this was the car I built the motor for, stock cubed ls1 with 10.5:1 cr, ms4 cam, stage 2 5.3 heads, ls6 intake, stalled auto, all other supporting mods. I was spraying, sort of. did 2 high rolls, his trans isn't acting right in lower gears. first race he got the hit and put about 2-3 cars on me. 2nd race was worse, prolly 4 cars or so. however on the second race i looked at my afr's and it was pig rich, the gauge was maxed out at 10.0. not sure if the nitrous solenoid wasn't activating or not. then on the way home i tried it again and it was the opposite, it was super lean. so i gotta try and find my issue and rerace him. here's a video of the first race, the second race somehow got deleted off my phone on the way home??

Good runs and and honorable death with out a doubt! Chop chop on getting that a/f issue worked out and go rerun him! But that t/a is right damn nasty by the looks of it for sure.

Oh btw what was wrong with your trans a few weeks back when it puked some fluid??

Trans Am looks to be a strong runner!!

the converter seal blew out, I think it's because i had my race tune on which ups trans pressure, and i was going over 100 at the time where i had a mean vibration so the combination blew it out, thats why i haven't raced past 100 lately and i cant figure out what's causing the vibration.


but yeah i gotta figure out my issue, even with it working 100% i know i'd still lose. his car just put down 375 on a very low reading mustang dyno.

Looks about right Greddy. Good run..that's a tough opponent.

I think i can make it about 1 car closer after i get my nitrous tune in order. i just rewired the whole thing today and went out and did a couple pulls and it worked great every time except for shifting super late and pretty rich, about 10.5-11.0 afr's. if i can get the afr's to around 12.0 and get it to shift when it's saposed to hopefully i'll be good to go.

It'll help you a lot. Should take at least one car length out of the equation. You going to trying tuning out that shift problem?

ctgreddy

yeah i'm gonna try, it shifts perfect n/a, right at around 6300 so that's why i'm thinking it's just revving too fast for it to make the shift on time. if this doesnt fix it i dont really care, i'm trying to find someone to trade me a t56 for my trans so by next summer the car will be a manual and walla, no more shifting issues other than my slow *** shifting lol.
