So happy to know it will actually be put to use on a track behind some good power.

I want to test before Frank's thing. so if the driveshaft blows we have time to fix. also would like to have a general idea what the car will do and then maybe have a guy like impalex take it for a legit pass like he did trixie.Quote:

was beginning to put this rear together and noticed the inner seal on the passenger side was mangled and out of place, like severely. don't know why. also bearings had a little feeling of play, so we decided to have it sent to a shop that specializes in performance rears for new bearings/seals and reassembly

car made 471whp 604rwtq on a land and sea dyno yesterday, no changes since ltxtech dyno day. either the trans is slipping or something with converter. owner of shop said it is a 600whp all day car if it would actually read right and not spin/flash converter on dyno
gotta get it to the track.

I see I fat fingered the video description lol. The car got violent on the first run. I think power is being left on the table. Ask Osie about the waste gate idea that the owner had.Quote:

supercharger so small for a gate, best thing would be to tighten stall up so rpm can't fly sky high building more boost, or adjust blow offQuote:

Thats great. @harner said it would prob read a bit lower than yhe dynojet... which read 500 rwhp...Quote:

the torque number is off though, been reading about how it's reading and I think taking 50 off the torque and adding it to hp is logical due to the converterQuote:

the motor naturally aspirated made 490/490 on engine dyno with smaller heads, so motor is making probably 510 crank hp WITHOUT boost. add 10-12psig to that number and the converter/trans are soaking alot upQuote:

finally got @popo8 9" rear in the car. need to make new brake lines and waiting on a 1000hp chromoly driveshaft. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...7e0f3d664b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...b6d6f7fbca.jpg

U know i have a chromoly ds here in my garage, just needs a different length yoke and good to go.
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
I'd be more interested to see what it does at the track than on a dyno
we are, hence the rear upgrade. also, it's gonna get a new procharger Inlet too to get rid of the plastic restrictive one, I've been reading alot about that being a choke point in these cars. technically, it should go low 11's high 10's with a good driver and tractionQuote:
