Because anyone in the right mind racing in the 1/4 would install a cage in there car before adding more power.

[bubba]

drift cars need cages too...

[zbrown]

Might get around to a cage

Looking good as usual mister Brown.

[kylush]

Looks sick, those heads look really nice!

[zbrown]

thanks

you should do a truck manifold setup on yours?

[kylush]

haha yes I should... Finally done with school and got a job in Watertown so hopefully I'll have some money and time to throw at it in the next couple years. Got a dyno and a very good tuner nearby from what I hear

[zbrown]

Yeah andy is good shit

So intercooler + lower static compression = moar boost?

should make alot more power at the same boost, or atleast put it to the ground with the good converter now

but yeah will be able to run as much boost as that little turbo will support anyway

Got my trans from Josh at Kentucky Turbo.... he had it built for his 1000hp build but decided to go 4l80 instead

it is fresh with good stuff and a brake, I shouldn't have to worry about breaking it anytime soon

the ratio of low gear should really help me with traction, and let the engine load up better in my light car

nice and light too

[zbrown]

and since i am an idiot that didn't post it up, it is a powerglide

Ok now i realize 98% of you guys will hate this, really i do, so it is alright to bash

i just get carried away when i start messing with aluminum because it is so fun, and i had a big hole already

I need to do some trimming yet, and i will probably paint it all black

[DelSlow]

Your tabs are expired.

k got my supplies for plumbing the coolant, assholes sent me red/blue instead of black like i ordered. It is Earl's fittings and pro-lite hose

If i did it again i would have gone -16, i didn't realize how big -20 actually was, and -16 fittings/hose is alot cheaper/abundant

just the straight hose ends are over 50 bucks a piece for that size

also adding a thermostat, it is an inline meziere housing. Doing this just to give the car a chance to warm up quicker, and to slow the coolant flow down some for better heat transfer in the radiator

and yes i did cut out my fenders, I plan to add a dump right off the turbo and out the front fender with an electric cutout, and this gives me the room to do it

and kind of what the mega bug catcher looks like, not done yet though..... I love dust
