Jodadej's Engine Build Thread

Greg we need you back east coast so you can organize some skinny jean days for us!

I will be back as soon as I can! Need to see what the EBM can do!

So how is the car running now?

It went 10.6 at 143 on the 2.66 first gear t56. Switching to 6r80 as we speak. I have to constantly switch my plugs out it seems, bit other than that it's been up to 22psi.

About time you decided to go fast

6-8psi just to test things out.

Traitor lol

You meant smart man, right?

Trying to be fast man. I messed up when I went with the 2.66 first gear t56. If it would have been a 2.97 1st gear I may have kept it. I was at the limits of the torque ratings of it anyways

Ratings are overrated, haha. I am surprised my RST clutch is still holding up

I almost guarantee swapping to the auto will be .3-.4 faster....track rental in Oct to test it and the truck out!

Yea i'm hoping it will be a min of .3-.4 faster. Hell I'm hoping it goes .3 faster in the 60'.

Don't you have a pool to go clean or something, lol

Jason, I bet that car picks up a bunch with the swap. You have a trans brake?

Not it doesn't have a brake yet, but I really need to do a gear swap. Wallace calculator says with 28.2", 3.55, 1.14 4th gear that I'll be at 7k .at 145. I really don't want to spin it that hard.

If you can get the .3 in the 60 thats .6 on the big end and knocking on the door of the 9's! Better git er dun before it gets traded in on the mini van/car seat

Well its already been 10.6 on less than good pass, so with the .3 on the little end I better be damn close to 9s.
