i was just wondering if anyone knows if the internals vary on the supercharged and non-supercharged s351's? do they both have 8.8:1 compression? also does anyone know how much boost they make stock?

If no one posts, I'll be back... later with The Saleen Book (http://www.bradbowling.com/) by Brad Bowling.
Also, maybe talk to forum member TPSMak, I believe some of his peers own a nice percentage of the S351 production run. :smile: Then too, I might be confused. :confused:
Also keep in mind the NA 1994-1996 S351s pack a nice punch... and the motors don't go "boom."
It was during the 1995 production year that a specific 351 assembly was introduced for the Supercharged cars.
It appears for 1994-95 that the 351s are Lightning short block based with stock pistons, crank, and a Saleen cam.
I’m becoming more familiar with a late '95 version... and it looks like they could be a little different.
If you pick the car up, purchase a copy of The Saleen Book from either Bowling or the Saleen Locating Service (http://www.saleenls.com).

YUP.. we have 3 S351R's with the TPS Stable :)
Unfortunately the original S351Rs had stock Lightining short blocks :(
NONE of the engines in the S351Rs are stock :wink:
