Wats the difference? and if u only want to do cams once will turbo cams hurt a s/c motor?

[futureMACH1racer]

I believe that turbo cams are the same as blower cams for centri blowers. Positive displacement blowers have specific cams.

I plan on swaping in a 03-04 cobra dohc s/c motor into my car soon. Reasons y are 1. 150k+ of abuse from previous owners. 2 same cost as forged 2v plus more power, 3 they sound amazing w fi. it will be s/c for a while but heads and cams will go on b4 i drop it in. the mods will be by no means be done. i want twin turbos at the end but it will be s/c fora while. will turbo cams hurt the s/c motors performance?

IDK, why go with compound boost? You have your Eaton with twins on top of that. What kind of power are you looking for?

wat it takes to run high 8s. i cant seem to find a cobra motor w a s/c that gets outa the high 9s

A whole lot more than just an engine. It takes money mostly, and the faster you want to go the more it costs. You're talking about building a race car. You're going to need some serious brakes, suspension, and chassis work first.

A car like that should be built from the ground up

Be aware that the UPR anti-roll bar kit MUST NOT be run on the street or it will be damaged. You need to un-hook the links and tie them out of the way for the street. Youre also gonna have to dump the exhaust in front o the rear axle with that kit as well. If you're looking for high 8's, what transmission do you plan on running?

[futureMACH1racer]

I would reccomend a C4 or a powerglide, but's me.

[adrenaline=lifeline]

built 4r70w. theres a guy on here w one on his 2005+ car

im doin side exhaust and thanx i did not kno this.

Lentech makes a kit, but I don;t know if the 4R70W is strong enough, besides you're building a race car, why not go with a powerglide? They're stronger and more efficient.

Then you arent looking. I know alot of guys running 8.50s with superchargers and stock bore/stroke 4.6s.

videos, threads, anything would be helpful

[futureMACH1racer]

Do you realize how much money you're looking at spending to get into the 8's? You're looking at about $20k

yea i have and its more then that. i priced it all once. i know itll several years to complete. its a dream. it should have begun jan of this year but a wreck of my honda and economy have forced my dad and i to hold off on it, but i plan on gettin a bike for a dd and i have a ranger that my gdad left us for days i cant use the bike.

As far as you original question, no a turbo specific grind will not hurt an eaton powered car. As for S/C'd 8 sec cars they are all over the place, not on an eaton mind you, but you don't have to go turbo to get 8's. Also a built 4r70w will handle the power if its built by the right person but you will be better off with a built c-4 c-6, or a built AOD. I wouldn't do a power glide unless its a strip only car but FM1R is right it is about the best for a car that runs those times, especialy a turbo car. You said you where doing heads and cams before you dropped it in? What heads are you planning on putting on it?
