that for as long as I've known over here. If the minimum wage does in fact reach $12 - $15 dollars though I can almost guarantee they will start making customers pump their own gas while giving their employees the axe. I actually prefer they do it. On the way to the track I don't mind. But on the way to Atlantic City for the night, or to a nice restaurant, and I don't even want to get out of the car, let alone smell like fuel lol...

Had some fun with some Arab guy over in East Brunswick last year when I had the '95 Corvette, took him twenty minutes to find the gas cap door. When he asked me where it was I told him I had no idea, and that I just picked up the car, and that I was in a rush lol. Funny as hell, had him sweating, but then finally told him where it was and gave him a good tip before I left...

By the time TnT starts it usually cooled down enough. Otherwise, the 100° days lasts until September. If you don't want to deal with the heat, probably not even worth trying to run it. My friend ran his hot air Buick in the high heat. If you're worried spray meth.

I thought about that myself years back, looks fun as hell, and dirt bikes are cheap.

E-Town over here has a killer track setup for it too, but there are too many kids trying to out do each other...

Re: Single turbo 352 iroc 1000hp or bust the grand finale

I'm from north NJ and have been my whole life. Can't say it's the best and particularly where I'm located 30min from etown isn't exactly "nice" but it's a different kind of crime. Had my firebird stolen and gutted in Newark back in 2012 i think. I would love to move out to a different state without such harsh DMV laws/penalties etc and taxes in NJ are the worst! Owning property really opens your eyes to stuff like that.

Etown I would never race at, sorry! If I decide I want to race I'll go to island drag 100% of the time.

its not worth buying a bike just to take to the e-town practice track, and if u think cars are expensive wait till u buy a high performance 4 stroke dirtbike

top end rebuild on my bike was 700$ , recommended maintenance items are
timing chain every 10 hours 90$
pistion rings every 20 hours price of rings + hone
oil change every 5-10 hours about 18$ without filter i change mine every 2 oil changes

if u keep the titianum valves and lite wieght valve train top end rebuilds are frequent, my bike was redone with stainless valves and heavier valve sprinsg so i dont have to worry about the frequent top end rebuilds but it does kill off some upper rpm power due to the added valve train wieght

next rebuild im going to install a 290cc big bore kit and a set of hot cams camshafts

the bill gets big quick when u ride all the time

took mine out yesterday


im actually working on the camaro today , been busy reinstalling the door panels and interior , and tidying up the electrical

... I sadly spend seven hundred dollars in two hours in Atlantic City every time I go, which is way more than I should, but spending doesn't bother me, especially if I get something tangible out of it other than getting pissed at Caesars Casino. I am not into dirt bikes though, but if I do get another bike it will be a turbo busa as I'm not about to drive a dirt bike in the streets of New Jersey lol. As for the e-town practice track, who you fooling, you would kill to have a track like that by you lol. Your dirt bike video shows you driving home through what appears to be, or highly resembles Area 51, with an occasional blip of the throttle, come on man how is that better than etown lol? Back to the topic though, how is the interior/electrical in the Camaro coming along.

I have a black passenger side door panel off of one of my old Camaro's, it was an '87 if memory serves me correctly. I can look around for other interior pieces if you need Dave, whatever I have left, if you need, you can have, just pay shipping...
