im gonna do some internal/external modding to my 3.4 and i need to kno what clutch u guys reccomend. I was looking on ammperformance.com and the stage 1 will hold 400 hp i kno i wont have that much so u guys think it'll work fine? if not what clutch u guys reccomend

p.s. mods im planning are headers, pulley set, k&n intake, lunati cam (ammperformance, only lunati for 3.4), 1.6:1 roller rockers, ported heads and plenum, lt1 throttle body.

 

can anyone give me just a guess of my hp numbers at engine and wheels after these mods

p.s. also have flowmaster exhaust, and my tranny is manual

 

To much clutch and you will trash the trans or rear on your car.
Most likely the trans I dont think the trans on out cars is real strong.
Just ask the DSM turners they know a lot about replacing transmissoins.
How ported will the heads be?
What ate the #'s on that cam?
What springs will you use?
Tell what the cam #'s are and I can tell you what I think it might get you.
An after market cam (any one worth buying) and 1.6 rockers all ways means your stock springs will have to go.

 

it is the lunati-30000

im looking for a cam that will give me the most n/a power but still driven as a daily driver
thx

 

I would think that if you get less than 200 hp some thing would be very wrong.
I think YOu could get as much as 240 on the ground at most (with those 1.6 rockers helping), I'm saying no more than 240.
I think you might want to get a 2.8/3.1 intake for that cam.
With my 3.4 and crane cam (216*/228*) I think I can get 220 at most no lest than 190.

 

well im tryin to get the most n/a power i can right now but plan on addin turbo kit in the summer so i dont wanna do anything thtas gonna need changin then, so what cam yall guys reccomend?

 

in addition to what cam i should get (something that gaves the most n/a gains) with these mods what kind of rwhp and rwtq am i lookin at before turbo and after intercooled turbo runnin about 6-7 psi? thx

 

anyone got any info to help me out?
thx

 

The problem is that turbo cams and N/A cams are very different. You would want a completely different setup for a turbo, so if you're going to cam i'd cam with the turbo project.

 

yes i understand the difference, but i want a fast n/a car right now, the turbo is a ways away, but even if i get an na cam and turbo later that will produce more power than just leaving the factory and turboing, so i just need an oopinion on a cam with the biggest n/a gains

 

If you want a cam I think the lutani 228*/228* is just plain wrong for a turbo cam.
If I rember right it had 8 degrees of over lap.
I have the crane 272 cam.
216*/228* @.05''
.454''/.480'' of lift
LSA is 112
It has 1 degree of over lap.
It should make a good mid range power turbo cam, not a good choice for top hp and high rpm's.
Any way it would be a huge improvement over the stock cam n/a or turbo.
