Default Modded LQ9's lets hear your mods and #'s

I've got a LQ9 on the way to my place right now and I'm looking to hear some NA horsepower numbers.

I'm thinking of picking up this package

no times yet but I have a 230/236 .591/.601 110lsa comp cam, comp cam extreme roller lifters, roller master double roller timing chain, thunder racing, hardden push rods, patriot stage 2 ls6 heads with 64 cc chambers, ported oil pump, and ARP rod bolts. I have a few other ods and ends but that is most of the motor work.

When I was N/A, I did 350HP to the wheels with 360TQ. Basically alot of bolt-ons and a cam (pulleys, headders, full exhaust, 160*, E-fans, Tuning, cam/springs, C/A intake and a 3000 stall). Keep in mind that I pull my front drive shaft to dyno so the numbers may be a little lower than they actually are.

That combo was good for high 13's in the 1/4 at a weight of 5460lbs with the stock 20's and AWD.

Will you be able to run 91 oct safely with 64cc? The patriot guy said I should go for 68cc's to get 10.5:1.


This is all going in a datsun 240z so I'm in more need of HP then torque.

Theres a whole site dedicated to the hybrid swaps in Z cars.

www.hybridz.org

There are kits for both old school SBC's and LSx's.

www.andrew-wong.com for some pictures of my old setup.

www.andrew-wong.com/vids/240z.wmv to see me having some fun with the old stock 350 vortec motor.

Mid length headers, TR 224/224 .563/.563 cam & bolton's got me 338/344 at the wheels. These can take much more cam than that, probably more like Halo's

I run 93 with lucas octane booster just to help out, but I was told that 93 is fine with my set up. Nelson has done the tunning for the motor and said it will be fine.
