Its now an LS3 stroked to 7.1 with a nice gm performance inlet manifold + hand made (craig @ tyre torque .. again ) plenham. aids hard revving = 7.5 k very easily... I have just collected the car ... its ferocious .. very very qiuck.. the acceleration / torque is immense. I thought it was qiuck before but clearly it was'nt.
A big thanks to Craig and Dave Walker at Emerald.

Dave Walker now there is a man who knows his engines, no wonder you are getting good power now if he remapped it. Don't suppose your car will get featured in his monthly writeups in PPC then

If you go to performance forum then find z3 v8 ( i think) you'll find a full original build topic. I'm having trouble with my computer at the moment so cant post pics.... I will post the dyno sheet when i can.

Quite agree I love reading this mag and can be quite funny at times with Will's exploits.
