Stenod Performance Twin Turbo Formula WS6 Project Car

We posted this over at LS1TECH a while back, just realized we never put it over here...sorry about that. Just copied the post from there.


Seeing that we are starting to do more work now and harlan's and derty's car seem to be under control. We decided to start another project car.

Were Building up Kevin's (1BADWS6) white Formula WS6 this time as sort of our "Shop Car". Nothing crazy about it, but we hope to be able to run this car in the Extreme street class when it's done.

The car will be the following

Moser 9" with 3.90/4.10 gear
28x15x10.5W
Proshifted T-56 to start, changing over to a TH400 when he gets the $$$
Exeddy Twin Disk Clutch

We have decided the powerplant behind this pig is going to be a solid roller 347 inch LS1 with 6.0l truck heads. the orginal plans were to run a dished piston and GRP aluminum Rod in this car, but after extensive talks with the boys at APE (Nick D) and W2W (Kurt and engine building staff), we quickly decided against that! lol! seeing that we want to still drive this car on the street once in a while. Anyways, here's the engine combo we are deciding to run thanks to the guys at W2W and some help from the guys at APE.

LS1 block
Mahle 3.905 custom W2W turbo Pistons
Howards 6.125 4340 rods specd by W2W
W2W custom Ring stack
Stock crankshaft

Seeing that the largest Turbo's we can run in extreme street is either a single 82mm or a pair of twin 60's. We've decided to run the Twin 60-1 turbonetics turbo's. The guys at AGP turbo have been great in helping us out with getting turbo's and getting them to us quickly. We should have turbo's and the wastegates by the end of the week. The turbo's will be mounted high and in front of the engine with the radiator stood straight up and down for more clearance.

You guys can stay up on our project by checking out our website. www.stenodperformance.com in the picture gallery section. We have some five pictures of the project so far, but mainly just of the cage we started bending up that last few nights.

Should be a fun project. We'll keep you guys updated

Re: Stenod Performance Twin Turbo Formula WS6 Project Car

Here is an update

We have made a lot of progress on the car this weekend. The cage is done and is 60% finish welded. We have all the hot sides done and have the wastegates mounted just below the turbos. There are some new pics on the website, but there are none with the wastegates in yet. I'll get some and throw them on later tonight. The block is back from the machine shop and we will probably be assembling it late next week or next weekend. It's starting to come along now!!

Check out the pics in the photo gallery...link is below

Re: Stenod Performance Twin Turbo Formula WS6 Project Car

I believe it is the one used for the C5. It was a prototype deal I got through Detroit Speedworks a few summers ago. Call Ededy and ask them if the C5 twin disc can be used in an F-body, they will shoot you straight
