    Your money mate, your car. You do with it as you like. As you said. Its not getting scrapped. Someone can put an LS and box back in and its back on the road

    Jay, legendary move brother! I watched Ash's video of that PP rotar on the street just loving the 8 speed!
    Literally who in their sain mind would run a 2 speed power glide even if it's mostly for the drag strip? There are some people out there that have "strip" built cars that they occasionally street drive......but it just seems inhibitory in nature? It doesn't give anyone a taste of your cars flavour unless you give it the full beans.....when you've only got 2 gears. It doesn't quite give us the eargasmic sounds when there's only 2 gears.
    Honestly the 8 speed has the goods too keep you always in the power band and it all comes down to those magical final ratio to suit your motor and power combination, car weight and purpose?
    Plug in those variables into the various known combinations available along with your personally preferences; I'm pretty sure you'll be able to come up with the perfect final ratio 👌

    Love the pops on the gear changes at 4:56, is that from a tune or to do with the 8sp?

  • @RussellBooth1977
    @RussellBooth1977 Před měsícem

    If I had the,$$$'s I would keep the car relatively stock with over 400 fwhp from an exhaust system upgrade & tune plus fit a manual transmission into it.
    Or I could be a bit more adventurous & get 600 fwhp from just a big cam upgrade for the LS2 V8 engine & tune.
    The LS1 V8 engine in my VY is making a bit over 400 fwhp from the stock engine albeit with mandrel bent Genie 1 5/8" Tri Y headers,200 cell per inch high flow cats & a Redback twin 2.5" high flow cat back exhaust system & a tune.
    It was putting out 370 fwhp with custom "crushed" (press bent) "1 5/8 inch " (more like 1 1/2 inch) primaries, stock 400 cell per inch 2.5 inch catalytic converters,a custom twin 2.25" exhaust system which means it put out as much power as the stock LS2 V8 engine in the VE Commodore.
    So with a slight tweak on the dyno in 2019 by an old school friend & without my knowledge they tuned it after I upgraded the exhaust system,now it puts out as much power or more than the 6.2 litre V8 in the VF SS Commodore & it's a stock 5.7 litre V8 engine.
    These engines are severely choked at the factory, some people wonder why my VY SS Commodore goes better than their VE SS Commodore !

    Im pretty sure i know the reason he "sold" you the car given how it was shown, and i get it, i dont realy like a look of the ve but that was an amzingly put together car that will keep many more cars going, wich i can understand as i just sold my 80 series to be a parts car, but i know she will live on in other cars. Love ya work jay 🤘🤠👍

    Haha its all bmw stuff…
    I thought you didn’t do bmw..
    Their crazy boxes hey, and like you know, the cut out clutch pedal too. Its just getting them to bolt to certain things..
    Then the separate brain and software to make the bloody thing work.. gets expensive…
    Which means you should probably keep the LS for a rainy day too…
    That thing turboed…
    Anyways look forward to seeing what the 8hp goes in!!
    Keep it lit, keep it low!
    Loving all the builds..
    I do see the rx3 12a cpe sitting there too… (im ex rota)
    100k for a car im going to skid.. nope!..
