Is this on a stock block or a built one Bob?

I think he's talking about the one here, maybe not, he's done a few:

If so, it a built engine. Scroll down a little for the setup. HTH

This was on a engine that we built. Callies stroker crank, Callies Compstar connecting rods and Diamond forged pistons. It is now a 382 ci engine, using a comp grind that we use, along with reusing the customer's ported heads, a Fast 90mm intake and a Nick Williams 90mm throttle body. Once the suspension is sorted out, this car should just keep getting faster and faster. Bob

Yea that is the truth Bob! I want to get into the 10's with a stock block and a STS. Then I think I will go your route and have the engine built, and up to a 72 or 76 trim turbo.

Yeap I agree... That Dyno run with my 60 Trim made 506RWHP. I am hoping for my high 10's now that I have a 67 on there. As soon as I figure out this boost issue I will be happy.

10's on a stock block are inbound.... give me a couple weeks

Boost pressure issue? What seems to be the problem, Longrange?

Grrr.... Well it started when I had my 60 trim swapped for the 67 trim, installed the 2-step, and the Cat replacement pipes.

The boost pressure gauge is acting very slow... you know when you rev the motor that gauge should rap out quickly (ie: 20lbs of vac to 0 and back)?

Well now mine does everything slowly... it only bounces between 20 and 15 vac when I rev her and when I am in boost... even though the car pulls hard the gauge builds slower and only builds up to 6lbs of boost.

Now before I swaped everything out... it was set at 8.5 lbs of boost. Just swaping the Turbo should not have changed how much boost was running should it have?

Well when we put a manual boos pressure gauge on the line at the T connector to see if its just the line to the gauge is crimped.... it acts the same as my gauge (slow boost reaction).

Now to trouble shoot it we have replaced and tested every line in the car one by one and every one holds vac. When we disconnect the line that runs to the back of the car to the boost controler and the waist gate... the manual gauge starts to act right (Quick response).

So I belive my problem is something in the back of the car.... the only thing that dosent hold vac in the back is the waist gate boost reference connection.... but that is not supposed to hold vac right? Or is that my problem?

Any input would be great!!!
