3.4L Whipple Install

[tached_out]

3.4 Whipples are called crushers.

Then I stand corrected, I thought the crusher was a bigger inlet.

3.4 Whipples are called crushers.

The optional inlet is called the crusher inlet.

The optional inlet is called the crusher inlet.

I stand corrected. I thought it was the 3.4L Whipple supercharger.

No there not.the crusher is just a bigger inlet whipple makes.3.4 or a 2.3 can use a crusher inlet.I had one on my terminator.now going twin 65billets.

Elky is the one building the car.

 

[psfracer]

Wow great job on that new inlet for the 3.4. That looks much better vs the old one. With how much detail you have in every other part of the car, it definitely was worth the time and effort.

Do you ever go to Famoso? Or just Sacramento?

yeah Elky has built some pretty sick cars on the track. Once we get the transmission finished I will be at there as much as possible

 

[blade]

what rims do you have on your car?

 

[tached_out]

Forgestar F14 18x10 and 18x9 with a 305 in the rear. They are not on the car yet, still in the boxes next to the car.

Also it appears that with the new inlet built it also fits better then the one it came with. I just got a text that it does not look like there will be issues with it fitting on having to change my K-Member. Though nothing is definent yet until the car is running.

 

[elky406]

Goes out for powder coating tomorrow

 

[loots06]

That's too much speed for one man...

 

[Back@itagain]

I scanned through real fast and maybe missed it but what did this build ever end up making?

 

[tached_out]

Still working on it. Just got the blower installed. Getting the rest of the parts powder coated took forever. Here was a shot took a couple days ago.

Still waiting on the MT Drag Radials and Meth Kit to come in. We didn't have to lower to block at all as well. The new inlet fits perfect and I have the Cervini's Ram Air hood so that added some clearance.

 

[Department Of Boost]

Are you going to be running a 10rib belt drive for the blower?

 

[tached_out]

later on I will be going to the 10 rib. Just want to get the car running for right now. I wont be taking it to the track or beating it up right away. This winter I will be doing the trans swap so thats when I will probably go to the 10 rib.
