oh.. me disappointed.. here i was thinking you were doing an s54 swap.

s52 with obd1 conversion? stock cams?

[nmlss2006]

Sorry! I do know where to get the pieces, but from what I saw from Rob Levinson's car... it's a bloodbath.
And yes, OBD1 S52... perhaps some of the usual shricks (262/258) if I can find them. 3.5 intake path, turner shorty headers on the exhaust. I have to decide what to do with the brakes.

Yes, that way I can still be slow in a faster car! How awesome is that? :) Perhaps I should listen to the HPDE instructors who ask me why I seem to understand what's going on very well but I'm simply not willing to push it..

And you mister. Once you see what we have waiting for you at the shop you'll be glad we didnt go to the track.

[nmlss2006]

Uh... again?

[kishg]

Uh... again?

yup. grenaded it this time.. not just rockers, this one was srs bzns.. but i was quite happy with the weekend overall. ran 1.24s in a borrowed spec e30 class car taking it easy so that's only 2s off the race pace. not that i was timing or anything ;)

Of course you weren't! I have to say I'm a little concerned though: too many cars are blowing up engines much more frequently than I'd like. If it's going to cost me $3500 every weekend, I'll buy a GT3 RS and SAVE MONEY..

Those of us who have been tracking E30's since they were new learned our lesson many, many years ago. You don't rev a stock M20 past 5500-6000 rpm on the track. The minute you push past the 6K rpm mark, you'll start to snap rocker arms like potato chips.

Keep it below 6K rpm and the rockers will never break.
