Whats the Combo

Looks like Jeff's car. Glad to see he got it runnin. His car is running a Vortech S-trim no Aftercooler, 306, Alum. Heads, Downs shortbox, 3.73, 42lb injectors, etc, etc. The car runs like a monster, and destroys T-5's at will I have seen that car go 1.5 60ft with no suspension. And on the street he rolls with 18's in the front and 20's in the rear. One nice car!

Are you sure thats jeffs car ron?

It looks like his Rims in the front.. But I thought his car was a 92 or so.. Not a 90. I guess the SN could be wrong.. Also the 60s seem high for a 11.2 run and 124 mph. I duno.. Hes got the C-4 auto in there so I dont know how that effects the 1/4 mile since i'm a stick guy.

Yes it is his car. 90GT is his brother Scott. Yeah his 60ft's are probably down, cause of the auto. He needs to go with a trans-brake, and that thing would be a monster off the line!
 
Posted by hidden (Member # 486) on :
 
Scott I thought you said he was running 36s or 30s not 42s...

You put that blower on yet?

Gawd I want it back.. hehe.. Er.. Guess i'll get one again in a 6 months or so..

Dave
 

Posted by 90GT (Member # 3) on :
 
Ron-The 60fts should come down when it stops spinning the tires out of the hole, and a continental converter might not hurt either, lol.

Dave-He just stepped up to the 42s and also a victor intake. The blower still sits in the same spot I put it the day I brought it home. So it might still be there in 6 months, ha.

Welcome to the club!

Its funny how they never give him a hassle for running a 11 sec.. They hassle me for everything.. Is he slipping a 20 to that bitch of a employee.. You know the one.. The mean bitch that works there in the staging area.. ERRR.. shes the only reason I dont go much anymore.

Dave

Scott: Tell Jeff to come pick this converter up. Its a deal he can't pass up.
 
Posted by 90GT (Member # 3) on :
 
Mike-It depends on how much you drive the car. Jeff rarely drives his plus his street tires are almost 28" tall so he has a little less rpm than you would on the freeway. A tko would be more streetable but would cost more too so you have to decide which is important to you. The easiest way to tell if you could deal with no OD would be to do as Sawson suggested, drive around in 4th.

Dave-He did get a warning after the second pass. But Mary the lady you spoke of no longer works at the track.

Ron-Will do.

Scott.. - Really... Cool.. Dumb bitch. Maybe I should start going again..

I need to get my Wideband up and working so I can use it.. Right now the speedbrain is lost.

Yeah.. Some could say that.. But when it works.. It works.. And you can see whats going on while driving. Its a step up from my EEC-tuner. Plus I can run the 55lb injectors without a hitch.

Yeah, I just fired up the software for the first time in over a year. The spark table still makes the program crash, but it has all the major controls needed to tune, but not as many as the EEC-TUNER. If Matt Happy was a better bussiness man, I'm sure the product would have been more popular. It came out around the same time of the EEC tuner (late 98/early 99 if I remember right). Speed Brain had much more pizzas and hype. Even 2 years ago few knew of the EEC-TUNER. Look at how the tables have switched in almost 4 years.

-Sawson

ps- regarding your 'poll' on the corral... I'm just waiting for one of those fools to tell you to get AFR's and a custom cam.... good for 117+ mph they claim! LOL

Yeah I would agree. What version are you using of the Speedbrain Software. Mine never crashes. My EEC-tuner is great as it has many things to change compared to the EEC-TUNER.. I just got it back from the Data Log upgrade and haven't even tried it.. I may never. Its a Backup incase the Speedbrain ever dies on me. Gotta always be ready.

-----------
This is for Scott.. Heres a simple math to show Jeff.

Injector Size = HP * BSFC
------------
8


Hes running about 525 to the Rear or so. With 42 lb injectors.. Thats about 600 HP at Flywheel..

600 * .5
-------------
8

This comes out to 37 lb injectors.. And thats 100% DC. Typically if you wanted to run no more than 80% DC should be

600 * .5
------------
8 * .8

= 46 lb injectors would be needed.

Now you can see why I melted #7 and #8 down.. The Data log shows 100% dc for the last 500 rpm up to 6000 rpm. Not good.

Now if hes running race gas i'm not quite sure how that effects the ratio. It must be helping alot..

i thing the decision has been made, go with a new clutch at the moment, and ill do the seals on the t5, and throw it in. I called d and d and he said the only diference between the tko and the 3550 is the shafts supposedly the tko hold 50 more ft lbs all internals are the same. So ill run the t5 until it breaks and go with the 3550 afterwords. That way i wont have to replace a clutch again.
 
Posted by hidden (Member # 486) on :
 
camara90.. the 3550 is strong.. I've never had a problem with it.. The output and input shafts of the TKO have more splines.. Also I thought they claimed a different type of metal better grade alloy.. I could be wrong.. At least thats what I though.. I do mostly T-5 rebuilds as the Tremecs dont break as much not to mention most people dont even have them.. But they are getting more common..
