Some may be aware that over the past year or so I've been actively working on a 4.2L stroker for one of my customers which was built specifically to showcase a 2300TVS, the same basic blower as what is found on the 660hp Shelby GT500 and the 638hp Corvette ZR1. It's a tight fit no doubt, but we managed it with room to spare actually by thinking a bit outside the box and not taking "no" for an answer. lol
The whole premise for this build was not actually maximum HP, but in stead maximum utility and reliability. In that regard we achieved our goals in style with 472rwhp @ 19.5psi all through a non-locking AOD and on pump gas with a conservative tune intended to lead a long and useful life.
Basic build specs:
SCUI built custom 8:5:1 4.2L SC block and heads.
Street cam pulls 11" vacuum in gear at idle and 14" in neutral with basically smooth idle leaving plenty of vacuum for brakes.
Spearco liquid to air intercooler.
TVS 2300 with 3.25" pulley.
95MM TB and 4.5" intake and slot style MAF
Aeromotive A1000 fuel pump and custom cell with all custom -10 lines and 80# injectors.
Lentech Street Terminator AOD with 2500rpm stall Art Carr converter, stock rear end gears.
Snow performance dual nozzle alcohol injection system.
Functional AC! lol
