Viento IVA Questions
Irony - 28/5/15 at 01:51 PM

Filling in my IVA form and I am basically guessing some stuff.

Maximum Revs - 5500rpm - seems to be some argument about this being 5500rpm or 6000rpm. I thought less is better for the noise test.

Max Power - 188 hp (140 kW) at 4750 rpm and 250 lb·ft (340 N·m) at 2600 rpm. - This is the common information found on the web for the 3.9/4.0

Design Weights - Front 550 rear 700 gross 1250 - These are the old Luego figures.

Max Road Speed - 5500rpm - Tire Diameter 25.7 - 3.64 diff ratio = 115.6mph@5500rpm


Does anyone disagree with the above information? If so please speak up.

This is for my IVA form so I don't suppose it has to be absolutely accurate. I am probably being on the conservative side regarding max revs and max power as I am running new V8 developments block/balanced crank/megajolt/weber 500/duplex timing chain etc but I doubt by much. I have been led to believe it'll be about 200 - 210bhp.

Max revs and max power? Think you may have misunderstood the question asking for "Max power revs". They want to know the revs at which max power is made. Thats used to work out what revs to do the noise test at... 3/4 max power revs (or failing that being known, 2/3 max revs)
