excited to see finished product and numbers you put down! which intercooler are you using? did you have to cut the impact bar to fit it? also what size intercooler piping are you usin? looks great!

 

its a 3in intercooler and imusing 3in piping and i just took the front impact bar off

 

ebay FMIC?

 

Looks pretty tight in the front corner with all the plumbing. Is there enough room for the downpipe to go over the kmember over there?

 

yeah there is enough room ive already ran the downpipe, its getting closer got everything wired and fuel system is ran, hopefully should crank it up soon, here is a updated pic. taken with cell so its not good quality

 

looks great man, really good job. i dont see why you couldnt see 700 out of a forged motor and a 76 on 17 LBS. 600 is a very realistic number though. good luck man, subscribed!

 

well snapped a few pics this morning before i left the house, its getting closer hopefully soon I can crank it!

 

looks like you still had room for the condenser if you mounted it behind the radiator?

 

yeah there is room but Im not plan on running a/c i took it off a lon time ago, plus i dont like the way the alt. relocation bracket looks that mounts on the passenger cylinder head so im having a bracket made so that i can put the alt. where the a/c compressor went

 

ITS ALIVE!!!! Video's soon!

 

Do you have a picture showing ground clearance? A shot from the front at ground level would be appreciated.

 

yeah here is a couple i snapped real quick, I had a set of lowering springs all the way around and i was afraid of his scrubbing with the iron block so i swapped and put factory springs back on the front and it has a nice stance to it and still has good ground clearance.

 

looookin goood can't wait to see video's and #'s

 

looks good man . Waiting on the vid. When are you getting it tuned? Id lke to see what kind of numbers it puts down.

 

im doing the tuning myself, im going to start tinkering with it this week

 

Nice job..What puller fan did you use?

 

i think its a 14" hayden fan, but dont hold me to that

 

any updates

 

I ran my A1000's on the street and ran 8.50's on one pump.

 

yeah all kinds of crazyiness, lol first off i put about 1200miles on the car then went to the track and kept blowing boots off anytime it got above 9lbs of boost, so i bought better clamps and that fixed the problem there, so i went back to the track and the car would just fall on its face around 5200rpms even showing it was making 17psi, so i thought it might of been floating the valves so i bought a new set of pac 918 springs and while i was in process of changing the springs i decided to pull the pushrods and check them out, and thats when i encountered the problem. All the exhaust pushrods came out like they should have but none of the intake pushrods would come out, acted like they had welded theirselves to the lifters so i started taking everything apart so that i could pull the heads off, when i was loosening the intake manifold bolts i realized the pushrods would move, thats odd, it turned out to be that the intake manifold bolts was to long and went through the cylinder head and was holding the pushrods in place. i cant believe the car even ran, actually the car went a 12.3 @117mph with it not pulling above 5200rpms and losing all boost between gears. So after replacing the pushrods with new ones and putting shorter intake manifold bolts along with oil change, lets try it again. The car runs like a raped ape out on the street, its busting the tires lose in 3rd gear @ 70mph, so i go to the track and first pass out i blew a hole in a boot when i was in 3rd gear so i costed through and it went 12.0 @ 114, so thought i would try the miracle of a lot of duck tape to fix the hole and try it again. Next pass goes like this, i decided to launch hard, the car left out super hard, about 30ft. out the car slams the ground and the back driver wheel passes me, it turned out that i sheared off all 5 of the 1/2" arp wheel studs. I called moser and they said it was because i was running a wheel spacer because i had a set of z06 wheels with 305/35-18, so i now got to change the studs out which im doing tomorrow, replace the boot with the hole in it, and ive got to take it to the dyno and do some more tuning and see what kind of numbers i can get out of it. Hopefully i will get some kind of numbers up soon.
