More New Toys.... Well i recieved my new toys on thursday and i had alot of work to get done yesterday..... before i go intot he toys ill tell you guys something.... hese 8 rib belts take alot more crap with them when they go then the 6 rib belts..... Now its not the the SDCE kits fault the belt broke.... i had left my belt zip tied hanging on the car while i was waiting for parts to arrive for emy FMIC install and somehow the belt touched the Alt. Pulley and ate into is about 2 ribs deep...... so i was seeing 6 psi still with a 6 rib kinda.. 
The belt started to fray but i ran it anyways..... it finally broke... at 6500 rpm... and grabed the wire going from the Alt. to the battery and bit into it cutting a 2" gash of open wire......... So i had to fix that and put my other new toys on..... my 3.4" blower pulley and my LM-1 wideband....... Driving around town the car whistles so much louder......... it does sound like a street sweeper coming down the street....... Ill be going back the the dyno reall soon... from liitle blips of the throttle it looks like im running pretty rich... 11.2:1 A/F. Now at idle the car is mid to high 14:1 A/F..... is that bad???? Ill head to Hoston for a retune as soon as im back from my Trip to Cali here after the 1st of the month.

working pretty good......... Trapped 126MPH and 99.98 mph in thr 1/8..... shitty 60' and a i think the tranny is starting to act up......... drove it there and back 350 miles............ it needs to go on a diet too 3940 lbs with me in it and the pass. seat and the stereo and jack in it......... time to save my $$$ like you said...im looking at a ART CARR TH-350.... i like there warranty alot better then Trans King.... called them both. Trans King is 90 days on the tranny and 1 year on the verter.... Art Carr was 1 yr on the tranny and 2 years on the verter made to fit a LS1 flywheel...... so its a tranny and a rearend and a set of slicks and im in the 10's with that 126mph trap speed.... how long till yours is up and running???
