Thread: Kelford 184-C on the Dyno - Progress so Far.

The reply from Kelford is that the base circle thing is no problem at all.

I will be contacting you via PM within 24 hours about some cam info and lets see if we can get it done.

The goal is

1. Stock base circles
2. I want an OEM set of SR20VE 20Vs cams to pull the low lobes off of.
3. High lobes will be coming to you via PM.

The 20V low lobes as proven will be able to pull up to 6500 RPMs and whatever goes on the top of them will pull nicely up to 8500-9000 RPMs on a 2.2-2.3L

The 184-C low lobe makes power right up there too, I'm switching the cams at 6,000rpm intake & 6,400rpm exhaust as they were originally set at 5,600 & 6,000 & there was a dip in the power... I could probably move the intake up another 200rpm as there's still a slight dip on change-over.

Oh... for you guys interested in Kelford's cams or any of their other services. I'm not Kevin Ban's special friend or anything, he will talk to anybody & offer his real-world advice on how to make your engine go hard. Kevin has a passion for high HP NA tuning & loves to see people succeed.

We may have co-operated on the new cam but that doesn't mean they give me any better service than they will give any of you. If you contact Kelford you will get awesome service, that's just what they're like.

Some pictures for you.

The old Burns collector modified secondaries:





The shortened Fujis:





And both cars, the white one has the VE & the Gunmetal one with the Impul kit is the Tomei SR22DE:

sweet. what does the tomei motor make ??

stratton.

yeah the gun metal grey car looks pretty tough

Hey clint what is the collector size on the burns vs Fuji?
Did you say the fuji collector setup worked better than the burns one?
I was going to use a 60mm choke point on my headers with a megaphone, Just interested in what your testing has turned up.

I don't know what the stroker would make now, when it came into the country, Joe & Penny (the first owners) chucked it on the dyno & got 114wkw or 152whp. The car had Impul everything including an Impul ECU & the tune was BS... try 10.1 AFRs in some places. They then changed the exhaust from the headers back (Impul of course), put a daugtherboard in & tuned it so she should make more but I've never dynoed it myself. Great car to drive, oodles of low down torque & even with the Impul ECU it still did a 14.66. I've since swapped out the 4.1 VLSD gearbox for an Autech 4.3 VLSD one.

Hey Nick, I hope your wedding & honeymoon was great! The Burns had 1.875" pipes into a 2.25" choke & then out to 3". The Fujis are something like 1.93" OD & their choke is just under 2.5 inches.

^^^ how many times have you considered throwing the ve head on the stoker bottom end? I dont know what pistons its running so have no idea of you valve clearances and what not, but if it was me i would defiantly have thought of it a few times
