We had a minor set back as the tranny had an issue with the input shaft so it was stuck in a gear and would not shift out of it. It was sent out and rebuilt, car should be ready for dyno this week. Here is a pic of the motor 95% done as well as the T56. Pics were taken with my camcorder so it may look a little wierd.

 

Oh my god man, that looks incredible. I am so jealous!

 

its almost ALIVE! I bet you cant wait!

 

Its been a long time waiting but Im not in a hurry just want it done right. I told the shop owner to keep it for a couple of days and make sure nothing is wrong with it. Since I had a bad experience with another shop Im more in the mode of whats going to break. Hopefully everything will go good and Im sure it will as they have a bunch of great people at DAgostino couldnt be happier.

 

what a beast !

 

nice. i have been wondering for a lil while, couldnt you have used the cobra lower with the Sullivan upper? i have seen that intake lower on other cobras with turbo kits.

 

It would make sense if I had a Cobra but since I had previoiusly installed a 98 alum block I could of gone either way. The Sullivan might give me the advantage but we will see when we get back the numbers.

 

looks amazing!!! Can't wait to see some #'s and hear this beast/ see it run!

 

looks nice...should put down some serious power...what are you expecting with race gas? well first is what boost are you going to run for a race (dyno queen numbers) tune. 650-700? maybe?

 

Man that is going to be a fast as car. Howmuch boost are you going to run on the D1SC?

 

Not sure what it will do since we have done so many things. I am personally expecting over 600 rwhp anything else would be great. It has ported heads and a free flowing exhaust which will be hard to see how much PSI it will give since boost is simply a measure of backpressure since we have opened it up from the intake and exhaust side.

I want this to be one level below a full race car where it would be fun to drive on a daily basis and doubt I will put race gas in it but maybe for the dyno to see what it can do. Some of the choices I have made some may not agree with but the objective was not to build the fastest car but something over 600hp thats streetable if that makes sense.

 

I still want to drive it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Haha, you and me both.

 

whens this beast going to take to the streets all ready?

 

i think most cars that have over 500-550 to the wheels arent really streetable LOL. thats from my experience with a cobra that had 560 hp. non the less though that **** would be badass on the street...nothing like cruisng on the highway and smoking the tires when you want to hit some boost

dont take forever breaking that motor in either. the break in tune should be pretty stout at any rate.

 

Should be days unless something else comes up but Ill check in tommorow and see what the timeline looks like plus try to get a vid of it running.

 

Heres a vid
