Took the Red Rocket back to make an extreme street/track car on a somewhat budget.Working on it mostly saturdays for almost a year we have it running. Will pick away at it till next spring when the track opens up again.

Basic run down

10 point cage with net/ parachute from Halls custom

427ci resleeved LS2 from Shawn at Virginia speed

TEA/TFS 235 heads with upgraded springs/valve from Total Engine Airflow

Comp cam, speced by us

FIC 127lb injectors - idle perfect at 800rpm

T400 fully built from RPM Transmission

Converter from Yank

Midwest Chassis rear package with 35 spline and 3.00 gear

AFCO coil overs, strange brakes

BMR front end package

88m Turbo from Forced induction

All piping done inhouse- testing out our new Tig welder

Here are some build pics, have a ton of them

 

Some more

some More

 

Some finished,so far. Also the dyno graph from seating the motor and driveline. Only ran 9lbs of boost on straight 93 octain for now. Will be turned up to 15/16lbs this winter.

Special thanks to

Snowking for being here most saturdays putting this together

Sam- for painting the engine bay up

Nick- for alot of misc work.

 

I think you missed the spring part?

 

looks slow

 

Ever since you guy's ran 8's
Everybody is slow now

 

Lookin' good Don!

 

I saw the spring part. But I also saw it was almost done. didn't know if you were going to try and sneak in a cecil trip.

 

Hey don nice alternator! Haha

 

Nice work Don! It looks great.

on a somewhat budget.... is that code for $100K??? That build is top shelf!!! Looks great.

 

Bling bling

 

Someone always pics out the old altinator. Lol. It will be replaced.

It's a budget to us because we did all the labor. I'm hoping it pulls of easy 8.5's on pump gas/ methanol and has no issues next year. Reliable 8.5 car that easily drives on the street.
Next year I might upgrade the cage to a 25.5.

 

Just messing with you about the alternator!!
Everything looks real good!!

Got to get my car back to you soon

 

Looking good, ill be calling you shortly need a couple tunes on some new trucks. Looking forward to checking out the car.

 

If theres one thing I hate it's being a spectator at the track. Kills me, but I'll do it to see Don run this one next spring.

 

:With that 3 series gear, are you going for the land speed record

Good luck, you guys do great work, see you in the spring.

I might be putting a legal stocker program together to run division 1.

 

Easy fix. Don't sell the car! You will buy another and start over.
