220F and higher is quite normal in other cars under track usage or even hot weather in-town usage with A/C on. Is the FA20 *really* gonna fall apart at that temp? "Red" zone for most cars us up around 250F. Not that you'd want to keep it there...

How am I just now seeing this thread!?! Can’t wait to get your thoughts buddy!

Memory is a little dodgy on this as sometimes I have the temp gauge at "normal" setting with no numbers for *F, and sometimes I have it in the alternate setting where it shows tickmarks at 150F/190F/230F/270F, and they're different scales. In any case I'd see it go up and hold in a "normal" part of the range so didn't think about it much, more keeping eye on oil temp...

The stock setup is pretty good considering I have been peaking at about 199f with a larger koyorad.

Yeah, stock setup *is* pretty good!
Kinda reminds me of 240Z days, in my local Z club a guy would go on and on about the 4-row aluminum radiator he got for his mild 240Z build, maybe 150rwhp, *never* overheated! Meanwhile my 3.1 liter with sirrius headwork and 3x2 45mm carbs making 255rwhp never overheated either, with a factory 260Z radiator...

How did I miss this thread....

By my reckoning, you turned about 1:28 at Streets of Willow stock with a passenger! Very nice indeed.

Mike, is the front fender liner's vent section a riveted on part or moulded into the liner itself?

jflogerzi · 11-30-2021, 01:18 AM

Pedal dance still valid/needed?

Doesn't work. Don't think it's needed.... can't tell for sure as I'm not using suspension with high spring rates at this time, and no data to verify with.

One more valving change on the prototype CSG FLA, validate on old chassis, and then the new FLA may be ready to go....

Will the stem on the rear be shorten? Assuming they are teins.

They could be but a lot of folks would have a hard time reaching the adjuster.... no happy medium

Mike, what do you think about the traction control modes on the new car?

Tatsu333 · 12-12-2021, 06:26 PM

Any chance you guys can test-fit whether a 1st gen intake manifold can physically bolt to the 2nd gen FA24D motor? I'm sure Harrop and Edelbrock know already

but they're not sharing at the moment...
