Stock tach sucks balls. I've done many datalogs and even light acceleration it can be off by about 200 rpm in real time. Shift light is Def my next dash mod lol
I agree with the others about nitrous. I'm a turbo truck and I get it done in the 1/8th, but most people don't want to swap to a 727 with t-brake for that. If I didn't have the Trans brake and 2 step...
just an update. called cope earlier this week and he suggested adjusting the bands as it sounded like the lever arms had too much slack in them....the rear one would move almost half an inch and the...
make sure your harmonic balancer hasn't gone bad. i had one that started to seperate and kept backing bolts out due to engine harmonics. put a new one on and its been months since i had any issue.
...
well damn :fml:
fluid looked fine to me, didn't smell burnt. it was slightly darker than fresh fluid but not burnt, i think thats just from the transbrake launches....i've seen burnt fluid, its...
thanks for the replies. i'm going to call cope this week and see what he says. i've tried researching this issue and there are really no clear answers on it, could be anything from a vb issue, band...
we do the same here at our mexico....zero traffic roads in the county or back in industrial complexes, nobody to fuck up except ourselves.
i know several trucks running those on a 200 shot. not sure what they gap em to. i run them on my turbo truck as well.
needing some help figuring out what i may have wrong with this trans. i had just replaced my head gaskets and put a new intercooler on the truck, so i was out doing some datalogging to adjust the...
eh, a/a can be very effective with the right core. of course nothing beats water as a heat sink, i don't think anyone will argue that, but i do think most people just like the simplicity of an a/a....
i run both methanol and a/a, but being that i am turbo'd, methanol helps me more anyway due to the naturally higher iats from a heat soaked turbine housing. i'm not knocking an a/w setup bc it does...
just avoid the ebay cxracing ones unless you get the big core, like 4" thick. IMO, a vertical row intercooler would be the best bet for our cfm/hp needs, but the trade off is slightly less cooling...
That blower whine is a beautiful sound! Nice job man, she's coming along nicely :biggthumpup:
09 up hemi motors are stout in stock form and the 8 speed transmission is super efficient in torque delivery, you will lose pretty badly to one.
Nah, but I probably know the one you are talking about. These two are black and red. My buddy ray is the red one and his buddy Chris has the black one. Ray just got his new motor done....416 stroker...
If all goes according to plan, I am trying to make it out this year. I say it every year and then something stupid pops up and I can't make it. I have some pretty fast buddies going....700 whp '14...
Not sure mileage wise but when they start going bad you'll know it. It won't sound the same when running. Mine had a loud whine to it when the bearings started giving up. Make sure you look at...
They're pretty easy to do yourself if you are mechanically inclined and pay attention to detail. I rebuilt my old paxton without issue and it's basically the same thing.
Can't remember, it's been a while since I looked into it. I gave up on the idea because I decided to go hemi stroker swap next year.
It's always been about the same to me. I personally hate dealing with losing trans fluid and the mess that comes with it. When I put the motor back I just unbolt the trans from crossmember and work...
Valvoline maxlife.
I use 10w-40 part synthetic high mileage blend.
I plan to be there Friday and Saturday night. I'll be at the track mostly friday night. Cruise around Saturday if nothing breaks at the track :jester:
I have both a girdle and main studs. Studs are just insurance in my eyes. More clamp force and stronger. As far as the girdle goes, i'd also disagree that it's useless. Considering that some mains...
