some more progress pics. got the rear end in and now its time for all the supports. tomorrow should be fun.
haha, good eye! cool. I guess I probably would've tried to plumb into the stock filler.....but it probably doesn't really matter. looks badass, as always.
hmmm... well I gotta do stuff after 1:30pm.... might run out with the 2 boys and check it out if you are back shortly... I wanna see it in person
can someone fill me in as to WTF is going on insde that meth lab of a garage? It looks like you're creating a second Frankenstein! I heard from a few birdz that you were building this monster into a rwd drag car..? Andwhat happened to your giant turbo setup?
im re doing every thing pretty much. from turbo kit to chassis to suspention. same turbo with my 2.65 still though
so Rich was down... crap.. why didnt you tell me you could have bought my tires with ya from Patrick....
A lot, actually. If it was reasonable, many more people would do it. How many folks do you see running around with that in their car, especially if they are trying to spool something like a 16g?
that seems stupid to me to run on a 16g? what do you need a built motor for on anything smaller then a 35r for. the turbos are out of breath before the motor is pushed?
That's what I'm talking about, in reference to the post I quoted originally. No real need for it unless you are going fairly big. I'm not afraid to throw a 35R at my shortblock, but that would be the absolute limit, especially on my pistons. The $5k you'd spend on putting a 2.65 together would be better spent elsewhere unless you are trying to go for baller status.
That may be. But you understand what I'm getting at is that anything less than a proper sized snail for that application is a waste. And that opens up a whole other can of worms.
found more spots to weld. cut the notch in the x brace wrong and gave up for the time being... should go back out after i eat my steak
true dat... but you correcting spelling mistakes is like a eunuch teaching how to make a porn movie...
sweet.... let me know for sure... then I can try to have a little $$$ for ya troubles and any idea when you are thinking you may head down again??? I gotta get these all mounted up before it gets much colder...
not positive, probably wont be for a couple more weeks. I only get 1 weekend off a month and this was it.
