Yea. Well, most of these pictures will be what is going into my car, or whats been in my car ect. I just got my camera, so I figured I'd post pictures of how they turned out ect.

 

Idk whos transmission that is. But thats my 8.8 31 Spline Axles, Ford Racing 31 Spline Posi

 

looks good


what shot are you going to be running on your new motor and what shot did you run before you were "forced" to upgrade

 

75 when I blew it up. 150 now.

 

nice

 

oh what gears you gonna run?

 

4.10s will go in. Currently the gears are 3.55's.

Gears and the cover are the only things I will be changing on that rear end. Hopefully it holds up if/when I launch on the bottle. If not...off to a 9"

 

looking good, this will surely be one bad v6 when you get it rebuilt

 

You should never require a 9". Even if you do I would stray away if you could. I know they're strong but they're heavyyyy. The 8.8" should be more than enough since you're not pumping out 1000hp.

 

HP wouldn't be the issue with the rear tq would. And it doesn't necessarily take a massive amount to break one. They make a 9" that isn't extremely heavy.

Things have a tendency to break when you launch off nitrous..we'll see what happens

 

Intial tuning done by Justin @ VMP





TB is a 65mm I don't want to go bigger due to CA emissions concerns, visual will kill me. This thing will have to be pulled off during inspection, no stamp, 70mm would be more difficult then that.

 

 

 

very nice cant wait to see the dyno when done

 

That's awesome that you are actully getting **** done. You hear alot of people talk **** about what they are going to do, but you are actully getting **** done.

 

Sweet! Ever thought about getting a wideband a/f gauge and ditching the narrowband?

 

Nice

 

one could turn that narrow band gauge into a wide band with one of these nifty LC-1 kits sold by innovate motorsports.

 

Yea, but then again I had no choice, lol. But I figured, I'm not going to stop racing, so I may as well get faster while I'm at it.

And yea, thought about the wideband, the A/F off the nitrous is what i'll be worried about, but with the tune and the proper jetting I should be ok. We'll see though.

Motor was pulled out of the car today, more pics to come.

 

 

 

THE DAMAGE

 

ouch, broken ring land?

 

ring was still in tact..thats my piston...

 

obviously your piston is fucked!

all i was asking is if your ring land broked which to me is very apparent but to you not so much!

hope you're not building that new stroker

 

is that piston the result of sprayin the **** out of it?

 

Uh that stroker is being built. And the ring from what we saw of it yesterday was fine. The piston itself just had the nice break, the other two cylinders next to it chomped up the broke peice and it then (we believe) went out the exhaust.

 

Well, it is, BUT, I didn't run the nitrous properly. I was untuned, and we think I went too lean when I did this..

 

awesome, at least a rod didnt punch through the block

 

Yea, thats about the only thing I will have not replaced too, lol..
