I will be shortly starting my NA build. Before we go any further I am fully aware the reward, £ per hp isn’t anywhere near FI however, I am not trying to build a 400-500hp car. I already have a fast, fun, turbo car and very much enjoy the NA drivability of the 350z on track so have decided to go the NA route. 300whp would be perfect IMO.
My plan is the following, built from a stock vq35de engine:
vq37 crank
vq37 forged rods
cosworth high compression pistons (11:1)
cams (unsure which yet)
Uprated valve springs
plus all the usual bolt on mods including exhaust manifolds oil cooler etc.
not sure on sump options yet (any advise?)
One of my questions is what cams would people recommend, Tomei 272 (high/low?) or some JWT or something else?
I have done a fair amount of searching and reading however can’t find many people doing the ‘poor mans stroker’ option to make it a 3.7L, any reasons behind this other than cost?
Thanks
