87 T low option car . Weight 3200 :)
Motor is fresh with 175 m.i. Comp 218/218 - .30 Je's- Polished rods crank etc. - RJC Girdle with scraper- Good wide bearings - VPE Stg. 3 Heads with matching intake, solid shafts with RJC shaft supports an new rockers- TA adj oil psi front cover- Precision upper an TB 70 m.m. combo-Double roller- RJC deep pan-RJC head gasket kit probaly more but this is the main stuff in motor.. Tranny- Century built with trans brake an 9/11 3200-3400 stall with Art Carr deep pan. Suspension- ATR rear bar with Hr's upper an lowers with Ta rear girdle an KYB's whole front suspersion is tied togetther with Kirban braces upper an lower. Fuel- Siemen 72's on Racetronix hot wire inj. harness with 340 on Racetronix hot wire. "need DP I know". billet adj reg. Cas FM with 3" piping. Turbo - Te-45a. Exhaust- 3" TH-DP going into 4" single exhaust made by me an bud all wrapped with exhaust wrap including headers. Dual spals with Micale radiator. Translator+ with Extender extreme. Marks 4" cold air with 4" MAF pipe. Theres more but this is the just. What ya think?? Gonna wait till around 1000 m.i before the track to make sureeverything is good an broke in. Looks like it will be a while considering how hott it is. Car runs really good had it to 5-8 lbs trying to seat the heads for retorque an it freaking goes like mad, an I have been in some fast tr's. Im sure it helps a lot being a lightweight car!!
 
ok

well lets just say hi 10's!!! I have seen similar combo's with mid 10 sec #'s just like to hear from someone personally.. :biggrin:
 
Id take the header wrap off your headers, they collect moisture and will rot out your stainless steel headers.... I know stainless doesnt rust, but ive seen a pair of stock headers go paper thin from someone who had them wrapped with that header wrap...

10.72 at 127 if you have a good convertor and a 1.55 sixty foot :biggrin:

ok

I will assume you got this from a similar combo!! what boost did you do this @??
 
My combo is similar to yours. I went 10.74 on 26# boost and reds 106 chip almost 2 years ago. Mph was only 122 / shifted to 4th and got 6 degs retard and was a little lean. Went 6.79@100.4 in1/8 on that run with 1.50 60ft. Bob.
 
Your combo is relatively close to mine except for the heads...but you can see what I ran in my sig...that was 20PSI boost with a TE62...have a 70GTQ now but no new times...should be able to run faster with same boost...if you're planning on running in the 10's I would highly suggest getting a double pumper...I know many have run 10's with one pump but not worth the cost of a new engine...IMO...what intercooler are you using?
 
Hi

I am running the same one as you are... I feel that with a DP an 28-30 lbs of boost it should be in the 10.60-70 range.. Which will make me realy happy :smile: ..
 
I would think you can run those numbers with much less than 28-30PSI boost especially at 3200lbs...my car weighs 3700 with me in it...a lot of it is in the heads though...mine are ported about as much as possible...as I stated though I wouldn't try to run 10.6 with a single pump...I think you're asking for trouble..

Mine hasnt made it to the track since i put it together, the tranny and convertor are bad.. need to get them fixed.

I did base the times off of what Bobs rare 6 car did here in KC, but he has a Q trim exhaust housing for extra pull, but doesnt have a lockup convertor.

I assume your car is much lighter than Bobs rare 6 car,with a lockup convertor your may get about 3-4 more MPH, and you should be able to hit 10.7 with 26psi of boost with only a 1.55 sixty foot because it only weighs 3200 LBS
Get the boost up and get a heck of a launch and let us know how you do :biggrin:

Hi

Yes I know I need a double pumper, an I will have one beforeI got to the track.. Still trying to put miles on it an get it broke in.. Guess I will go with a reds I hear its the one to get.. I definitely feel this will be a mid 10 sec car mainly cause of the weight factor an i think I got the parts to do it.. Good point on the boost I forget doesn't take that much with a lighter car.. :D
