Im going to sell the old pumps and regulator...if anyone is interested

I will document the install of the cable drive as well

 

u get that thing to the track yet????

 

Still working on cable drive fuel pump, should be back at Dyno on Tuesday. I plan on getting to the track soon but in no hurry I've got a ton of money invested and over 1k hp so just trying to make everything function the best and be safe. Still need to hookup trans brake and figure out the boost ramp rates on the controller

 

Heading back to the dyno again this week to get the tune worked on from the the fuel pump change. I changed a couple things on the car as well. Got rid of those shitty GMPP valve covers and picked up a set of quality Nasty Performance Billet covers. I got the Kurt Urban vapor system all plumbed in and got the new breather line ran from the valley cover. Trying to get everything all together for this weekend goodguys hot rod show.

 

Nice build.....

What was wrong with the GMMP valve covers? I have a set on my car, but haven't run it yet.......what do I need to watch out for?

T,

 

may work just fine on stock heads, My allpro heads have a raised rail for large valvetrain so the spacers that go between the cover and the pedestals was touching when you torque the covers and you can tighten them due to the cast covers. the nasty performance ones are worth the coin

 

Took the car back out to Dynotune Motorsports and Brian put it up on the rollers, worked on the tune some more and amazed at how much the new fuel pump setup really helped the car, we had 4 pulls over 1000 whp with the highest being 1051 by accident. The final numbers that we settled on is 1017 whp and 1019 tq @ 17psi which is the same boost I made the 930whp at. With the help of brian really working on the tune and aid of the endless fuel supply injector duty cycle also went down to 75% and IAT were around 120* with it being over 90* and shitty airquality.

Very Excited with my FINAL numbers

Also the addition of the valley vent worked out GREAT! No more issues at all with crankcase pressure. Only a few small bugs I want to work out now and then just enjoy the car.

Here is the graph will post vid here in a few

That is just pure insanity man. Very very nice job on the tune!

That thing is bad ***!!! are you running Aluma Stars??

I sent you a PM the other day, you get it?

 

Sorry read it and replied. I thought I already replied. They are aluma stars upfront and just pro star Jegs knock offs outback

 

Amazing build I love nova's!!

 

its amazing what fuel supply will do. awesome nova man. love it!

 

yeah I was foolish to think two large *** Aeromotive A1000 pumps would flow enough fuel

Mechanical pumps have me sold now

 

just heard from someone that the car was posted up on lsxtv pretty cool

update?

did you ever get it weighed?

 

Have not been the most forgiving summer for me to get the car out but was able to get the car to the track for its first outting on a local track rental day

Learned some stuff and have plenty of adjustments and want to raise the boost but right around 10psi leaving off the footbrake the car went 10.53@147mph. The car comes to life about the 330 mark. It went 2.2 60ft so I know once I can build some boost at the line and leave off the transbrake Ill be shaving some serious time!

Heres the gopro vid from that run

Very nice!

What's your stall speed on the converter?

Doug

 

I did not bring it up on the stall either, the stall is around 3k. I just needed some basic sear time. I may goto the next test and tune and bring it up on the stall and see where that gets me from my launch. The tbrake and 2step will have to wait until next season most likely.

 

Impressive though. The motor sounds really strong too.
