We decided to put together a little build thread on a project that we have been working on. Hoping to get it finished up and do some track testing soon and possibly make it out to some west coast events this upcoming season.

The car is still work in process, with lots of little bugs still to get figured out. Everything from TPS problems, to injectors dying, fried coils, and everything else you would expect with a big project. But so far it has been quite the learning experience and once its done should be lots of fun.

Quick rundown of the setup:
F22A
97mm crank
89mm 14:1 CR Arias pistons
Aluminum rods
37mm IN valves 30mm EX valves
Custom Bisimoto cam and extended rockers
ASP re-worked skunk2 IM w/ Accufab 90mm TB
Older Bisimoto header
F2D kit w/ Liberty pro shift modded Y8 tranny
MFactory 4.9 FD

A few videos of it on the dyno (they look alot better if you select HQ)

Very nice and sounds great. Why a D tranny and not a B

 

you guys planning on running in superstock

 

I always liked the guys at Speedfactory. James is awesome. Hopefully they get a bigger dyno soon so they can tune my car.

 

No, just sticking to battle and test and tunes for now until the kinks get worked out

Got a really good deal on the D-tranny with the Liberty modification and the adapter plate.

 

what did it put down?

 

LSD or spool?

 

You can say that again, Joel! We have had almost every possible thing that could go haywire happen on this car, and been pulling our hair out chasing down gremlins - half the issues were intermittent problems which made them extremely difficult to track down. This build has definitely taken the cake on trying ones patience! I've never seen another car have this many issues all at once, ever.

TPS issues, bad injectors, dead fuel pumps, bad alternators, dead coils, coolant circulation issues, failing MAP sensors, cam gears coming loose, tranny and clutch issues, things vibrating loose, etc. Definitely a learning experience, but we've finally got all of the little issues figured out, so things are looking up.



Thanks! Yeah, it kinda sucks having to take the big power cars to another dyno to finish out the high boost portions of the tune, so we are looking into getting 2 of the larger pods.

It's currently making 282whp/192tq. Last year at Woodburn there were so many things wrong/broken on the car we are amazed it even made it down the track! We have most of the major problems figured out now, just needs more time to dial it in/test mods, as it should be making better power than it is. It'll definitely do much better this year though for sure.

 

bump for a great setup! good luck finally gettin all the **** bs problems out of the way. i hope this thing works out well. Show everyone why h2d is made!!!

 

Cant wait to see what it does this year Matt... I love the F powered car for sure..

 

Thats definitely sick, props for going down the road less travelled !

 

Looks good!

 

looks good guys, best of luck in the 09 season. Was cool to see something different.

 

more pics.... interior.. ne thing??

 

awesome work guys! see you at Boti again

 

Looks great. We need some Kinsler ITBs on that monster!!

 

Thanks for all the props everyone! This is my motor setup in my friend's car, just so people dont get confused. It is definitely a work in progress, as we will be doing a lot more testing in the near future before the start of the season.Something is holding it back, I just can't figure it out yet. I was only 18 or 19 when I assembled this engine lol!

Thanks Bisi! Yes we do, but you know my budget is limited haha. Thank you for all of your help you have given us! I will call you soon, I have some new data for you that we need to discuss.

 

Good stuff , keep up the good work...........
