so cars back together motor runs, just waiting for my stupid driveshaft!!! hoping tomarrow ill get it and then it will be time for me to get myself re aquianted with burning rubber and the noise of a healthy V8. For those that dont know, rebuilt the motor, poly mounts, threw in a windage tray, some hand porting on the heads, 7Q oil pan and coated my chinese aluminium typhoon knock off with a thermal barrier. Put a alum. flywheel in with a new centerforce clutch, and a T-56. Add that to my rear end with 3.90s that has like 1000 miles on it, and ive basically got a new car haha.

 

Cool man! A six speed is the last piece of my puzzle. Im still waiting to drive my car from when I had the IRS swap.. about a week before I get off crutches! lol. Its gonna be tuff getting used to the 3.73s.

What else are you going to do to your car?

 

as far as in the future? im going to hand build a forged motor, everything is going to have thermal barriers caramic coatings or dry film lubricant, it will be able to handle around 900 hp. Upgrade the t-56 to either a magnum or just upgrade the spline to 26. Add twin turbos, throw in some corbeau seats some other nifty interior gadgets. a few mixed body peices, along with a flat red paintjob and some choice carbon fiber. But hey thats like forever away. probebly like 30k worth of stuff.

I didnt have my 3.90s long befor ei broke the motor. So im still not used to them. never got a chance to learn how to launch. But for the most part street driving is just more fun even if you arent faster because you cant figure out how to not fry the tires haha
