Actually INTENSES heads will work. You gotta make a custom Intake anyways.J Wikoff wrote:Intense's heads won't work for a Series I.
Yeah, the tranny would break after a little while. Maybe $1500-2500 for a rebuild that will last. That doesn't include a beefed up differential.
I am looking to swap the SII L67 heads with the injector bosses in the heads (this means that yes, you can put a L67 supercharged top end onto a SI block-with the L67 intake- SI guys can say goodbye to the M62.....HELLO M90!) with a modified factory fuel rail. Along with the L36 NA lower intake manifold (with spacers…) with it’s 6 injector bosses and modified factory fuel rails, so that we can run 12 30lb hr injectors at 50 psi with a boost referenced pressure regulator (Quad 4 injectors-free from J yards….) with the Mega Squirt DIY EFI system controlling them with custom fuel tables for the Mitsubishi TD06-17c-8cm^2 Turbocharger from a 4.3L Cyclone/Typhoon, this Turbocharger is capable of enough flow to support 400Hp which would require ~ 60 lb hr injector per cylinder, it’s much cheaper for us to use two 30 lb hr injectors. The L36 NA lower intake would receive bell mouthing of the intake runners, and we would Fabricate a sheet metal aluminum Upper intake plenum that would have a N* or LS1 TB located on the belt drive side of the engine to allow for better plumbing of the Turbocharger to Intercooler to TB ductwork without any flow robbing bends. There is no big deal with this as our rear engine has crank, WP, alt, and tensioner only and wouldn’t interfere with the TB. Mega Squirt EFI will work with MAF or MAP based EFI setups but I think we will go with a 3 bar MAP sensor and use speed density tables and forgo the LS1 MAF etc and its associated cost, though it’s not out of the question. The SII exhaust manifolds will be used with the rear manifolds normal outlet removed and the crossover pipe that is (now) too short will be cut in half to facilitate the fabrication of the Turbocharger mount/flange.
Besides the benefits of factory SII parts on the SI block you can then use the aftermarket SII performance parts, an IC under a L67 supercharger etc you name it…the possibilities would be endless, at least it’s possible.
Why the hell am I doing this instead of swapping in an L67:
Lowbuck Redneck Modern Hotrodding! We is Rednecks, we is cheap!
I said $1000 for fuel PUMPS. If you realistically had a twin charged V6 (even on a 4.2L stroker kit) you'd need serious fueling for 500hp. You would need two walbro 255's to keep fuel pressure usable at WOT. As high strung as this theoretical engine build is, you cannot get away with stock ANYTHING in the fuel system, one hiccup = dead motor.dirtracr95 wrote:Wow now you guys are really trying to scare him off. You dont need megasquirt or MSD.
I wanna know who has paid $1,000 for a fuel pump? SERIOUSLY You could go fuel cell, AN fuel lines, custom fuel rail, and injectors for $1000 maybe a tad more depending on where you get things.
Series 2 first. You're listing parts that are only readily available for a Series 2.Sadden wrote:Mmmmmk then. So two superchargers are a no go. What about cam smaller sc puley and a intercooler as that seems to be the general reccomendation? would it be safe to use a turbo from pick-a-part centre? And would you reccomend doing a Turbo and a sc?

.There's so much potential in turbocharging a 3800, but so many things you have to know what you're doing, or you'll blow it up.
