Howdy all!
I'm starting a new project. I bought a beautiful race only coupe that is easily ready to 10's (the chassis at least). It has full drag suspension, fuel system....everything. I want to make it a low 12 second motor car and a high 10 low 11 second car on nitrous. Currently I have an injected set up for it that includes a mild motor with an ecam, thumper heads,cobra intake, aeromotive fuel system, and an S trim with pulleys to make 15 or 18 lbs of boost. I want to ditch the injection and go carbed/N20. The biggest reason is money. I just bought a bigger house and BMW so I'm broke. Anyway, I figure I can sell the injection stuff and put together a quick consistent car cheap.
The car is race only, sheetmetal interior...gutted. 2800-2850 with me in it. I want to use the same motor combo only I want to throw on an intake,carb, plate unit on it. I know that I can get this combo to run the numbers that I want but I'm not sure what intake and carb to run. Victor Jr or Performer RPM? 650 or 750cfm- mechanical or vacuum secondaries? Back in the old days I would say "bigger is better" but now-a-days I'd rather match the combo. Also, back when I ran carbed cars they didn't have carbs like the Demons (I'm going to buy a Speed Demon by the way). The car has 4.10's and it has/is set up for 28x10.50 slicks. I figure it will make power t0 6500 rpm which is perfect for a Performer RPM and a little low for a small inch motor with a Victor Jr.
Does anybody have a combo like this that runs good? Thumper?? Tmoss?? I'm really going for the "less is more" kind of combination. Anybody? Ideas?
