Well guys, sadly the time has come for some of us to pack up for the winter.
My last run of the year was pretty sad. Didnt really break and records or anything, Still trying to get my motor set up. But now the car is parked for the next 6-7 months I got time and a little bit of money to get some more goodies for it.
First and formost i'm gonna finish the exhaust. I've got an open 3" down pipe. All I need is a 3" flex joint to connect the DP to the rest of the 3" exhaust. It'll sound mean then it's done! I'm also gonna make a new DP for the external WG, I had to hammer it to clear the DP and it looks kinda ugly.
Gonna move my IC next. I'm gonna lower it a few inches So that it gets more air flow over it. I'm also gonna move it foward as well so that I can mount my Rad fans infront of the rad (so between the rad and IC). That should help with precooling the IC and most definatly help to cool the MASSIVE rad i got in there also it'll help clean things up under the hood.
THEN, I would like to get adjustable cam gears. That would definalty help with my lack of power issues. I cant get the cams centerd with 8v gears.
Some where during all this I'm gonna up-grade the k-frame to an 89 with new poly controll arm, sway bar bushings and of course new ball joints. Also gonna get some new shocks/struts to go with my syspention tecqunes lowering springs.
Now, after i get this all togeather I'm gonna take her down to the dyno to see where i'm at. I've got a Shelgame cal now, I just have to get the car up and running again to test it out...
I would like to hear what you other guys are planning on doing over the winter months
