I am supporting Callaway....

[SurfnSun]

Well my turbos are on their way to Callaway. Mike Norris called me yesterday and told me he had them off the car. He was looking for a trustworthy box and then was shipping them up. $5k worth of insurance plus shipping ran me $100.

Now I need to sell a kidney so I can have my base manifold extruded and we can get this beast back together.

Anyone want to take a stab at the power its gonna lay down?

Wonderbar upgrade
No cats
ASM LTRs
Ported plenum
Edelbrock Hi Flo base-(maybe extrude honed maybe not)
AFPR set at 50psi WOT
POWER EFFECTS exhaust!!!

How much more Torq can these L98 engine internals take before they go kaboom?
Are the rods the weak link?

 

[SurfnSun]

These arent stock internals. All forged. The rods only get weak from detonation. Zabaz put down 840rwtq and had no problems.

Yes, I know it's not stock internals. My question does not read like that though.
I had read a post or heard some one mention the rods are upgraded but are not the best. Any truth to that?

The rods used when they were built were Gm pink rods. Some cars had other rods put in when they were rebuilt or upgraded.
