As most of you know my nephew died in a crash in a buddies T-Type back in July. His parents gave me his car, and I decided to finish off what he was dreaming about doing with his car instead of just putting it back together. He had a stage 2 on center block and a 3.59" stroker crank, he had finished college, landed a good job, and was going to build his GN up to be nasty. He was finally escaping being trapped in the bang for the buck catagory of a college student. This is what I had already, purchased, or have on order:
4.1 Stage 2 on center block with no damage or sleeves, which is
actually .070" below the standard 4.1 stage bore. (its at 3.930")
BMS 3.59" stroker crank turned 20/10
6.5" Carrillo rods
BRC pistons
PTE solid roller cam
Crane solid roller lifters
Milodon gear drive
3 stage Weaver bros. dry sump oiling system
Chapman ported stage 2 heads
Crane roller rockers
Edelbrock tunnel ram converted to fuel injection
ATR coated twin turbo headers
dual ball bearing 61 turbos (GT 35R compressors) with P-trim turbine wheels
and 4 bolt .68 a/r turbine housings
A pair of 1000 hp liquid intercoolers, one for each turbo
Barry Grant king sumo fuel pump
160 # injectors
Weldon regulator
Big stuff 3 wide band ecu
MSD dis 4 ign amplifier
Built turbo 400 with Coan brake
Art Carr 9" torque convertor (should stall around 5000 rpm @ 10#)
Weld pro stars with front runners and good year 30x10x15's
Fiberglass cowl induction hood
If you look at that list you can say off the top: Stage 2 headed stroker motor with twin dual ball bearing turbos, dual liquid intercoolers, tunnel ram intake, solid roller cam, and dry sump oiling. I think the car being built up to these specs would even exceed my nephews imagination. My nephew was my very good friend and anything short of the absolute baddest / coolest set up I could come up with would not do.
This car is not being built to make banzi passes. Its being built as a memorial to honor him. The car will only make low boost 9 second passes. I can not afford to maintain a car at the 8 second level. My only performance goal for the car is to break 150 mph in the quarter. NHRA requires the car to have a parachute installed if you break 150 mph. If the car winds up with a chute installed because its fast enough to be required to have one you can say:
Is it cool.....
Twin dual ball bearing turbos, liquid IC's blah blah blah.... Yep it's cool
Is it NASTY.....
They made me put a parachute on it..... Yep it's NASTY
Is it street legal....
As long as you dont talk to an emission inspector... Yep!
Is it fast on pump gas....
STFU!
