I couldn't photoshop if my life depended on it.. but heres mrmikes car with those wheels in a chrome color.. kinda sparks an idea of what those black ones would look like on the black alero..

I bet it'd look sweet.

say it ain't so!!! what is the wheel weight difference? I know you are a weight weeny.....

[mfuller]

No worries......the Kosei's are staying with me.....but I think I will need drag radials.

The ASA's will only be for the street; they're about 6lbs. heavier per wheel. The aluminum front lower control arms help to balance it out.

[kwhauck]

drag radials, you having problems hooking up lately?

Yes....last time at the track, 60' times between 2.6 and 2.8. Trapping nearly 92mph though. Hoping to run 13's and trap above 95 next year.

[kwhauck]

nice.....what are the specs on your cam and you got some head work done too didn't you?

216/224 @ .050", .517.538 valve lift, 112 LSA on the cam.
Heads are WOT-Tech street/strip port with Comp springs/retainers/locks, SI stainless valves, cc's reshaped and matched and flow-match on the ports, decked .020". Heads are basically blueprinted.

sounds good, are those valves a bigger diameter than stockers? what springs did you go with? stock ratio rocker arms?

BTW those wheels, at least in the photoshop look real good on your car....

[YALEROYNOT]

I like the wheels on your car

what side skirts do you have ?

[bizarre179]

They look like razzi skirts.

[Silentalero]

this means matt is now gonna go on a 24lb diet :lol:

gotta make up that difference somehow

Stock diameter on the valves; I can't afford custom valves.
Comp 26986 springs and stock 1.6:1 (OEM) rockers. Until the full rollers come out.

[kwhauck]

Yeah, i will probably end up using stock diameter valves as well, with those springs, the rollers really are exciting though, I am kind of nervous though because even the 1.7s will put me over .600 lift:scpimp:

Do you guys have a guess what the price of these will end up at? I would love to know projected gains off of higher ratio's. Matt you didn't go with the 1393 cam did you? Those specs are different from mine. What changed your mind?

Edit: Now I see, you went with the 1280 grind. How much low end did you lose? I was looking at that one but I feel that my car is weak enough on the bottom already.

I think the rockers will probably be comparable in price to a cam, so say maybe $350 or thereabouts.

I went with the 1280 since my heads will flow like the bejesus up top, plus I have 3.42 gears going into my trans to compensate for the low-end loss.
Ben is still working on the heads, an I had him hang onto the cam and everything else until he's completely finished. Hope to have everything installed before next spring.

[alerored04]

Cool, now I just need to talk to ben and see what he thinks will work best for me.
