Is that a 6AL mounted on the firewall? Looks like that thing will be fun when it's finished.

 

[delcowizzid]

yeah 6al have a few pills for it incase we need to crank it up a bit

 

[delcowizzid]

back to the V6's LOL

 

[charlief1]

Where the heck did you find that intake? I like the idea for sure.:biggrin:

 

[delcowizzid]

stock manifold with plenum lid cut off and a plate welded on twin stock throttle bodys and the rest is all hand rolled cones etc to make it all fit our alloy guy did well there turned out great look like 2 stroke motorbike expansion chamber exhausts LOL.just need to setup the meth injectors right after the turbos now they are spraying on an angle towards the TB' from as close to the turbos as we can hopefully its enough cooling for a start at 14psi

 

[charlief1]

Well post some pics of the fab work. Looks like it should work but I'd like to see more.:biggrin:

 

[delcowizzid]

will get you some more pics this week might even fire it up this week and get a vid :biggrin:
wagons coming along now firewalls buffed motors in for good T400 is in huge pacemaker headers in wont be long and we can fire the beast up

 

[delcowizzid]

day one of the drags hoosiers dont grip no more LOL 2.2 60 foot 12.8 at 118 first run
got back down to 11.7's but now at 120.9mph gained some HP
even a 2 60 foot would do 119mph hopefully tomorrow we may do a few tweaks and have a mess round and see where we end up

Just wondering is this our series 2 3800 motor here?

[delcowizzid]

[charlief1]

Got lucky there. Glad to see you didn't wreck it. What happened exactly?

 

[delcowizzid]

weve either killed an upper control arm bush or torn the mount itself off the body .next run after that it just axle tramped badly taking off and was all over the show so we pulled pin and loaded it on the trailer to come home

 

[charlief1]

Sounds like you got extremely lucky. Something like that has the potential to total the car and you.

 

[delcowizzid]

lucky the driver is used to it being out sideways allbeit not on hoosiers with a huge sidewall LOL
