Rollin'

In the last post I said I hoped to click off some 7.50s at Dragging Rights. It did not run 7.50s ...it went 7.17@96.59!!
I had made several changes to the tune up including putting more timing in it after the 2-step until the boost was all in. It still only has 12 degrees under full boost...and made just over 12psi on this pass.

Bring this up to speed.

I haven't posted here in a while so to bring this blog back up to speed... I got the LS motor running but had issues with controlling the boost and subsequently blew a head gasket. I studded the heads and put in LS9 MLS gaskets....along with a second wastegate.

I then added a air-to-water intercooler instead of the meth injection. With a cooler mounted in the bed with the pump in it.

Also hooked up the 2-step and added a button to the shifter.

I had it to the track last weekend...I had issue with launch but it's coming around. On the first pass I forgot to let go of the 2-step button on launch and went 2.19 to the 60'...it went 8.01@92mph
The next pass it was still weak on the launch but went 7.89@93...on 11psi with 12 degrees of timing.




So, that's where it is right now...Dragging Rights is next weekend so we'll see if it will click off some 7.50's!!
