Man...I was bored here at work and Rx7cms and I are gonna hopefully be building a bracket racer 1st gen shortly all motor so I got to looking at stuff online and I came up w/ the ultimate(in my mind) 13B NA setup:



RB aluminum housings w/ Peripheal port = $5500 for the set.

Carbon 3mm race apex seals = $33 each

Lightweight racing rotors = $1200 each

Fully balance w/ proper counterweights,etc = $500

Racing stationary gears and bearings = $400

dellortor sidedraft and BIGASS carb https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

All for around $9K in the motor alone that would push 310RWHP @ 9KRPM



THAT would be awesome..the best part about that motor is that w/ the AL components, I'd save 57lbs in weight from the block alone, and w/ a 1st gen stripped...it'd probably only weigh like 1800 w/ driver! 11s would so be possibly w/ a strong driveline and slicks!

I dig the RB aluminum housings, but man the price is out there.

Yea...1200 for the front & rear and 1550 for the intermediates...but damn man..you know its worth it! PP and AL https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif

That would work too.275rwhp NAJust remember to use S5 T2 housings.They are way better for all motor than NA ones.

1Revvin7 01-30-2003 08:28 PM

Damn thats a big tag for 310rwhp. Would be fun though :bigok: Sooo many toyz, not enough $$$.

You can get a 48 ida carb ported to 62 mm, that would be my choice of induction.

How reliable, or lack of reliability would a 310hp N/A be. Would it be as reliable as a 13b with turbo putting out the same horse?

basically the 310-320hp na's are what they ran in the gto class starting in 83, you could prolly get 48hours at full throttle out of it

Rotaryman88 01-31-2003 11:04 AM

Yea...don't look at having a 310HP NA motor lasting much past 35K miles of mild driving,lol...



a 310HP turbo would be more reliable...

j9fd3s 01-31-2003 11:30 AM

i think thats right, the turbo would last more miles on the street but the na would last longer racing.
