Fast Freddy,
After you wash you car, drive down the street and look at where the first dirt ends up...right in the center at the license plate and on the rear facia. Lou may have something there. There is a rubber flap that releases the cabin pressure when you close the doors (AB comment). I...
Hey guys,
I have 2 10 pound bottles and run on drag radials all the time. I have a split cam for nitrous that comp cut for me and I check my lash on a regular basis. Maintenance is not the problem. There are a whole bunch of us here in St.Louis that street race on a regular basis. It is not...
Hey Guys,
I had a little problem with my car the other night while horsing around. I had a T&D rocker break in half on the exhaust side of # 8. This resulted in the pushrod dropping into the block and hitting the connecting rod which pushed it into the bottom of the piston. It looks like a...
Steamroller,
The Dakota valve actually is a larger piece with a cannister made on to the valve...sort of like a vacuum reservoir. When you go to WOT, it has a small amount to keep the doors in the position that you select. It is still a one way valve like the factory piece..no change. The a/c...
Hey guys,
Take the wire to the compressor clutch and add a 2 way on/off switch...you could do it on the power or the ground side, it doesn't matter. Set your temp control to a/c all the time, this will engage the high speed fan relay to kick the fans on then turn the switch off to the clutch to...
The reason is in the one way check valve behind the radio. Replace the valve with a check valve from a Dakota and it will not do it any more. At wide open throttle the vacuum drops to zero or near that and vacuum is what keeps the blend door in the position for the vents...defrost is the default...
I love the way Belanger puts flanges on everything...it makes the install so easy. They are very cool guys there and have an excellent support staff when you have any issues. Sorry, I didn't want to steal you thread, I just wanted to comment on Lou's product.
Later,
Joe
Mine broke with 641 and 820. One of my customers broke with 705 and 920. In both cases the input shaft gear and balance gear had the teeth taken off. I broke the input shaft in half in my car also. I think it depends on how hard you shift the car...I am hard on parts. I speed shift my car and...
Tony,
I still can't believe that happened ... I was there for the taking. I forget to turn the nitrous on and I am watching you drive away...and then you just start slowing down. I almost drove into the wall looking over at you as I went by with that blistering 12.40 something pass. That was...
Hey,
I posted that exact thing on another thread about the flywheel bolts falling out...I have already found one also. This is going to be a problem, I can see it coming.
Joe
I am coming....I'll just pass on making my house payment this month. Ha Ha I have to move my picket schedule around, and pack up the peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. See you guys there.
Joe
Hey Skip,
I have almost stopped using SPEC for clutches when a t56 is involved, 9 out of 10 have the exact problem you describe. I can put in a centerforce and I have a perfect pedal without bleeding the slave again. Spec will tell you to add a shim behind the slave to move it closer...what a...
Hey guys,
I had one with the flywheel bolts loose and ready to fall out. I have heard from another dealer that he has had the same problems. His was an issue with clutch engagement if I am not mistaken. If the flywheel is moving it could cause the slave to take in air if the disc and plate are...
Dry NOS
Wet Nitrous Express
Propane BTR / NOS
There is a company here on the board called racetested , but I have never used them...Rich ( V10MOJO ) has, you may want to ask him his opinion. I have had the best luck with Nitrous Express.
Joe
Matt,
All of my viper set ups have been on stock heads so far. I will get some dyno graphs together and e-mail them to you later. The only thing I can say on the wet/dry difference is that I may have been a bit more aggressive on the timing curve...usually the propane set ups make more power...
Matt,
8 pounds is no problem to spray on right out of the hole in every gear. Make sure you have a good tire or you are wasting your time. Your bottle pressure will make all the difference in the world. At 900 or less you won't feel much of a change, but at 1150-1200 it will leave like a...
Matt,
I cycle the n20 from 3000-5800 rpm and only over 5.5 psi of boost with the vec 2. Then I use the vec 2 lead with a wot switch to complete the ground circuit for the n20 solenoid. That way you have all of your attention on driving instead of holding a nitrous switch...if you lift on the...
Hey David,
I may be out this race...As of Saturday, I am on strike and jobless. My dealer along with 61 other dealers voted our contract down. I am trying to justify spending my house payment on racing for the weekend. Let me sleep on it one more night and I may see you there...I know Kevin...
Matt,
Yes the blower and nitrous work hand and hand. The nitrous lowers the intake air charge which makes the blower more efficient. The cooler the incoming air the more power you will make. Once the air is cooled down you can get more aggressive with your tune, but you have to be very careful...
Matt,
Yes, you can use the vec 2 to engage your nitrous. I have only used a dry set up with my customers blowers instead of a wet kit or propane. You can make a nitrous card to supply the additional fuel while you are on the bottle and use your blower card the rest of the time. The first set up...
Hey guys,
Yes the pins suck in the diffs, but the spider gears are breaking also. I have been finding mine with the pin still in tact and the teeth stripped off the side spider gears...I think it is poor metal quality. It doesn't seem to matter if it is modded or not, I have had several broken...
I have a red '04 that I can't give away at invoice and they are asking $2000 over sticker. The market must be better in Arizona than it is here in Missouri. If you know anyone interested send them my way. I have to move this car, we have a black Mamba on the way and we don't have the space for...
Re: > Most powerful SRT-10\'s -- who has them? <
Viper D,
It is a NX wet kit on a 100 shot. Skip, I am considering both of your options, just trying to figure out which route to go.
Later,
Joe
Re: > Most powerful SRT-10\'s -- who has them? <
Viper D,
This is a heads and cam car with a small shot of nitrous. I put in new rods and pistons for the supercharger that is on its way...hopefully 10-12 pounds plus a 50 + shot. We keep breaking spider gears in the differential, so we are...
