j/k man....I hear that the 5.0 Whipple would not fit even with a 4" cowl.

 

[Ken3030]

Looks like we are going to have to have a show down. KB vs Whipple. I will be blowing Adam first to insure a win LMAO.

Hey Sawyer dont be posting numbers that someone else has run you need to post your numbers because as they say it is not just the arrow but the indian that makes the difference LMAO.

Hey Tony I talked to Sawyer and he says he is going to scalp you pale face!

Party pooper. Whats wrong with some smack talk and some competition?

 

[tlt05gt]

Ok, so there it is. Team Whipple vs Team KB. When is this going to happen? I'd like to put Tony and Dean on the trailer.

Ok im done with Adam....lol You have to give me a little more time Paul I am still working on getting my car finished but when it is you got head up....lol

I figure since we are going to be running the same combination it should be a good race. Make sure you bring your video camera because I always wanted to see what my rear license plate looks like while im going down the track.....LMAO

Tony,
How much HP/TQ will the stock manual tranny hold?

 

[ChevyKiller]

that's suggestive cause it depends on how long? Burcham has held 1000+ rwhp on the manual but then again, how many times has he had to replace/fix it?

The real question on the manual is not really how much hp you can handle on the trans IMO - it's how much HP can you effectively keep any clutch/flywheel combination in play.

Well if thats the case my new clutch feels like it belongs in a freaking mack truck, so it should hold up pretty well.

 

[94tbird]

youll kill the tranny or snap the input shaft real soon i bet. many guys have snapped the input shaft on MF with as little as 440rwhp

 

[ZmanM3]

What about the tranny?

My Tranny is holding up so far, but I haven't had a chance to take it to the track since I put the smaller pully on. My plans now are to swap the engine, and put a spec clutch and fly wheel in for now. Next major upgrade I'm saving up for is going to be the tranny then I'll put the 2.98 pully on and see what I can get out of the old Saleen S/C. JDM makes pretty good power with their blue car which has a Saleen S/C.

[ZmanM3]

Yep, that makes me want to see what I can do with mine!

it says 14 psi as well, i bet it is a saleen cover over a whipple 5.0 haha

 

[ZmanM3]

Could be, I think 14psi would be the 3" pully.

 

[svt boost]

hey, let me know I have a 3.0in pulley 8 rib just sitting around!

Ok I was just kidding screw all you KB guys. You guys all got head up. Paul is that better?

Burcham is not using the stock trans, he uses a TKO on his car. I am sure Tony can upgrade your trans to be capable of holding the power you are looking for, the questin is will the shifter stay in place?

There you go, thats much better.

 

[MSgt46270]

Wish I could get into this trash talk with my saleen, but out of all of you I have the slooooowest car. I need some real sponsors to catch up to you guys. For now I'm just glad to be part of the ST Motorsport team .
