Some of you guys probably know me from other forums but I'm starting a build thread here for my car as well. I've been building up my car since I bought it in July 05 and I am getting close to finishing her up, finished being a relative, open ended term. Brief history of the car to follow.
~week 1
~week 2
~week 6
Then I started adding go fast parts, first with x-pipe, axle back, shifter, intake and tune. Things started getting serious after that and I ended up doing one of the first 6 speed swaps in the country putting a Viper Spec T56 into the car along with 4.30 gears, Mac longtubes and a Mac off road Prochamber. With seat time and some drag radials out back I was able to pull off a 12.85@106. I also decided to run the car on E85 and installed 39lb injectors for that.
Since about the winter of 2005 I have been saving up and buying various parts one by one to build up my car. I had originally envisioned a KB build but as time went one I changed my mind and decided that a Procharger was the power adder of choice for this build.
Here is a complete list of what is on the car now
0.20 over teksid block
kellogg 3.75 stoker crank
Probe forged stroker rods
CP 9.0 compression pistons
Canton Pan
Meziere E-water pump
stock heads
stock cams with VCT intact
Mac 1 3/4 longtubes
Mac Off Road Prochamber
Bassani Axle backs
Procharger F1A with 4.25" 12 rib pulley
FRPP 80lb injectors
Lethal Performance/Zone 5/Fore Precision Triple Pump returnless fuel system
HPX Mass Air Meter
TR6060 GT500 trans
Pro 5.0 shifter
Dynotech 3.5" driveshaft
Spec Stage 3+ clutch
Spec Aluminum flywheel
4.30 Richmond Gears
Moser 31 spline axles
Detroit Tru-Trac Diff
BMR front radiator support
BMR k-member and a-arms
BMR extreme anti-rollbar
HPM megabite lower control arms with relocation brackets
Greg Weld Drag Star 15x3.5 skinnies
Weld Prostar XP 15x9 rear wheels with Mickey Thompson Drag radials
VIS Racing Carbon Fiber 3" Cowl Hood
The motor was assembled this winter by Dayton Performance Motorsports and the break in dyno numbers were about what I expected for stock heads and cams except the torque a bit higher than I thought it would be. Without dinking too much with the tune the car put out 316rwhp and 353rwtq
At this point the F1A was installed and here is a quick video of the first startup and idle.

After everything seemed to be fine the stock fuel system and 39lb injectors were removed and the Triple Pump system and 80lb injectors were installed. I also installed the Cowl hood at this time
I am in the in initial tuning stages of the car. I've been working on it myself and so far I have seen about 12lbs of boost by 5000rpm and the 535rwhp and 550rwtq by 4700. I'm having a bit of trouble with the air fuel creeping up in line with the boost curve but hopefully I can figure that out soon. I may have to step up to a large pulley because of fuel system limitations. The Triple pump system supports over 1000rwhp on gasoline but running E85 puts a much larger demand on the fuel volume requirements. The same goes for the 80lb injectors. I'll keep you guys updated and will hopefully have some full pulls tonight if I can figure things out with the air fuel.
