| ENGINE | 1986 SVO block Bored 20 over and fitted with TRW forged aluminum pistons, total seal gapless rings, tri-metal bearings, ARP rod bolts on stock polished and balanced crank and rods, and the block is O-ringed. Major head work (see photo) FMS roller cam, big esslinger roller valves, and double springs. The entire head has been ported/polished/handblended/gutted/smoothed and striaghtened, and Esslinger did the current cam setup.

Lower intake ported and polished and matched to the head.
Upper intake is gutted and rotated to face foward with stock throttle body. Porsche 930
Intercooler mounted behind radiator and perpendicular to radiator (parallel to road) with
a scoop under the front bumper to catch lots of cold air. Porsche 930 bypass valve.
|
| TURBO SIDE |
86 exhaust manifold slightly ported. Turbonetics T-04 with
the large compressor (housing number is 20192) I'm not sure but it might be a "Super
H-3 Hi-Fi" compressor wheel, not sure what turbine housing size is but it has a
lovely heat shield. Cockpit controlled deltagate mark-4 external wastegate. See photo of
turbo setup. EGT sensor to keep me honest. I normally run 16 psi of boost but when it
counts 19 pounds on pump gas...I plan on running 22-24 psi with race fuel in the very near
future.
