My son is about to get his license and I was thinking of getting a focus for him....


HAH. Might was well give him a loaded pistol, bottle of whiskey and bag of oxys, he would live longer with those than if I gave him a car like that.

Insane build

I had some really good results on the dyno today.



car did really good.

All runs are done in 2nd gear. I think it would make a little more in 3rd gear. but with the current gear it turns over 170 in third. I am swapping a 3.73 in later this week and will put it back on the dyno after that.

best run was 386whp

170 in third, what gear is in that thing now, a 1.50? lol

Romulus22

At those RPMS on a 26" tire he'd only need 3.23's to hit 170 in 3rd

Love this build, even more so that you built it yourself instead of going the Kugel route.

Engine looks right at home in there haha. That's going to be a blast to drive.
Panels look great man.
Do you have enough clearance to close the hood?


You're not too far from, just saw you're in Washington.

Yeah the hood closes, barely, you can hardly fit a piece of paper between the tb and the hood.

Its actually a GTX4294r with a tial housing. I bought is for another project that I never completed. If I didnt already have it I would have probably gone with twins for better exhaust clearance.

Wow!
My dd is a 05 ZX3 with 241K miles, replacing the Engine in My C5 with
a custom built engine. What to do with the stock LS1 coming out?
Hmmm....
Great Job OP in for Results.

What water pump is that. ?

Romulus22

Looks exactly like mine which is a Speedmaster. it flows well but the rubber o-rings did not seal well enough for me and I've had hit and miss luck keeping it from leaking. I also had to countersink all the hardware holding the motor on as it's so slimline it wouldn't sit flush too the block. Maybe they've fixed this by now though.
