Looks great! Looks like some good progress!

 

Trying, it looks(and we did) make a lot of progress just STILL have a ton. The little stuff is going to eat up all of the time.


Battery in the trunk, re wire the wide bands, injector clips, TB plug, boost controller, mount the shifter, wire gauges.....we will keep the wheel to the stone and see what we come up with.

 

I am starting on day 3 on a Kenne Bell S/C kit, and I hear you, its all about the details.
I probably have a full 8+ hours today before I am done. Hopeful it wont spill into tomorrow.
I have 24 hours into it, with 6-8 to go, and 17 of those hours so far have been on the wiring, vacuum system, PCV system, intercooler...etc., and xo on.


I admire you guys for attacking a from scratch build...true hot rodding!

 

AWESOME!!!
Looks like she's about ready to rock.

 

Getting close guys, and thanks! We have never taken on a task quite this big. The old supercharger setup was a lot, A LOT easier.


We got more work chipped away. Getting close to a mid week fire up if we can find a tuner to scale the injectors.

Got the cross member and DS in.



How Sunday ended.

 

Getting close! This is awesome!

 

It's been a long road, we are getting down to the final nitty gritty end. This weekend will be our "zero hour" as we NEED a tuned to even start the car as the injectors are so big it'll wash the motor.


You will see this car if you attend OC Cruise Week or go to Cecil or MIR.

 

may be going to OC cruise week, just not sure if I'll be able to get off or not. If I do I'll try and say hey.

 

We will be down Thursday-Monday.....look for the loudest group of kids haha

 

Got the intake, MAF, trans cooler under pass. headlight, oil re-locate under driver headlight.
Tonight some wiring needs to be done, fender liners go in, fab a bumper support, put the bumper on, fluids go in....check everything over. Then maybe fire it up Wednesday night, the tuner said the car will be fine to IDLE with the injectors that are in it.

 

After a LONG 12 hour Saturday, a lot of curse words it's running!

Still have to hook nitrous up, boost controller, clean up some stuff, tighten things but it looks like things are looking up with 11 days to go, we have maybe another few hours tightening everything and checking.

Boost controller(AMS 1000 and BS3 coming)


Trans cooler/ABS delete


Brake lines all re-run


5 gallons of fresh 93



And a little video is uploading of it's first try/startup

 

The day is growing near, anybody have horsepower guesses?


E85 and 30ish lbs

 

1250?

 

Im guessin 580-650 hp and near same tourqe range. Complete guess though

 

The turbo is only rated for that, the car may break 1100 on the nitrous....but 1250 seems high to me.

The old setup made 756rwhp, if this car made(not a shot at anyone) less then 800 it will be a complete failure IMO.


The "plan" is 1000rwhp(give or take) and 8.99 or better in the 1/4 mile.

 

Whoops lol it was an out of the blue guess, not an educated one. I shouldve read back through

 

HAHAHA no worries! This this is built by a few kids we should be grateful if itll even idle

 

989 at the wheels, 9.01 qt the track

 

I see what you did here

 

Good luck man I hope you're all happy (well at least satisfied lol) in the end. Cool build with a lot of work no doubt.
