Nice!

 

[luv2drum1]

Looking good. Should be a beast once it is dialed in.

 

[GerRod]

What a thing of beauty ... Should make 700+ rwhp easily!!!

 

[BullittWow]

Excellent Mod! Does the engine have the stock manifolds or long tubes?

See ya at the track

putting a cage in yours?

I'm trying to avoid that... although I'm past the point for needing a cage with the pulley

 

[Seer]

bleh, had to overnight a new egr adapter... previous owner cross threaded that one to high hell.

Nice!

Good luck with the build. Thought I read your car was in the shop for transmission issues ?
3" upper pulley ?
Any fuel pump, injector, or exhaust mods ?
When you took the car to the track, what gear were you in @ the end of the 1/4 ?
Looking forward to updates..

It was, itll end up going back later. I have a good relationship with the dealer, they verified the issue pre whipple and have no issues fixing it with it on. If there is a longer delay, it seems the N2MB Wotbox fixes the issue.

3.25" upper on there now, I'm ordering a 3.0 as we speak though. Still seeing if I'll need a BAP if I go 3.0"

72lb EV14 injectors, stock pumps, no bap, going to just have the voltage adjusted in the tune most likely. Stock exhaust other than an axle back. Looking at doing either an offroad x pipe or long tube headers here in the next week as well. Other mods are Cobra Jet 65 TB and JLT 127 CAI.

I was in 4th gear with a 28" tire and 3.55's my last outting in the 1/4mi. I have a set of 4.10s sitting here but I may sell them and go with 3.73.

I'm about 99% done, but the previous owner of the blower stripped the threads on the EGR mounting block (EGR Valve to block side), so I had to have one overnighted from whipple. When I started the car up it made some terrible screeching/air noises coming from the EGR, seemed like a leak hitting against that stock Ford EGR Gasket. Going to reinstall it with the new EGR mounting block and just use Red RTV on both sides to make a new high temp gasket and throw the Ford one away.

Seer, you will not need a BAP with the 3.0 pulley. You basically have exactly the same setup me. Whipple 2.9 with the crusher inlet, L&M 72mm TB (only way i could get a black one at the time), JLT 127, 72lb injectors, 3" pulley. I do have 1 7/8" kooks headers and O/R X pipe. With the 3.73 gears from the SVTPP I was somewhere between 4-5K rpm in 4th gear in the 1/4. I only see about 14-15.5 psi max boost in 4th, I can't figure out why it's that low except the for the headers. 680-690 rwhp and 650 rwtq. I'm thinking I'm keeping my 2.9 and just going to put a 15% OD pulley on it. I recommend getting the thumper tensioner. I broke my stock one not long after the install. If you do you will need an idler pulley to take up slack in the stock belt. With the 15% OD pulley I'm betting I'll need the BAP. I have one sitting in the garage. I won't get into tuning wars conversation but if you are interested in who I am using PM me. For the GT500/Terminator shootout this year at NMRA finals I'll be running the 2.8 pulley and shell URT 116. =]

Edit: My track does not like the fact I don't have a cage....

Thought you had the 4.10's in, that's why I asked about what gear at the 1/4..
If you upgrade your TB, go for the FRPP mono-blade, made by the same co. who makes the twin 65mm. ( Accufab )
Cost is about the same, I think I gained 15 hp with the mono-blade over the twin 65mm.

not yet, soon. Debating on going with the 4.10s or selling them for 3.73. I have the 4.10s, theyre making a nice paperweight at the moment.
