    Roadster Inlet camshaft Retard for more high RPM power

    The one tooth cam retard actually is 9.5 cam degrees which would be 19 degrees crankshaft. So -7 and 47. Sorry I was not clear in my description. I flowed my heads and entered parameters and all the engine specs into an engine program called Dyno 2000. The program uses hundreds of motor...

    Roadster Inlet camshaft Retard for more high RPM power

    The 9.5 degrees are camshaft degrees or 19 degrees crankshaft. This would mean -10 TDC intake opening and 47 degrees after BDC. Very little overlap but lots of late closing moving HP and torque about 800 rom higher? Engine peak on dyno is now 159 at a mere 5250 with torque at 170. Custom...

    Roadster Inlet camshaft Retard for more high RPM power

    Question for the people who have tried. Claviger Lush Warp etc. Anyone tried skipping one tooth( 9.5degrees) retard on the inlet cam only on a Roadster? Theory says peak HP and torque figures could occur about 400 rpm higher in the rev range with only 2 to three HP losses in the 2000 to 4000...

    Battery replacement

    Owned my 2010 Roadster for seven years now. Researched a battery that was not only 270 or 310 like the present offerings because lets face it. You can change ground wires starter motors and the beasts will still fail to start in colder weather. I found a lithium battery that fits perfectly...

    2.5L Rocket Stroker Engine Kit with 6 Speed Transmission (R&D)

    the stuff dreams are made out of. Thoughts: I hope the balancing calculations were accurate so extra vibration non existent The standard injectors and heads are probably getting marginal if you plan to use the high rpm capabilities. Probably boring the injectors as Claviger did for added top end...

    2.5L Rocket Stroker Engine Kit with 6 Speed Transmission (R&D)

    I too have been looking into spare engine blocks and a displacement increase After examing components and speaking to knowledgeable engine builders these are my thoughts; The cheapest way to get more torque/power is increase volumetric efficiency fooling the engine into behaving larger than it...
