has anyone considered sleeving the blocks to run more boost using maybe darton sleeves?
It is probably possible but that would require a few shops to work together with Darton so not just one person has to deal with the R&D, but you can bet that will never happen LOL!

It's on its way back down to Todd next week for different head bolts and final tuning.

When complete, I'm confident it will make more power than my car and will be faster than my car as well.
Yes, I have inquired about this with my car as well... as of yet no response!

The only people that care about your 60-130 times are the people on this forum. Screw relying on dyno numbers. That's for dyno queens. Show us what that thing can do with a verifiable graph.

With recent TV appearances and more to come it would be, in my opinion, Protomotive's interest to fly to Cali for some retuning.... From what I hear, Alex got called out for a TV shootout rematch by Henessey after Alex won the shootout recently...
aside from the fact that he is homeless and poor.. everything he told me recently has happened... from the two tv appearances to upcoiming showing.... so i would not discount the idea that Todd will not fly out to be a part of a TV show...
time will tell..

Hi... When have the stock sleeves bin a problem? Or when have the ARP head studs bin a problem? Tim

Hi...Mr. ludden, I have built many 996TT motors and for the life of me can not understand how it is possible to weld the heads on the sleeves and then weld the jugs onto the head (keep to water in its ports) and aline all three sleeves. Furthermore how do you stop the water from entering the block because you melted the o-rings(on the sleeve) with all the heat needed to weld aluminum? In any case Eddie runs stock sized ARP studs and still runs the stock o-ring for the heads with 30 psi of boost. I run ARP head studs stock size with my last dyno at 26psi (run out of injectors).

add another $5000 obo for the 3.8l kit.

wait till Mark finishes his clutch it was slipping when he got his 9 S so this time if he goes to the strip and his clutch hold, he will be in mid 9 S for sure and we will see a new record .

Wow! His car is crazy! Have you seen him pull the front wheels off the ground when he launched the car for the 9second run???

Do you guys not see issues with head sealing at 26 and 30 psi? What are you doing differently to everybody else? Thanks.

Hi......I do not know how other engine builders build their motors. But I do know how I build a motor. Also some customers want a built motor at evo/sti prices.....and think they will break the 9 second range with 800+ awhp. So I do not think it is the builder but the customer thinking he got the best deal on a "built motor" You do get what you pay for, Isn't that why you bought a Porsche? Here to assist, Tim
