What are you think size size wise? What about new butterfly's so the port isn't a waste?

1slow370 · 01-16-2014, 09:17 PM

butterflys are easy the hard part is going to be the new axle required for the larger butterfly. the butterfly slot is a bitch to cut i'm sure he has the equipment tho. One hint tho the butterfly blade is harder than you first think but easy once you figure it out.

Edit: Never underestimate a good machinist especially if they have past production and job shop experience we can do anything given enough time and the right price.

yep. Clean shop. the slots a bitch cus it's square ended goes through a 3/8ish axle has to be dead nuts true, parallel and centered on that axle oh and they are usually just a hair over .062 wide. They stock shafts are usually pretty worn so it is best not to modify/reuse them. I've seen your equipment so i know you have the stuff to do it and i'm sure you'll be fine. There are a couple other surprises in the vhr throttles but I can't give the whole game away. Also the factory manifold can't be opened up much so there are only minimal gains anyway.

You wouldn't need a new axle. You just need a large diameter plate. Take the plate off, pull out the axle, do your business, reinstall axle with larger plate, done.

I have a waterjet on the way and edm work is just a rock toss down the road. ill know more once i have one in my hands.

1slow370 · 01-16-2014, 09:42 PM

larger diameter plate = wider slot in the axle

SlowZ · 01-17-2014, 02:49 PM

How would the gains look with Stillen g3's, an m370 or Z1's intake manifold, along with the ported tb's

Dirtkawracer · 01-21-2014, 11:28 PM

Interested to see where this goes

Who wants to start a round Robbin buy program kind of thing?

It'd work by me for example buying off eBay or somewhere the cheapest throttle bodies and manifold I can find. I'll send it to get ported. Then I'll take my OEM stuff off and install the new ported parts. Then you buy off me what I paid for the TB's and mani. You then send mine in to be ported and it just keeps going. Many of us use these cars for DD so no one will have a down car and you'll get your money right back from the next guy.

Anyone?

Or if someone knows someone that bought a motordyne that'd like to donate a mani that'd be great.

^I sent TBs.
I can send a 370Z manifold too
