Shake down passes
These are from Friday, busted my tail all week to get the car wired and plumbed so i could run it this week. Have not tuned it yet, but it is a 6.0 with the Trex and carbed. Needs allot more converter and i have not pulled any weight really.
It is a 80 coupe with the 85/86 nose i wanted. TH400 with a revmax 4500 converter, 3.73 gears. This is one of two converters i have got from them, they work but their stall speed sucks and i am not going to send it back for a restall and play that waiting game for 200$.
Could not see the shift light and out of 9 passes, i think i only had 1 successful 1-2 shift.
Here is a couple from the stands, the video is not great because he didnt wipe the lens but it sounds fantastic.
Reduced to 3 inc from 3.2 collectors, X pipe and the small race bullets dumped:
Have plenty left to do before i put the nitrous on the car, hope you guys enjoy.

I have always wanted to do a Chevy fox, but never had the motivation to buy all the pasts. I got this from a Htownracing member for a grand, came with a AJE K member, so i got their mounts. Came with a ton of suspension and other goodies, it was too good to pass up.A big head start. The crap part is that i am going to have to run a spacer to keep heat out of the carb, so i am going to have to get a hood or some scoop. Sucks because i really liked rocking the stock hood. LOL.

Yep, and I never had a reason to look into them.

Thanks Duy, I have nothing invested in this thing is the best part. Selling my AR for 1600 covered most of the cost. Lol
Now, if only I can get half as fast as you!
