    71 Duster 360 turbo build

    Is this Megasquirt? It’s not the rev limiter or AFR safety system kicking in at 6k?

    Is it ok to copy a W5 head and make it better or are we just mad at Speedmaster

    I salivate over that Ritter block. Really nice piece but what’s wrong with it that it needs competition in what is probably a really tiny market place for high HP capable SBM blocks? The cost?

    71 Duster 360 turbo build

    What are the symptoms of valve float? Does it happen under any amount of boost or only when you get up into the higher PSIs? Is this with the exhaust wide open? I noticed in my back pressure tests that my RPM was hitting a 5800-5900 ceiling when running through the muffler.

    Thinking of moving to Florida in the next year

    That program is a bit of a mess even if well intentioned. We had Citizens, the state subsidized plan and about the only one left. The “depopulation” plan blindly moved us to a new carrier without any prior notice at a 20% increase in premium, on top of the 33% increase we’ve been seeing just...

    Thinking of moving to Florida in the next year

    Surf Zillow and research pricing in different areas based on your housing criteria. I’m in S. Florida and housing is crazy expensive but I’ve also looked around the state in lots of other areas and haven’t found any real bargains. Property taxes are high and climbing and it seems more and more...

    speedmaster stuff pulled from Summit racing shelves

    I’m intrigued to see how this plays out. The name suddenly appearing on this VB just doesn’t accidentally happen.

    Measuring boost back pressure

    I’ve thought about going that route also but I’d have to rebuild my hot side to get a s475/s480 to fit. What I’m really itching to do is two smaller turbos tucked up inside the fender wells behind the headlights. :)
