    0-110 mph acceleration in a blown 2v

    I was originally trying to capture a stutter during high-rpm shifting to show my tuner. It didn't happen this time, but made for an amusing video. Sorry for the beep-beep, but my camera hand was resting on the steering wheel for steadiness, and the beeps happened when I shifted into 2nd...

    No gain with LTs on a blown 2v -suggestions?

    Just thought I'd share this information, and see if others had similar experiences. With a Vortech V1 S-Trim, and a 3.05" Reichard Pulley, I was reaching 10-12 psi at ~6200 rpms. This was with the stock manifolds and Bassani X-pipe with cats. Power level was ~ 440 rw-ish. I put in BBK...

    Notchiness and lockout in T45 only after burnout

    I've been having problems with getting locked out of high rpm shifts on the track. It has something to do with the burnout. No burnout, and I can nail every gear at 6200 rpms with no problem. I've tried shorter burnouts, lower rpms, 1st gear vs 2nd gear, etc. and apart from a (useless) very...

    Notchiness and lockout in T45 after burnout

    There are mixed opinions about synchromesh -and I'll probably switch back to Redline D3 ATF or Mobil 1 ATF. But this problem started before the synchromesh.

    Notchiness and lockout in T45 after burnout

    Thanks for your insight. Do you think that it would help if I set the firewall adjuster to increase the air gap -i.e., so that the clutch grab at a higher pedal position?

    Notchiness and lockout in T45 after burnout

    I tried this and it shifted smoothly in both cases.

    Notchiness and lockout in T45 after burnout

    Yes. I had Redline D3 ATF in there for a while. Then when the notchiness started, I changed the fluid and put in GM Sychromesh. I didn't get the notchy feeling on my next trip to the track, so I thought the problem was solved, and caused by the old redline fluid (it was in there for 15 k miles...

    Notchiness and lockout in T45 after burnout

    Its a SPEC 3 clutch, with about 15 k miles and about 80 passes on the strip. I also have a UPR quadrant and Fiore adjuster. But I don't think thats it -with the clutch pedal pushed in, I can feel the notchiness in all the gears. Can the burnout be heating up the tranny too much and...

    Notchiness and lockout in T45 after burnout

    Right after a burnout, my T45 is very notchy. I try to loosen things up by shifting through all the gears (with the clutch pushed in) right before staging. It helps, but I still have intermittent problems getting locked out of gear during high-rpm shifting. The problem seems to be related to...

    Stutter or hiccup during shift after focus pumps and retune

    Background: I just switched from cobra pumps to twin focus pumps + wire mod, because I started running lean after installling longtubes in my blown GT. My peak boost did drop, indicating that I'm pushing more air through the engine, so I guess its feasible. The cobra pumps were running at...

    Pulley Noise (I hope)

    Yeah, it sounds like something is rubbing. Could it be the vortech idler against the alternator? I have to grind off a little bit of the alternator housing to clear my idler when I did my bracket upgrade.

    Vortech S trim leaking at oil feed nozzle

    I had a leak in mine a while ago, so I upgraded to their stainless steel oil feed for about $60 -might be worth considering. I had the same question about using teflon tape or paste. There's a very fine filter mesh inside the oil feed fitting as well as very narrow lines for the oil to flow...

    03 Cobra Pumps maxing out on my 2v GT -any ideas?

    Cobra tanks are expensive ($550), will spederman's idea work? Any drawbacks to drilling out the fuel cannister? What about turning it to swiss cheese to ensure it gets enough fuel?

    Stock 2v shortblock, pretty impressive

    Me neither. Chris Kauffman is making 500+ to the wheels with stock internals. That's the highest # I've seen.

    03 Cobra Pumps maxing out on my 2v GT -any ideas?

    I have the Cobra Pumps in the GT tank. We already thought about that, so we tried filling up the tank...it didn't help.

    03 Cobra Pumps maxing out on my 2v GT -any ideas?

    Steeda. I dunno, maybe my gauge is off. Anyway, this morning, the fuel filter was changed, and the cobra pump is still maxing out. So we've decided to do a wire mod (thicker gauge wire) to the fuel pump, and switch to dual Focus pumps. I'll keep you posted.

    03 Cobra Pumps maxing out on my 2v GT -any ideas?

    Regarding the MAF sensor, I have a Pro-M univer, in a blow-thru set-up.

    03 Cobra Pumps maxing out on my 2v GT -any ideas?

    100% duty cycle, and the A/F climbs to 12.8:1. Fuel filter is a good idea -that'll be the next thing I'll check.
