What are you building?

Looks eerily like a mid seventies Vega.

[craigztoyz]

looks stout.

Cant wait to see more,

The torque, thats not hard to get, when tuned well, and with a lil computer help, more is there.

[midnightsliding]

yeah i have low standards but i will always take more if its their lol.

[craigztoyz]

The important part is how much torque there is so low in the power band. From what I understand its like 200 @ idle, which would surprise me from driving it, but I will wait for my Dyno sheet to tell the tale.

[midnightsliding]

yea im looking for more mid to top end Tq. i would like to design some headers to make more power up around 7400 rpm.

Here's a link to my "project" thread:

I already have a Vh with a tweaked rod and a running Q45 with a 10,000 mile engine in it. The tweaked rod motor with be Built (not REbuilt). Suspension and body all being brought up to snuff this winter.

[craigztoyz]

sweet start.

I too am having to build my first VH, but it is just getting bearings, and rings, as the engine is still running great. Its on its way into a customers 02 Z.

This motor is amazing, 6 months after I started driving it daily, still beats c5 vetts, and is a joy to drive. Working on a few other VH projects, but busy making a Fullsize Blazer into a FWD truck with a few inches ride height.

Anyone need good info on the Vh, get in touch with me. Craig

I'm also building an s30 vh45de, it kills me being 300 miles away from my project at school most of the year. Anyways... what I have so far.

and almost ready to pull out...

With any luck, i'll have a running vh45de swap in my z31. Seen a few z32's and s30's with vh's in them already, but no z31's! My car was neglected very badly by the previous owner from what I can tell. The first oil change I did to the car, I drained absolute sludge out of the oil pan, and have had low oil pressure across the board. Along with that, the engine has had one of the infamous z31 injector fires at some point in its life. So my idea of a turbo swap onto that motor are fading rather quickly. Luckily the rest of the car is in decent shape, and should be a good shell for a VH to go into. With any luck, i'll find a good running motor.

^ Sounds like a good project! Do you still have the S14?

[Bronze MFP]

no, the s14 was sold a few years ago I'd like to pick up another one eventually, but the z needs more powah!
