Hmm, just looked up an earlier thread and seen when my 89 VE was on the shelf, I got the number off it and it's a 103 pump. What's that make us have, 103, 114, 205's?
Some R&D for ya's
:-laf : Way back when, I had a 93 205 VE on my 89 non-intercooled engine. I had a 14mm pump built and used my original 89 nonIC'd 103 VE for the build. At the time, it didn't seem like a HUGE increase. This could've been in my head, the fact that I still only had a hx35, timing, or the fact that the new 14mm pump wasn't turned up much and the 205 pump was hot... Oh and for quite some time after the install of the non-intercooled 103 VE, I was confused about the workings of it's KSB, so I left it unplugged. Hence the added strain of running around with an extra 7* of timing. Hmm no wonder the bottom end was gone
. This still makes me wonder what the best combination of pump parts, numbers, models, heads, etc etc are to use for big HP.
I suppose I could do some of my own R&D
, have a 205 pump built up with a 14mm head, or swap my pumps and dyno again with the big injectors, turbo and 12mm 205 VE on the 89. Course this would mean two pump R&R jobs, time, couple new mounting gaskets, oh and I'd have to wait for Dunbar to come back up this way in the spring, as I don't want to drive 100 miles to gain 100hp on a different dyno
, one that I've never dynoed on etc... Hmm. . nah. I'll just step down from the big HP race. Who's gonna step up now?
Actually I was thinking the other day, if KTA's truck is down for upgrades, or he's building a new engine (which would mean no HP), Stomp only has a 12mm pump and hasn't dynoed or(which would mean low HP)??? Does that make me '1st gen High HP top dog', since my truck is still on the road and ?? Oo. Wow, this thread went a few directions didn't it. .
