So I don't have to hijack Lew's thread, pics of my "Whip"
 

Here's a few of the car. It's a bit on the dirty side, but it's been coooooold until recently. :icon_sant

Kinda want that coolant resevoir. I also considered going to the Cobra R tank, too, to get rid of it.

Looks Slow To me :toothy9:

lookin good bud!

Veerrrrrryyyyyyy Sllllloooooowwwwwww.:clock:

What's up Rick, you get that car running yet?

Looks nice. Are those Warrior wheels?

Yes and how in god's name did you end up with 252 posts already???? You are such a troll LOL!!!!

car will be running this weekend...got the motor in last night, and next goes the trans...not too much left to do. thanks for asking. how is yours running really?

I would no somthing is up with you car right a way i would not race ya.

Yeah it's a bit loud and the 315/50-15 drag radials are a dead give away :laughing6 Deffinately not a sleeper.

Rick the car is running pretty good. I was actually dissapointed with the power after the motor rebuild and boost increase at first, but then I unwadded the carpet from behind the gas pedal and found another 2 or 3 inches of pedal :). The other day I actually got into it "for real" in 3rd and I was REALLY supprised. I still have yet to launch the car or even get into boost in 1st and have only hit 5 psi in 2nd. I think it looks like my peak boost right now is going to be in the 16 or 17 psi range but I think I'm getting allot of belt slip.

good to hear things are going well.....what do you keep breaking? thats a lot of boost! What do you expect to run?

Oh nothing in particular keeps breaking, it's just one thing after another, you know how that goes. Mostly little things. I gess I should change that sig, it could be missleading and make it sound like I'm incompatent.
I'm really affraid to romp on the car out of the hole becasue my rear is stock save for the FRPP gears. I don't even have the tubes welded yet. I really don't know what to expect. I know the car is capeable of 10's but, I don't think it will be anywhere near that this season. I still have no cage and the car weighs about 3600 lbs. Not to mention the rear and trans are on borrowed time at this power level. If I can get some low 11.40's or so, I'll be happy. Once I get the rear done, I'll really get into it out of the hole and see if I can't get a 10 seond time slip before the end of the year.

sounds good dude. I am looking for high 12's na on my every day street tires....which I think is pretty good IMO. Looking for some good numbers with this setup, but I dont plan to run the car before october (new rear going in too)...that will have 31 splines and mosers...then bring on the dr's and let the fun begin

You know I never really got a good chance to run my car with the blower and drag radials. This Friday is gonna be a day of firsts.

your engine is smoking

bewst :jerk:

car looks great!

I've been on here for a long time Since last October.



Hey Richard Munch how'd you get 52 in two days?:thefinger
