I wouldn't paint mine but I'm not sure if it would affect it, I have no experience of painting it! It could cause it to hold heat, as when the car is moving temps shouldn't be anywhere near 250. Even if idling id hope your engine isn't at 250 degrees. Against polishing? I'm not sure if 250...
Yes with a new set of injectors you’d need a new chip! Usually a good number to go with is about 10 hp per lb of injector, from my experiences! I’ve seen where 60s made 700! That being said I’d guess it to be around 450 ish range. Looks like ya got a nicely built car! Congrats and welcome...
I have a derale trans cooler works great. Has it’s own fan. I mounted it in front of front passenger tire! It came with the hoses and fittings to work! If you mount it vertical make sure your return is on top so it fills from bottom up.
I had my alky pump start leaking in about a year running straight methanol. When ya have hard launches and only bout half full it will loose it sometimes! Julio, is definitely the guy to talk to about it! But If e85 is readily available to you, I’d switch to that, over meth injection.
What’s your set up? Idk too much about the (TTA) but I do know some guys have swapped to GN heads but there is also some work to be done to make them work! But as JP 112_89 said! It’d be easiest to back out your goal to high 10s! A 10 second street car is still fast!
If you go with twin scroll headers and a 69/73 work turbo that thing will spool great! It’s based off the borg Warner 300sxe line which spool super fast and flow great numbers! PTE is a good brand but ya usually pay for the name! Lots of custom turbo sizes from work turbochargers! Although...
I agree with turbo89, Buy new fans and be done with it! I replaced 3 separate fans from junk yard if I’d of just bought a new one would of saved money time and headaches! AutoZone has them but nick can also hook ya up!
