Two questions from a bloke with a blown 6L as yours sounds perfect...
1) Exactly how bad is it on fuel? In traffic, how horrible is it?
2) What kind of dollars (ballpark) is it to build an engine like this?
I am thinking if you need to ask 1) and 2) above you cannot afford it !!!Quote:

Wow, that's a rather short minded answer... But I assume you were being sarcastic.
Not that I cannot afford it but looking at my blown setup but the time you do exhaust etc there isn't much change out of 20k, a few years ago. So yes I can afford it but seeing as I do 100+km a day, was interested to see what its like fuel wise...
1. around town fuel wise it wouldn't be any worse than some lead footed young blokes in "normal Ve's but hey its not a camry :)Quote:

1b in traffic, only one mate has been able to control it :) very hard to control the surging
2. motor owes me around 28K (prob more)
If you want clean smooth power go for boost
If you want old school cammed grunt go N/A
Oh and wat r u doing in QLD JK?

And it is FOR SALE
(time for a AMG)
Very tough NA engine. Did u start with a bare ls7 block or did u strip down a stock engine?
Transferred with work in January last year....Quote:
