Dam this car is a rocket, lol..

[Pokageek]

No I am not racing anyone..I don't need to. Just giving you guys an update. I've stopped wrenching and been driving . I hit it on empty streets and on ramps lol.

The low end feels like a dump truck hitting it in the back and I'm good for OVER 530 + + on a cool night with Rick Hawver's or rather his dad's CAI design. You want a real CAI? PM Rick_91gt. I don't know if its the bigger C.I. or what but they designed this thing with precision welded aluminum and it honks deep down into the fenderwell where the air is just plain cold on a night like tonight and feels like 20HP more easy.

With all the suspension mods it still just barely hooks but spins too.. Lot's o fun.

i'm glad to hear your finally enjoying the car and not stuck still in the garage.

 

[Zero Signal]

Not always true . . . trust me


When are we going to get some videos of this?

haha.. Actually I make far more than a mechanical engineer right now, BUT, I have to travel around for work, which I hate, and I get dirty

pics?

Thanks guys. I think their on the pictures of your car thread at the end.

Dyno was done on a 100* day. I am over 500 HP..prolly like 520-530 depending on the air temps and TQ is around 550 depending on the drivetrain loss factor.

Glad that your finally enjoying the ride. One question.... Was it all worth it?
I should have asked ya that question right after the skinny pedal hits the floor cause then I know there would be no hesitation to the reply. Im sure you have a huge grin every time you wack the throttle. Again congrats on the build.

 

[Pokageek]

Thanks Man.

Well Keith, finally the pot of gold at the end of the stormy rainbow.....glad to hear that you finally get to enjoy that beast....

 

[Pokageek]

Thanks man. Here's some pics!

Panhard bar..lower part..hard to see.

Hood

Headers Accufab

 

[Pokageek]

BTW he headers woke it up UNBELIEVABLY. Without them the car was no where near its potential ALL along the power band and missing some major power. It felt like the difference between a v6 and a v8 (That drastic).

Why am I remembering you posting that your car dynoed at like 420 to the wheels?

 

[95Vert]

Keith, is that a Kaenen hood?

Not sure what your question is.

You know...I am trying to remember what hood that is lol... I think it's called svo hood?

Yeah, it is the Cobra R w/ SVO scoop hood, but there's different manufacturers which makes them look different. Yours looks a lot like mine which is made by kaenen and is different than the others.

 

[Pokageek]

o' 422 \ enter your drivetrain factor here = .83 for my g-force = 508. Plus I was saying the cai feels like 20 extra. bean counter...

O. I had to cut it to get the engine to fit as well! And it is mighty sturdy.

 

[Black Stampede]

Not sure what your question is.

I was wondering why I thought you had posted awhile back it made 420 to the wheels and now your are saying it makes 530 to the wheels. That is all.
