don't l feel like an a$$. l didn't read the whole thread last year, when l posted, and not until just now :/ A low 9 second V6 street car is surprisingly doable.
You have a 270 ci V6: 4.00" x 3.59"
2.10" x 1.625" valves
First, the 232 will behave very differently than the 270. I spec'd a cam for the 231, assuming 2.02" valves. The 270 will run and perform completely differently. You can't cam it and turbo it like a 270 and expect ANY correlation. I think your low end torque issue is the 2.100" valve on a 232
I'm surprised a 4" bore head fit on a 3.8" bore without issues. I'd expect some gasket issue, if not fuel pouring onto the ledge.
Turbos are not power adders...they multiply. So, start off with a naturally aspirated 270ci. You should aim for about 400 bhp @ 6500 rpm (that's only 80% VE). That's roughly 1000 bhp with 29 psig, 900 with 18 psig. The better the base engine, the better the turbo engine.
230/230* 112* LSA 110 Int CL (NOT a turbo cam)
EVO 49*
EVC 1*
IVO 5*
IVC 45*
This motor is basically 3/4 of an LS2...and close enough to an LS3...or LS9. It can be cammed similarly. Take a look at Lingenfelter's LS9 GT9 cam - 215*/247* 121* LSA. It's spec'd to have stock idle, and work with stock heads to 6000 rpm.
EVO 58.5*
EVC 8.5*
IVO -7.5*
IVC 42.5*
Very different than your 230* cam, eh? Notice the GT9 cam opens the intake much later (reduce blow through), and opens the exhaust earlier (quicker spool and blow down). Late IVO will NOT hurt rpm...you need to delay IVC several degrees. Note that it's more accurate to work off of advertised duration.
Can you post ported flow figures when available?
btw, those ramp rates are VERY quick. How is valvetrain deflection with those 240# springs? (i.e. lift at the valve). Comp has some VERY nice LSX cams EHI/EHX that will rev to 8000 and .800" lift with 150# conical springs and short travel hydraulic lifters. Perhaps they can grind you a gentle cam for the Stage II. Hollow intake valves will help greatly.
fwiw, l'm a powertrain judge at a Formula SAE type event in Canada. Undergrads have access to $30,000 engine simulation software, such as Ricardo WAVE and GT Power. I've seen bright students correlate their model with dyno results...with the WRONG cam. They need a LOT of detailed information from expensive sensors. A $500 program has a snowball's chance in hell of being accurate - that's why it's performance "trends". You can learn from it, but don't get hopeful because you get close to a peak number under a single condition.
