Did you start it on stock tune? I want to be able to start my T/A when my build is done but I dont want to burn a hole in my piston just having it idle.

Yep, you can. Mine ran like crap due to the injector scaling was way off. If it runs super rich, don't drive it or even let it idle too much. Gas in oil is bad recipe.

Still running my stock 6 speed. I am waiting on Spec to send me a shim for clutch so i can properly shift it. I MIGHT be switching to a TH350/400 setup very soon tho.

Yes, I did make a few attempts at the local 1/8 mile but it would not shift no matter what. Had to granny shift it. Here is a video... no time slip (tower lost slip), but I'm pretty sure I trapped about 100 or so. Pulled like a mofo..

I know alot of you guys have been asking for some video's and finally had some time with nice weather to shoot a few video's.

ENJOY!!

2nd and 3rd gear pull - 30mph - 100mph (Tire spin 2nd gear, shift early to 3rd)



1st gear and 2nd gear burnout, Should have stayed it in longer, mind ya these are 28x13.5x15 Hoosier QTP's



Wife narrating the aftermath. She's great!



And of coarse an inside the car video. Tires breaking loose in 2nd, granny shifted to 3rd (Wife in the car), pulled through 3rd.



Just a pic of me, ear to ear grin!!



Overall, I love this car!! Worth every minute building it!

Haha, the burnout video had me cracking up. Pretty much looked like you were doing an all wheel drive burnout. Bring that bish back to town soon.

Booo post it on YouTube so I can see it, having to live through an iPhone is not easy for media! Can't wait for me and you to line en up I'll try and get one race in the 76 before I tear it down again for the bigger turbo

Lol! Yeah Brad, when I 1st started to burnout, the damn thing turned on me but I thought, hell I'll peddle it and swing the butt around, shift into 2nd and get some smoke rolling of the hides!! Sure was fun!

I think it might be one of my front calipers holding better than the other, I dunno. Posi seems to be holding fine and works like a mofo so far.

Sup sucka!

Thanks man, glad to see yor making some decent power aswell. Your EVO would probably walk on your old vette. When you gonna let me put a junkyard 5.3 with a turbo in your vette? Labor is free.... . .

You know how we clarks do it, we don't f around.

Hows the baby?

[WhiteWind]

Sh*t man I don't know what I plan to do with the vette we are trying move down KY if we do I'll have a shop in back I can play with it.

Yeah the Evo fun for sure. If vegas does well putting bigger turbo on it should make good power then but who knows.

The baby man his good getting better neocate formula no joke $45 for 14oz. Been buying it off ebay cheaper. Some state cover by insurance but Wy don't so people panhandle it on there lol.

Man I don't know when next time I'll come home man but you better not sell this one keep F'ing car lol. Keep good work up man!!!

UPDATE

Been about 3000 miles, still running strong. Have turned it up to 12psi a few times and held up just fine except for the serp belt comming off under high rpms. Going to fab up a tensioner to correct it.
