Re: Head gasket Q's fort 90mm CR
but the real question is will the felpro work with the oversized pistons?? my block was bored .040 over which is 89mm I believe. after assembling the freshly resurfaced head and block with a cometic HG I have found it leaking from the exhaust side of the block. I want to put the Felpro HG on but do...

Re: Radiator upgrade option?
It's a drift car.
The new fad to mount the radiator in the trunk, I'm not sure I want to go this route yet. But I'm starting to think about it.

Radiator upgrade option?
I have a misimoto aluminum radiator in my car and it's not keeping up. Does anyone know the detentions of it and where to find a bigger one. I have a single 16" spal 3k cfm, and the isis 165* therm. On the street I'm cool... But track days where I live have been a challenge. Going from 180 to 2...

Re: new kat dyno z31 turbo 8psi
Because forged internals=lower compression ratio.
Low boost, over safe tune. Rich and retarded

Re: new kat dyno z31 turbo 8psi
I got a new set up not, the old one detonated a piston after 1.5 years... I overheated the motor hot lapping at the track.
New engine is built, pretty much the same everywhere else, excepts I went with a gt3076r.
I made 280/270 on a mustang dyno at 13-14 psi

Re: Huffman's drift missile KAT (new motor)
Sorry for not keeping up to date. Been busy with the car for sure. I've complete 4 events so far on the new setup... Broke some things, hit some things, killed lots of tires, and changed a lot of things.
You'll see soon, got some amazing drone cam footage

Idle and stalling
I'm running out of ideas, but the car ran well (no boost on break in) and idled really low and would lope/surge. I put 300 miles with no problem on the new motor, then I changed the turbo/manifold for a bigger one. It would fire up and idle super rich, but I could rev it up. I got my tuner to come p...

Turbo oil preassure
I recently purchased a gt3076r, just wated to make sure but I need an oil Restrictor. Only one I found was .035" for a -4 feed line. My oil pressure when fully warmed up is 12psi. But 3k is like 45psi, and so on. When cold it's 50 idle and 80 3k. I just don't want to starve the turbo when I'm a...

Re: Huffman's drift missile KAT (new motor)
My old z31 turbo has a ton of shaft play, which is weird considering it was rebuilt by Arizona tractor turbo less than two years ago. I used it to break the motor in, stayed out of boost... But, now it's time for the new turbo to go in, I remembered to take pics this time. My girl likes to help :) h...

Re: Huffman's drift missile KAT (new motor)
After the recent failure of the new motor, I've decided forged internals would be the best solution. I've squired all the parts, now I'm waiting on machine work, then it's assembly.

Thanks guys, I can't wait to tear it apart and see the damage.
Also I may just turn it up on the new motor... Kinda regret not doing it on the old motor.

Re: Huffman's drift missile KAT (new cage and hydro)
90*+ hot lapping at the track=250* water temp
Pop head gasket, keep going till it quits.
It's ok, I got another one.
