Wink Nice Ride

Well I was goint to upload some images of a friend of mines. But my images are just too large by a little. He has a 598ci dry block water/alchohol injected motor. Which is built for 40lbs of boost also non-intercooled with a powerglide tranny. With a nitrous convertor and slipping tranny he went 5.13 (low brake) in the 1/8th only at 13lbs. With a turbo convertor (PTC) (yell, Dusty) and a new powerglide and the same 13lbs. he went 4.80's. Each cylinder has twin injectors which feed 460lbs of fuel. It has twin 88's or 98's (I can't remember) and its on a 10.5w tire in the same of nova as yours.

But all in all you have a hell of a ride in the making and a machine that will be calling the wind hounds from hell!

That is a sick ride!!!! Considering the combination your goals should be a walk in the park when it gets sorted out.

Thanks for the kind words. It's MFI controlled with 24, 160lbs. injectors. The intake that on it now isn't the one I'm going to run. Like I said this is my first turbo combo, I think it has alot of potential. One of the reasons for running alcohol is to cut down on the weight, no intercooler and radiator. I don't have a place to put it away (rad).

I had a feeling it was MFI. Did you buy the system from Dudley or one of his dealers? Alan is a great guy from here in my home town. He's been a big help to me.

I bought it from Alan. Seems like a great guy, do you run his stuff?

Otto, you from CT? If so I think you bought my 26ft Black enclosed trailer a few years ago. What up?

Alan's about as nice a guy as you can deal with. He helps me and several others since he's a guru on the 7531 ignition. I run FAST but almost switched to MFI last year. My issue was I could loose the intercooler weight but had to keep the engine coolant system since I run a small block and the heads still need water to stay cool to avoid warping, just not enough meat in them combined with the center exhaust valves being close can cause issues with no water. I also wanted to maintain some streetability in case I run some true street events. Alan has some new things he's working on that will be very good sellers when he finishes them.
