What's everyone doin' to get there car ready this season?
For us,
Car got re-painted. We have a new set of M/T 28x10.5-15's in the rear and a new set of M/T 27.5x4.5-15's for the front. The best 60' was 1.36 last year on 6 year old slicks. I am in the process of replacing the rear brake shoes with a set of four primaries I got from Jack along with the heavy duty wheel cylinders. I will be replacing the hardware back there too, springs etc. I am also replacing the front rotors and pads also, I noticed that I had pretty good cracks where the pads make contact with the rotors. There wasn't enough left on the rotor to resurface it so I got new stock style drilled and slotted rotors. I also purchased a Co2 kit for boost control that I also have to install. Hopefully with that kit I will be able to get over 22psi. Just need a little help hookin' it up... I will post up pics after I have it all together.:cool: |
->This year, I'll still be using the same "short block" assembly (T/A block, Eagle crank, Carillo rods..) as last year, BUT with some new Champion heads and intake manifold, a new cam, a larger turbo, 4" downpipe from Brian, a "Cotton's" huge front-mount intercooler and electronic boost control...That's about it for now.:cool:
-> I've already bought some new wheels for the street (Billet Specialties's "Street Lites"), installed a steering wheel-mounted trans brake button, and made a bracket for my "Cotton's" electronic boost controller...Oh yeah...I hand-painted the frame too!...:D Claude. :) |

Just pulled the 10 bolt out of the car. Got to build that new 12 bolt that Jack gave me an Awesome deal on:D:D. Getting rid off the drum brakes on the back and going to wilwood to match the front. I let the new guy Kevin talk me into this;)
Down pipe is on the way to Cottons for some repair work. Got a little smash in it from an incedent at the track. Jack you gotta get that baby fixed up for me super quick. I really need Brian to do his magic again for me. Summer is coming. |

I saw your thread about your 60' droppin off. If you would have 60'd your best of 1.38 on that 9.92 pass it would have been a 9.4x!!:eek: There has to be something you can clean that slick off with. Maybe contact the manufactor of the tire? Still a 9 second run though! Congrats!:cool: [QUOTE] Quote:
Hopefully I won't be needing to go that route with the rear this year. |

You get more gear choices with a 12 bolt over the 10 bolt:D. |
