Ok guys, talk is cheap—like me!! I built my supercharged 6.2l setup from a wrecked 1 season Indmar marine engine for about $4500, including tune, plugs, and everything else. Runs like a champ! I’ll get excited when I see someone build something different and cool that runs. I’m all about an EV...
Yeah I’ve been following EV west for a long time. Cool idea if you can make it play nice with the rest of the rotating accessories, transmission, ECU, etc. Someone has done an f150 conversion commercially. Can’t remember who. Range was an issue, and ground clearance, but it was cool.
I do think that in these trucks, giving up any torque is a bad idea—they're trucks! So, the 6.2 is going to win there almost all of the time, and then with a blower you'll be making big fat torque even lower in the power band. You don't need 7,000 RPM in a truck, IMO. The only engine I could see...
Eibachs are a linear fixed rate, Geisers are progressive, like stock. I have had Eibach fixed rate springs on other vehicles, and I would expect them to be stiffer when going over moderate bumps, but how much I don't know. I like the ride of the Geisers on road. Less brake dive than stock ...
I run Geisers on low perch. Sits 1.5" higher than stock, so similar to mid-perch with stock springs. Much better feel on and off road. A friend had the Eibachs, which I believe are a fixed rate, not progressive like the Geisers. They were MUCH stiffer. Felt harsh to me.
Full Race Radiator over the weekend. When it's 110 outside, the temp won't get over about 200, and when it does, it quickly settles back to 190-195 with the stock thermostat. With the old radiator, I could get it into the low 220's on a 110 degree day. Recovery is excellent with this radiator. I...
