I'd really like to get an m112 snout installed on this m90 body. Those m90 snouts are like 8 inches long, I'm hoping when it's all said and done the outlet if the supercharger is spaced perfectly between cylinders 2 and 3. None of this extreme offset stuff that gm did from the factory.

Proper cams, crank, and flywheel will give you this. You say you have a knack for fab, well shave the flywheel, get the fastest cams and strongest springs for the valves, and shave weight off of the crank. Make it the lightest reciprecating mass you can and you'll generate some serious power. These little engines can really rev up. I had it float the valves at close to 13,000. You'll be amazed.

I'm happy when I get a b6ze in a Miata to pull past 7500. Also, past 8 they start shaking the fasteners loose without a better dampener. I would love to have a 13k b6d.

Balancing the factory assembly helps a little, a dampener helps more. I wouldn't suggest lightening a factory flywheel unless you have the equipment to perform the necessary harmonic analysis to determine this modification is helping. Light flywheels give the illusion of more hp because they allow for quicker free rev and they don't dampen abrupt fluctuation in TQ as well, so a butt dyno or (even worse) dynojet will show gains.
The factory intake manifold on the Capri b6d shuts down the party by 6, and the miata b6ze manifold pinches the loaf off a little after 7. I've not tested the mx3 manifold. These engines will pull past 8 with more cam lift and duration, but you are then limited with the factory lifters and overlap doesn't help after you've exceeded the window of the intake and exhaust tune lengths/volumes.
I'm excited to play with this Capri engine management, because I think it could have more potential than the miata system, but I'm not expecting a 13k rpm tip over. Lol. Not saying this is impossible, but I want the secret to this.
BTW, sorry for going off topic. This conversion should continue in the DOHC B6 thread.Last edited by Advancedynamix; 04-15-2015, 12:49 PM.Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege.

in case you cant tell what i did, i cut the mounting holes off the bottom of the charger in reference to the picture. i calculate roughly 10 inches of space between the head and firewall, and with no bolt holes, its brings the width of the body down to 7 inches. plenty of space. lol. that is if both sides are trimmed. talk about a s.o.b. that sucked on the table saw. I did get it very flush with the side though, the other side won't be that lucky.Last edited by bhearts; 04-15-2015, 11:25 PM.
