You don't street a 1200hp car with a 290 cam haha. He'll break the motor mounts just idling.

maybe it would be easyer to get the thing to run if you could shut down a set of squirters, i don't think 120 pounders were designed with street use in mind
all america wants is cold beer warm cat and a place to take a poop with a door on it

Winfred - that motor was built by VS Motorsport with the help of a fellow named Andreas from Sweden. The motor exploded after about 12 runs. They were $50,000 into the build when it popped. Starting over. That was an S38B36.

why the hell notbob norwood built a few 1000+hp ferrari's for the street, saw a cool article about him, the testrossa had like 20k miles at the absurd power level and the transaxle was slap worn out and they couldn't put any #s on it for the magazine

i know patrick and his car isn't as tricked out as you think it is the guys that are helped me in my build the took part in building patrick's car, ter-tec, or harry to be more specific. Actually if you talk to patrick ask about the silver e30 that he was scared shitless of. anyways I'm using a megasquirt system its a new standalone that being built by these two guys, here's the site http://www.bgsoflex.com/megasquirt.html
anyways since I'm not done with the car it gives me a chance to play with the internals of the computer its such a versatile system and because its designed for a mustang 5.0(bosch motronic) and its rediculously tunable and its simple.

Sir maybe you didn't see my signature, I am extremely well-versed in Megasquirt. You're not shining light on anything.
I built a megasquirt for an M50 utilizing 6 coil on plug coils with bosch idle air control, etc etc etc. You're not convincing me you're building a 1200hp E34. Sorry.
It takes a ton of money to build 1200hp into a 3.5L motor. I don't see how you have that money available and can't spell apocalypse or 'pursuing'

I'm sorry I didn't see your signature. Then you should know the capabilities of the system.

An EFI system doesn't make the motor my friend. I've seen hyundai tiburons running Tec3R....
i understand that. there is a whole lot more going into this than i have explained thus far, for that I apologyse. if you have any questions on other aspects of the car other than engine and even engine, I'll be more than happy to tell you. By the way its not going to be a drag suspension its a biltstein/h&r coil over set up. the body I'm widening in the shop with carbon fiber about an extra 4 inch on each side and for that I have a company in daytona making me a set of wheels to hold 355/30's for the rear and 285/35's for the front. the diff now thats something else entirely, its going to be a reinforced diesel diff for extra long gears and gobbs of top end. I'm not taking the car to the drag strip I'm taking it to the saltwater flats.

Can you tell us how old you are please, this is getting really funny.
A E34 w/ CF wide body (another first, aside from the 1200whp/12 injector and never before heard of ... aka doesnt exist T-100 turbo) on a salt flat. You realize the E34 has a ~.32 drag coefficient? You're not making sense bro, you want to build a car 4" wider on each side, murdering the drag coefficient, for a salt flat car? PS bilstein and H&R coil overs do not exist. You either have H&R coil overs, or you have bilstein coil overs... neither company makes coil overs for the E34.
Again, how old are you.
