Blown06-New Build: Cage, 4-Link, Cog Drive, + Too Much More
#992
#1000
Went to the track tonigh, there is good and bad, but basically two aborted runs.
First pass, it absolutely annihilated the tires. I pedeled and pedeled, the damn shift light was on the entire pass, I finally gave up around 1000' and it ran 10.90's. Through all that, it still managed 115mph in the 1/8.
Seconds pass, it hooked a little bit, ran 1.55 to the 60' and blew the intake pipe off.
The bad:
I forgot to turn on the datalogger on pass one, and pass two was good for less than 2 seconds. So I basically got no data.
I'm gonna have to do something about my intake piping.....silicone and t-bolts obviously aint gonna cut it as these boost pressures.
For some reason, my butt is telling me the converter is way loose.
This thing is still a pig....track scale said 4075 after pass one. I'm most disappointed with this. I spent sooo much time and money to get this thing light and I only lost 475 lbs.
The good:
I don't have water trails down the side of the block, and the radiator overflow has no water in it.
It felt pretty amazing again to drive this thing
Based on how it felt, I think it'll be a player
I didn't break anything
The truck drives great at speed.
