  1. A 11,000rpm Judd V8 hell yes, A holden Taxi not so much
  2. Yes, that nick name goes back many many years but both the same person. Glad i could be of help i enjoy helping those in need and no one else on here really knows me so its fun to find out those who take life too seriously. Still, loving this V12 build i hate main stream everything is a V8 ....zzzzzzzzz Cheers for the kind words mate
  3. Excellent work mate , i have the other leader board for most hated ! lol If you dont rattle cages no one knows your alive.
  4. Going into a rusty old E36 sedan and not far off running im paying a few good mates to finish off wiring etc as my business is growing at a rate i cant keep up so time is spent on that. Mine uses the stock 10x ITB's with stakes and no filters, as for the power ? It is what it is as when done is my tow vehicle for the other toy im building, no its not another BMW wasted time on the last one i built as certain people running a certain series seem to look after their own agendas rather than increase participants.
  5. For what its cost me to do the V10 i think the V12 would be much easier and cheaper, 40k doesnt go far and yet to turn key still the sound should be glorious as it will be for yours. Either way both are different and kinda over main stream V8 swaps....i feel a Indy Car motor could be interesting
  6. Been certed since day it was done, now retired and used as test rig gave up battling wits with geriatrics that ran a certain series that look after their mates. Have a few new toys in build and not BMW's
  7. People would disappointed if i didnt give them more reasons to cry about me lol
  8. Better get in quick to do one, im already in the process of helping to do 2x E30 V10's
  9. I etched primed and painted mine on the outside only, powder coat shouldnt come off but the heat they use when doing so i dont like same with mag wheels.
  10. Correct E85 does make easy power if you crank the comp ratio, theres min to gain on low comp ratios. Many of my customers use it and its high maintenance for pumps and fuel system, BP98 is great all rounder without the head aches. Applications i like to use it in are turbo and 11/1 + comp great way to keep EGT's down. BP98 & turbo even on the street i can still get away with 30psi and 9/1 , however ive found using E85 making your own is alot more reliable than from the pump i buy it in tins from the supplier for constant rating.
  11. Check the rocker covers are not made from mag, learnt that the hard way
  12. V12 is pretty easy for aftermarket ecu, the V10 not so much. V12 comp ratio is pretty low so you wont need E85, my V10 is 12/1 and im still running pump gas as in BP98
  13. Love what your doing it will run really well, dam site easier than the V10 as far as a ecu goes.
  14. Brent, ill pass on the exhaust, its not loud enough for mine lol
  15. I can fit a V10 easily into my E36 then your V12 isnt a issue. V10 is a bunch wider than the 12.
  16. Its a big engine plus hair dryer, Vanos is a pain in the butt and as has been outlined its a race car not 10km/hr car sitting in Aucklands peak hour traffic. Less to go wrong, as for lose of torque? Pretty dam sure the turbo will make up for that, keep up the good work Garett.
  17. Bunch of work & money thats all it takes I use to do this with my customers then found a cheaper motor that makes a bunch more power with little work its called a 2J ! Still pretty sure yours will go well look forward to see how long the drive line lives lol Always fun breaking stuff cause if your not, you need to try harder Post some vids when done mate looking forward to the end result should be epic !
  18. I would first put it on a flow bench, then see how the cam specs relate as not every drop in cam will give a result you expect or even go backwards. Doing porting is fine art however basic things can be done, polishing to mirror finish is a waste of time i rough the ports with 60/80 grit to create turbulence entering the chamber. Never touch the lower short radius on the floor of the port its the fastest way to kill flow, the exhaust power is the one that controls overall power and big isnt best. Port throat behind the valve head to valve dia i would aim for around .88 ratio, measure the valve head dia x that by .88 will give the throat size. Then try to get as much upper roof area to point directly onto the back of the intake valve and reverse for the exh port. Also taking the head to a pro works too
  19. lol the guy in the evo nice smoke trail i should get my pile of crap out and come play Brent
  20. 10 psi on pump gas that being 98, this is 100% stock apart from cams new motor waiting to go in when i have time. New motor is loaded with go fast bits
  21. Life is boring if its easy, very cool dry sump as a road car. Put a stone guard over the belt setup, love your work
  22. Glad i could pass my garage finds on to a worthy home
