Word of mouth is the most powerful tool for businesses. If everyone comes out of his shop and starts to recommend him, then he must be doing something right, no?

And what about those that dont recommend him coming out of his workshop? I had two PMs about it? 'everyone' ... lol

Sorry I knew I shouldnt have said everyone. I forget that I'm speaking publicly sometimes.

None the less, the only way to find out is to try for yourself.

I think we're all grown ups here, make your own decision and don't get all emotional if a workshops name gets dropped in a conversation. It's their decision isn't it? Not yours.

Besides if you were to substitute unigroup with workshop that you like, then I'm sure you'll be backing them up. And someone will come out and say "nah x workshop is better".

This is basically politics. Pointless to discuss.

I wanted full boost before 4k and was going to get cam gears but was assured i wouldnt need em.. and he did pull it off.. 25psi by 4k is pretty awesome..

They would have tried around 20psi... Id say it would have been around 310kw.. will check tomorrow

25psi at 4k is pretty impressive. I dont think i've seen anyone here hit that level of boost at 4k, normally would be 20-22psi and that would be with adj cam gears.

I personally was able to get about 18psi at 4k (stock gears) but that was with no boost source to the actuators(8.8psi) and they had a reasonable amount of preload on them so i doubt they were being pushed open.

Have a boost plot against rpm?

Not sure now.

I bought my 5 speed with big input shaft for $2,760 delivered from greenline 4 years ago. You will need all the Series 3 internals to run it.

Make sure you buy the billet centre plate from OS.

That is pritty cheap. I wish they didnt come with such tall ratios

They can either work for or against you. At Huntley it really works. You just need a bigger engine to turn the cogs. *hint hint, nudge nudge* ;)

    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • 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.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • 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.
