Yes, the I went with a Lewis Engine's built RB22 because I wanted a fresh motor . . . I didn't want someone else's handy-me-down RB25 with a 100k on the clock
And yes, I know that I will not end up with the power gain compared to a R25 conversion, but compared to what the car was doing stock, the gain will be considerable - hopefully 240 rwkw at 18psi.
The car is going to be at the Love of Cars Real Street Blv at this year's MotorEx on the Saturday 23 July. http://www.motorex.com.au/features/realstblvd
If you want to check it out, I will have dyno figures by then.
