yes, RPG gen 3 built short block with gen 2 cams/heads. Yah i was at 800 wheel on 14lbs with my gen 2 short block. now with 12:1 CR im sure its making more, gonna dyno it in the next 2 weeks or so. just wanted to see if anyone is running similar setup
if your boosted you get longer gears (3.31) if your NA get shorter gears (3.73 and 4.10). the shorter the gear the quicker your RPMs climb. get a whole pumpkin if possible, easier install
Yah definitely addicting :D. I was at 600 and it was ok, I got a fuel system and E85 and went to 800. But wasn’t enough so got a built gen 3 built/forged short block and hoping to make 1000 haha. But 700 wheel daily is fun but you’ll need the proper tires for that haha
Yah for boost the longer the gear the better cuz your in boost more time with a longer gear. 3.55 should be ok with a 2.97. How much power you gonna be making?
MT-82 is a good transmission, I’m boosted and always wanted the magnum XL so once I blew a gear (knowing I would) haha I swapped out. Even boosted they hold up. RXT is an aggressive clutch and what caused it to blow. And you can send your MT-82 to Ben calimer if needed
get the magnum xl, i blew my third gear and did the swap. cost about 7k for everything., its splined differently so you'll need a new driveshaft. i go around 80-85 in 2nd gear, 130+ in 3rd gear. this transmission is stout
