2V Saleen winter project

[Saleen405]

What's up guys? I'm doing a little winter project and figured I would post some pics. The car is a 2000 Saleen with a built motor, KB 2.2 and other supporting mods. Over the winter, 03Cobrra and myself are throwing on a set of ported heads and cams. We started about 2 weeks ago but the weather in NY hasnt been the best to be working in a garage, but here are some pics of the progress so far.

I'll post up more pics as we continue...

Thanks man, the motor should be coming apart this week so I can send the pistons out to MMR and have them notched.

That red is soooooo sick

:rockon:

Why are you getting the pistons notched? If you are sticking with the mph kb grinds that you said in your thread in the pics section then you wont need notches

 

[Saleen405]

What are the specs on your cam? 115@50 with a .550 lift is mine. I called MMR and gave them those specs and they said it would have to be notched.

 

[froush]

Mine arent notched. Only spec mr norms told me was that it does have a 115 lsa. Id email them and find out. I just installed mine and ran it around the block a couple times to make sure i installed them correctly before i worked on the blower. I had zero ptv issues

 

[froush]

Also, are there any id marks on your cams? Mine had some but i couldnt identify them anywhere on the internets

 

[Saleen405]

Yea there are ID marks on the cams
102-BG1-9L. US7198-06

102-BG2-9R. US7199-06

 

[froush]

You sure those are mph kb cams. Mine have different numbers

 

[Saleen405]

Yup, I called up Tim Barth and he said those were the ones. What numbers are on yours?

 

[froush]

659268/9268
HR1105
F9803-05
CC

This is on both

 

[froush]

Maybe ill have to give him a call.

 

[froush]

I do know that mph closed and tim went to mr norms. Maybe that has something to do with it. According to the s/n on mine i found out that its a custom grind from comp cams with a 115 lsa, .550/.550" lift, and a 234/234 duration.

 

[Saleen405]

My brother in law got them when Tim was at MPH...maybe they changed their numbering of the cams when he went to Mr. Norms. I might call him on Monday and give him both sets of numbers and see if they are the same cams.

Do you have a T56? and what is your fuel setup?

Nice build!

 

[Saleen405]

Yea I have a T56. And it has 2 GT pumps and 60# injectors with stock rails.

 

[SCalla1384]

Car looks nasty man, I love the redfire saleens.

What power did it make with the setup before heads/cams? Any videos of the car?

 

[thgach]

Lookin sweet bro...nice job

 

[Saleen405]

I haven't had the car on the dyno since I've had it, but when my brother-in-law had it, I think it made 480ish wheel. These are the only vids I have of the car:

I took this one the day we started to take it apart
