I'm wondering if their are any members who have converted 914's (to sbc) with a 901 trans-axle who have noted their corner exit RPM's at Summit Point Motorpark WV?
I don't have a computer to log my exit rpm's and I'm building a new bottom end but need to know this data so I can correctly match a camshaft. |

Corner exits rpm are a function of gear and speed. I can take the same corner in 4th at 2500rpm or in 3rd at 3200rpm.. Or if I take a corner at 85mph and you take it at 65mph.. Guess I am wondering what you hope to improve upon by comparing others data points.
Also consider that other tracks do exist and if you build a motor for a specific track, you might have less fun elsewhere. The really serious folks build a motor first, then swap gearboxes to keep it in the powerband for particular tracks. |
