how red is too red? cause this thing is RED!

 

btw, we know this kit was never really designed for what i am doing. i am talking to Cmotorsports and they are working on a couple of things to help free up the exhaust side for me.

 

Hey Parish, Can we use that on our website? I'll send it to Rick.

 

You should fry an egg on it!!

 

holy *****, dont touch that for a few days

 

what kind of matterial is the header made of?

 

Nicely done sir!! It seems to me like the easy fix would be to route some air through there. Have any artist friends who could come up with a bad *** body mod?

 

you can as soon as you have a truck that can come within 1 sec of my ET


the header is made out of stainless, i think it is 321.

How about a heavier truck and smaller turbo? Willing to adjust for weight?

Brady, tell Rick to send me a 76GTS

 

we can adjust for weight if you want but nothing else. i am not sure but i think a gts would give me a few hp as well

 

I see the same from my manifolds. Have you checked your EGTs? Mine even tend to glow at night during normal driving.

 

i haven't checked the egt's but i think i will get a gauge. exactly where would i want to put the sensor? right in the exhaust port or in the pipe right before the turbo?

 

I have always heard you want the pyrometer right in front of the turbo

 

I hate my pyro... always beeping and buzzing

Just out of curiosity, Jim, what's your truck weigh? 4800?

 

Autometer says right after the turbo, or right off the exhaust port for NA. I have mine right at the end of the stock manifold. I have been checking into it because my engine builder was concerned because of the temps i see. Idle is around 1000F and normal driving is 1200-1400F. Boost climbs usually up into the 1500 area, but i have seen 1600. This is measuring the backpressure side of the turbo. The A/F is basically good, so just checking around to see what others are seeing.

 

Just a little red.

 

Yup.

If that worried you you should looked as the truck was running!

 

curious as to how hot that is. seen that kind of stuff before but just never thought about it much
