Sounds like a beast, but surprised to see the hard fill. Will the car be driven a lot on the street? Curious if the hard fill would affect cooling...

 

[trbojo]

mostly street...i had the same concern..engine builder said it won't be a problem.. he said the main reason for doing it is to keep the cylinders from ballooning at higher boost levels...

So, did he hard fill it half way up or half way down? In other words, is it on the bottom near pan rail, or near the top near the head surface?

 

[trbojo]

down...never even heard of a top fill???

 

[Squid4life]

I have, but not very often. How soon until you have it running?

it's running....feels like a beast at 18psi on 93 and a little alky..was showing a little lean on the wideband at first but i was starting to get it dialed....then the trans blew up!!! conveter is trash, took the pump with it, and obviously everything else....out getting done now..
