vh41de? theres another one like that over here in wa. dont think its that one tho. and several R31's are getting around with them now. still, no ones got the vh41de to a really high power like they have with rb's, that said, no ones really tried.

btw, i know its an old thread but still a nice one.

"4100 TWIN CAM 32VALVE V8"

yup...

and several R31's are getting around with them now.

i havent seen a single one?

there is one BEING built in NZ, but thats a fair ways off.

i know there's an R33 running around with one, possibly supercharged?

still, no ones got the vh41de to a really high power like they have with rb's, that said, no ones really tried.

dare i say they'd be capable of a lot more than the humble RB.

its a lot newer, engineered better than the RB's.

sorry for the bump. :P

cool thread none the less, any updates?

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.

      Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
