AND WE HAVE MOTOR!!! Well, pics of it atleast. Its almost done, and only waiting on freaking head gaskets! They were ordered 3 weeks ago and still havent came in! Motor was supposed to ship today, but since they are not there, he cant ship the motor as he is installing the heads and timing the motor! And, he's going on vacation next week so I wont have the motor until he gets back (Aug 4th I think). Oh well, it will be worth it!

Nice!!! I can haz?¿ haha!!!

Sweet! Can't wait to see it up and running!!!!

 

[bmaxwell]

BAD ARSE!

 

[BoostedGT480]

well the motor should be shipped at the end of the week or next week....

I ordered a few more parts while Im waiting:

BMR Xtreme Anti Roll bar
BMR driveshaft safety loop
Aeromotive fuel rails w/ braided lines / fuel psi gauge
Afco alum radiator
Afco heat exchanger (About to order)
red led's for gauges
Moshimoto silicone hoses (About to order)
Maybe that will do it...This is basically going to be a total car overhaul...Pretty much the only thing Im reusing is my KB...Everything else has either been upgraded/replaced

well i would rather be in debt once and not twice...so Im building it all up now (minus the tranny) so I dont have to do anything else to it. I will see how long the tranny holds up. Im looking to get over 700whp. I know there are alot of debbie downers but Im pretty confident I will see 700 at the wheels. Increasing by 43ci and going from 10psi to 20psi and also different cams. we will see

I don't think you will have a problem getting 700whp and to be honest I'm looking forward to you hitting the mark. Its nice to see people achieve their goals.

thanks...I called KB myself and they said that my blower (note: with my new engine and supporting mods) should hit 20psi without a problem. Also remember I will be using a 10% OD crank pulley. I will not know the psi exact until I dyno or get it started, but they said with a 2 3/4 pulley I will see 20-21psi and a 3" will get me around 16-17psi.

I will most likely get both so I can run 2 tunes

 

[BLKBULLITT]

Is this still going to be your DD or no?

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Motor looks great. Nice choice on the Diamond Pistons, they make a great product.

Yes.

thanks. I've heard alot of good things about them. Waiting to test them out

talked to John @ MP and the motor is being finalized this week. Should go out for shipment Wed. or Thur. which means I should see my motor middle of next week! Getting so pumped now.

Just started receiving all my new parts this week so hopefully everything will be here to do the install and I should have it running around the 20th or so. Dyno tune date is set for September 3rd if anyone in the Bham area wants to come over.

 

[BMR Tech]

WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Nice job Brandon. You have takent his thing a long way. That thing is going to scream.

If the trans holds, you truly make 20-21 PSI....I would imagine 700rwhp would be very easy to achieve?

Looks like things are getting close, I remember how great it felt as the last parts started to come in. What are you planning to use for fuel? I switched to e85 and picked up another 40RWHP. Your build is very cool and in some way similar to mine. If you have any issues I would be happy to help if I can.

I'm going to use 93 and keep it around 16psi until I get a meth kit or run a mixture of 110 or something similar
