Here's my dyno sheet from the PGA dyno day. The engine has not even looked like suffering detonation running as lean as lambda 0.86-0.88. Also take note that my peak torque figure is down on yours, Lee. Boost comes on earlier and hits harder than mine so I'm guessing that's the main factor.

Hey Matt,

Cheers for posting your sheet up as i was interested in seeing what difference our tunes would show up on the dyno. Apparently you can run as lean as .90 before you start losing torque with E85 which goes to show how forgiving the fuel really is. Does your Microtech run the VCT?

Not too sure if GWW is reading correct or not but would have definately been interested to see Adrians car on there. Wait til next DD i guess.

I read your post on GT's thread and got me thinking i should maybe ring Enffue to see if they can shed any light on the matter. Long story short the Manager was nice enough to return my call stating they have over 1000 ltrs at the moment and are expecting another delivery next week. As to the future of E85 at their station he said he was under the impression that they will continue supplying the fuel. Next few weeks will tell the story i guess with the receivership, cant say i'm overly enthused on paying $2 plus for a litre.

Hey Lee,

No prob's mate. Good old E85 :woot: Yep, NVCS is still operational. Built bottom end with low comp' is part of the reason for the difference in response between our set-ups.

I've seen reports from people that have used both dyno's that show one and then the other reads higher/lower. I know on one thing for sure, a dyno figure is just a number. Yeah be good to see how Adrian's car goes on the GWW dyno now.

From your latest info' on the Mawson Lakes ENFFUE station it sounds a little more promising that it first appeared. Fingers crossed the news continues to improve.

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation. It just states that I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs.
