not sure on power as yet as i havent finished putting engine together but it ment to have 10.5 to 1 comp with standard heads and one my mates painted it in his shed

[EQUIPE-T]

looks like its commin along nicely mate, well done :)

[pvk308]

Im guessing your running something similar to cranes 286 cam in a crow version whats the peak rev range for the cam if its around 10.5 im guessing your looking at roughly 6800 peak rev range with a peak hp at roughly 6200

I have always had a soft spot for the VN's. Have liked the shape of them and sound of the 5 litre. I owned a Calais that had a worked 5 litre in it and it used to go nicely but it had its own unique sound. Very deep gurgle. I kept it tidy and almost regret the day I sold it. It did look nice but I think I moved onto something nicer. It's nice to see you putting the time and effort into making a VN come up looking a million dollars. :)


Here is a photo of my beloved old girl.

yeah i am using the crow cam copy of the crane 286

[vn man]

yea this my second vn my first one was vn s v6 5 speed had front half vn ss grp a and the rear was ss side skirts and rear bumper and i'm thinking about buying vn apv v8 5speed for 2000 but needs new clutch and 4 new tyres and rego

[pvk308]

ah thought as much thats should then make around the 420fwhp mark probably a little more not bad though
