If this vehicle is a cummins diesel will the change in wheel size affect the performance,,torque,,horsepower,,,,,gas mileage etc....

All the above. the taller wheels will need more power and torque to move.

I have made and ridden motorcycles for 20yrs and the biggest factors with tyre sizes are stabilty from centrifugal force. Bikes with small wheels are unstable at higher speeds, they are inherently closer to destruction because at the same speed a smaller tyre is revolving faster. Tyres are critical on bikes. As a bike leans in to a corner, the tyre, because of it's shape or profile, increases in contact surface to counteract the amount of force pushing the bike to the outside of the corner. These forces get to a certain point before the bike will slide and crash. Things that affect the performance of this are, heat in the tyre, weight vs power vs tyre size, tyre profile, diameter, motorcycle geometry.\nBasically you do not change wheels or tyre shapes on a bike unless u are prepared for the consequences. Harleys may put really big tyres on but they are not performance orientated. \nAlmost all bikes these days have a 120/70 17inch front and depending on power a 160-200/55 17inch rear. Most bikes pre-1988 ran 18inch(or bigger) tyres. The simple reason for this is stability vs steerablity. 17inch is the best compromise. If you are designing a bike, stick with these sizes and work on suspension, geometry and weight distribution as they are more changeable. cheers Neil

You better find out if your transmission can handle the extra power your planning on adding with that turbo.  I would suggest you do more research on this before you buy it.

I have a 1994 Acura Integra and I replaced my engine with a JDM B18 VTEC\nthis is the most powerful engine I would put into it.  If you're crazy drop in an H22 (2.2L Accord engine)\n\nGood luck!

Yes.  This company does conversion kits  http://www.dieselveg.com/

mmmm, 92 toyota corolla, i won't say is a good car to do swap for sure.  here is the thing, if you wanna do a awd it is going to cost you more then the value of the car for sure.  the engine probably going to cost you about $5000 *celica GT+4 engine if you can find one* and then the awd plus rear tran axis need to be change all that.  you probably will looking at some where about almost $10,000 to do everything.  remember you need to change and cut on the fram too, basicly you going to lose the safity struacture on the car.  if i was you, i won't do it, just safe the money to get a new car man.

If you are not going to change the computer you will want to stay close to the motor that the computer is programmed for. A full roller 305 with a decent set of heads will get you plenty of power if you leave the injection system on. The heads are the main place to gain hp without increasing cubes. If you are going to a carb then drop in a 350. Lots more torque than a 305 but a little harder on the gas. Keep the cam pretty mild for the computer or you will get lots of check engine lights because the motor will get out of the parameter of the computer and sensors.

Toyota will shake up the mix a bit, will be interesting to see how well they do.\n\nWith the car of tomarrow it wont matter what your drive all the cars will be the same.

Well there is torque,torque pulls,horspower,well how much grunt does it make or,output of engine.It's about like thrust.The more you have the faster it will go,or the more it will pull.

By choosing light weight pullies, you will slightly decrease parasitic drag on the engine. \nThe effects will probly not even be noticed at all.\n\nLike the last guy said, underdrive pullies will give you a few more HP.

If the 370hp Ram is rated at 370 at the motor and not the wheels then yes, if the hp is rated at the wheels then again it's gonna be close, as both trucks are heavy anyway.\n\nWhere are you at, I know of a certain 2002 Chevy that would put some $$$$ on the line, it's just a lil' ol' VORTEC; ) surely no match for the big bad HEMI.  If you're close to Ark. give me a holler, it can be arranged.

"turbo" used in normal piston driven engines uses the exhaust gasses energy to drive a (typically) radial turbine that is connected to a compressor that compresses the intake air. \n\nThe increased amount of air (mainly the oxigen in interesting) allows to add more fule to the mix and create a larger explosion in the cilinder yielding more power.\n\nThe air can optionally be cooled using an "intercooler" (air-to-air heat exchanger)\n\nFor diesel powered engines the result is an increase in power of the engine and an improvement of the fuel economy. For gasoline powered engines the results are an increased power, but the fuel economy might go either way.

That all depends on the diameter of the wheels, and not on the speed of the car.  \n\nThe circumference of a wheel is given by c = 2(pi)r, which is 2 times pi times the radius.  \n\nAll you have to do is find out how many times the circumference of the wheel goes into one mile, which is given by,\n\n1 mile divided by 2(pi)r\n\nFor example, let's say the radius of the tire is 3 feet, and there are 5,280 feet in a mile, so you have:\n\n5280/(2(pi)3) = 280 (approximately)\n\nBecause the radius of the tire is in the denominator of the equation we just used, you can say there is an inverse relationship between the number of revolutions and the radius.  This means, as the radius of the tire increases, the number of revolutions made decreases.  \n\nIn fact, you could take it to the extreme, where the radius of the tire was about 840.34 feet, which would make the circumference of the tire equal to one mile.  In that instance, the revolutions would be equal to one.

I'll go with the Ram. My 345 horse Hemi Ram is stinkin' fast so I can just imagine a 460 horse diesel with a chip. Let us know!

this is basically a chevy 350 stroked to a 383. they are a very good reliable strong engine. excelent for truck applications. they will work QUITE well in a camaro.Lots of off the line power!!

Turbos can (and have) been put on carb'd cars.  However, due to the increased control using today's electronics, I can't see them as being as effective as FI turbocharged.  When you increase the airflow to the engine (turbocharging and supercharging are forced induction) you must increase the fuel as well, otherwise you will end up in an incredibly lean condidtion and damage the motor.  Motors work best with a specific air/fuel ratio.  With carbs you must re jet for the best compromised AFR.  With FI you can "map" the fuel to maintain the best AFR over the entire range of RPM. Other mods will include oiling system changes (you need to make sure the turbo will live). Hope this helps.
