Build Thread My Never Ending 89 Notch Thread

[TOOLOW91]

So the price has dropped then.

When they were made to order, they were considerably more. I have 3 or 4 different ones lying around somewhere. When I got a quote for a just an over sized crank pulley (single belt) it was over $700. I'm sure someone has these made and sitting on a shelf by now.

This was a make to order deal as well . I waited almost 3 weeks for it .

I'll have to measure the ones that I have. I dunno if you recall, but the white 89 I have had Vortech kit on it. I have 3 different size pulleys for that thing. I guess that I assumed they were shelf-stock items from Vortech.

They are but the renegade pulley only comes from them with an undriven crank acc belt . Kris recommended having asp make the 8 inch blower pulley with the standard acc belt pulley size on it.

Well its been hectic but i managed to work overtime today and get the car completely back together and running. All ineed to do tomorrow is swap the crank pulley, Run a wire from the cluster to the msd for a tach lead.

Tuesday kris is supposed to get it on the rollers. I tried to tuck the harness down and keep it as neat as i could. Ill post some vids in a few.

where did you stash the ecu? stock location?

For right now it's flat on the floor under the carpet . I'm not sure exactly how I want to mount it . It fits in there but is awkward the way it sits I can't use the 4 mounting holes

Well its official . Got the garage straightened up a little bit. I pulled the cluster after work and fed the tach signal to the stock tach. Thats all up and working. Tomorrow night well have some numbers . I cant wait. Its been a long week to get to this point.

Did you tighten the tach gear and lube the cable?

 

[TOOLOW91]

Soooooooooooo

We got it all ironed out took it for a ride worked on some stuff a bit with drivability .

Made a full pull and saw 705 at the tire on straight 93 pump gas . Plugs looked good but we all agreed to dial it back a bit seeing 17psi . Played with it and got it down to a safe 639/662 at the tire .

We then spiked the fuel with 5 gall of MS109 .

The car made 740/730 at the tire.

It's wicked .
