Race Engine Idle

In B-Spec trim it puts down around 102hp to the wheels, this is HP trim though so I should be making a good deal more than that, but I don't know what it puts down just yet.

OK. I guess I should have know it wasn't B-Spec anymore. I'm no expert on B-Spec rules but

the biggest cams the cam grinder was able to make

seems a bit much for a stock-ish class .

Really awesome!! Like Corey asked, what's the new redline on that baby?

I'm hoping for a new redline of about 8200 rpm, but I'm not sure if my valve springs are up to it. Shortblock is built to handle 9k but the VVT actuator doesn't like the valve springs I bought so I'm currently running stock springs with TI retainers.

I did 7850rpm at Mid-Ohio on stock springs, rods and pistons. But I wont push that engine that hard the rest of the year. Also going back to stock springs for my other motor, and will cut back from the 9000rpm we tuned for at Daytona. 8000rpm is probably safe, and there is probably not any power up there anyway.

The Ti retainers weigh a little less than steel retainers, should be good for a few hundred RPM but I won't know till its dynoed. Still have lots of little things to fix before I get there.
