  • A small update, got the bosche 044 fuel pump on, so added to the walbro 255 that gives me a serious 55lph punch of fuel! No more fuel issue, so as long as i run my ice bath, i should be sneaking into the 10's this week!

    thanks for looking

          • I wish, the frame on this thing is beefy! its about as light as its gonna get. The last thing i did was put skinnies on it, and that almost completely offset the weight of the turbo setup....

            • Well went back to the track last night, still disappointed. I got some 275 wide drags, but didn't have time to put them on my rims, sooo, with the 235's on again, she went .05 seconds faster at 11.24@131mph. This was on about 13lbs. My computer died on me so I couldn't log the run. Tune is good, I short shifted 1st so it wouldn't blow the tires off, spun just a tad going into second, but I will be forever limited until I upgrade my Tranny.....

              I'm digging the 1/8th mph, was hoping to see more of a gain on the back end. I think it's time to go back to my 3.23's(3.70's currently)

              Thanks for looking

              • with a 6 speed, your already in fifth with the 70's arent you? maybe sixth at 130(not familiar with high HP LS cars)

                • Ha ha, No my car is a manual valve bodied auto... it's just a 700r4, I really need to upgrade the tranny, I just dont have the money right now. For reference, My buddy ran 10.86@126mph last night in his third gen camaro with an LS Turbo, and I trapped 131.99 on my last run, So when I do get a good tranny, as the car sits I should be running down around 10.20-10.40.

                  • Ok, update since last time. A couple days ago I purchased a whole set of MKIV rims, 17X8 in front, and 17X9.5 in the rear. They aren't on right now, but look pretty good!!

                    I ran the car today, it was 90+ degrees at the track. Once again did slightly better. Same 2.0 60', which will never change on this setup....

                    Car went 11.16@132.5mph. I need to throw my 3.23's back in the rear, as I was hitting the rev limiter crossing the finish line(6800rpm)

                    Here are the slips for the day. This was peaking 15lbs but holding 14lbs. Also hit 104.6mph in the eighth!





                    thanks for looking,
