    Mad my first 1/4 pass last night

    Thanks Brian. We'll see what she does by end of race seaon this year. Hopefully the C6 is in and we can make some serious passes. I'm looking forward to seeing what she'll do on boost. Should be fun :nice:. Could be bowel evacuating too.

    Made my first set of track passes with the 408

    Compression is a factor but not as much as elevation. We usually are running at about 5400ft. I was by no means running her full out, power shifting trying to squeeze every tenth out of her. Just a few leisurely break in runs. Clutch was slipping real bad. I'll get the setup I want and then go...

    Made my first set of track passes with the 408

    I don't know to be honest with you. It's sitting out in my garage. A friend of mine owns a race shop and builds these trannys. He's running one in his car and it runs 7.9's all day long. That's who I got to build mine. I just see the wire hanging out of the tranny case waiting to be hooked up. I...

    Project 81 HACK JOB TRACK TIMES!!!!

    I'd say you've got that mod motor hauling pretty good. Good times for an N/A power car. Plus the cool factor helps too :D.

    Made my first set of track passes with the 408

    Ya I can't wait to get the C6 in there. I love 5 speed cars for racing but this thing just blows the tires away all the time. The auto should settle it down a little. My crappy suspension doesn't help either. Now that I've got the power I have to build the rest of the car around it.

    Mad my first 1/4 pass last night

    I was pretty much taking it easy on her. First pass I only did a half track then came around and pulled the plugs to make sure we weren't too lean. Next pass I was going to go all out but tried to do a third gear burnout and the clutch slipped, didn't heat the tires and when the tree came down I...

    Mad my first 1/4 pass last night

    Car ran really strong. Absolute tire burner. First and second could not hook well at all, too much low end torque. Last pass of the night I ran a 12.87@111 with a crappy tire roasting 1.85 60ft. I only have 255 16 nittos on her right now, boy are they crappy tires. My Mickeys on my 96 hook ten...

    Made my first set of track passes with the 408

    Turned out ok. Car does not hook at all. Best 60ft was a 1.85 and best et was a 12.87 @111mph. She definitely has more in her. Not 11's but 12.3's for sure. Density altitude was 5400ft so I can't expect miracles. First and second go so damn fast, tough shifting gears when the tires are letting...

    Car fired up today...

    MSD seems to be slipping pretty bad lately so it seems. I've talked to a few guys at our track in the last few day sand have heard similar issues. Siounds like the digital ignition boxes are a really problem too. No more MSD for me.

    WELL, MECHANIC THINKS HE FOUND MY BLOWER/HEATING PROBLEM

    Everybody comes on here and says they want a 500rwhp car but they have no idea what it takes. It is a PITA and you better have money and patience. Welcome to the club Adrenalin, most of us blower guys have been where you are. There will always be something so get to know your car very well. Wait...

    My quest to build a 9 second fox

    I guess the other most important thing is how much can you do yourself or have freinds help you. If you can do most yourself you are laughing. I have a good friend who helps me out. I do all the purchasing and scheming and he helps me put the crap together. I can turn wrenches pretty good but...

    My quest to build a 9 second fox

    I am doing similar things like Brain said. The big block swap is a lot more work than a 351 stroker, especially if you want it fuel injected. It ultimately depends where you want to be. My 408 was actually pretty straight forward and with the Dart block you can bore it out way more to make it...

    Cold cylinder.... what to check

    Got her figured out. It was the distributor. Brand new but still junk. Switch some internals from my old 5.0 piece and she runs like a champ.
