New Pony In The Stable..

[05stroker]

Congrats. looks good!

Yes, and notice how my car is not in its space behind it! That means mine is working and we have time for his! Lol

I'm still loaded up for testing next weekend.

Picked up a flexplate today for Mason, still looking for a rear main support plate if anyone has one. I'm trying to make the swap as complete as possible.

Awesome, good luck at the track next weekend, I was going to try to get to the track this weekend, but IDK if that's going to happen or not.

MMR sells those rear main plates for like $25 IIRC, I know fuck MMR but they do have them..

I would rather go to a wrecking yard and pull the motor from a wrecked car and pay them $40 for it, but thanks.

He has a better chance of driving my car down the track on low boost after some practice in his ride then getting FI before he graduates. Like my wife told me, this is his car, not my second car. Lol

Best thing i have heard in my lifeee.. cant wait for that one

Ha ha, you opened a can o worms there my friend. Might as well start planning for it.

Car looks great, BTW.

 

[05stroker]

He's still not driving mine! Lol

In all honesty though, I never would have thought back then that he would sell his 250r to get it.

Dirt bikes are a fad most of us go through, that usually passes pretty quick once we start going fast in cars.

Yea, he's rode it twice since the car arrived.

I'm going to go ahead and eat crow now! But, he still is not ready for my car. He saw that last weekend lining up with me at a track. He's ready for more power though, just have to bring in the boost and timing as we see fit. Having the parts does not make it as fast as it can be. Manuel and myself have that control. We will bring on the power as I see fit. Baby steps here, we have to remember it is a DD that has to say on pump gas as long as the 5r55s is in the car.

Mason has decided to give up his life (to a teenager) and summer to work for me this summer to make the car all he wants. Believe me, this is where you learn what a dollar is worth!

 

[swflastang05]

That's a hell of a list for a teenager, actually for anyone lol. Good deal making him work for it too, he'll appreciate it that much more.

Good luck with the installs, some great mods. Mason should be on cloud nine!

 

[05stroker]

Out with the old.


In with the new.

 

[05stroker]

Almost there, should be cranking up tomorrow!

Just a few more things to wrap up.

 

[05stroker]

After 31 hrs in the garage in three days, it's alive!

 

[05stroker]

I did install the IC lines backwards but we will fix that in the morning before starting the data logs for Manuel.

 

[swflastang05]

Congrats, looks good!

Nice job, car is going to be a rocket ship!

 

[Wes06]

Looks good

I'm not sure what caused the previous dob owners motor to blow, but keep an eye on coolant because that's what caused mine to bend a rod.

Did you find coolant in your cylinder before you pulled your head?

 

[Wes06]

No but I had ran it some. The leak was in the manifold and I found plenty in there
