3800 WBS IC project finished, finally

[phat_ridegt]

Well after a few issues with sealing, and a big mess of hoses, i finally got the car to ron vogel for some tuning and some cleanup, let me tell you this thing is a beast. i cant wait to get it on the dyno. currently the car runs an xp cam, new wbs ic, 2.55, togs, and a stage4 blower, and it screams. less than 1* kr all the way to 120 with about 915-920 o2's. a big thanks to ron for helping me out so much! here are some new pics of the motor, ill get some scans up later tonight.

Looks good, mines all installed execpt the heat exchanger was leaking. And i need fuel rails. Cant wait till its all finshed

 

[syP]

what rails are those???

 

[TommyGloves]

Looks really good Dan. (I think we passed each other at Ron's house the night you dropped off your car. I was dropping off my Bonne.)

 

[Mike K]

Dan is running the ZZP rails.

Dan, I think it looks great! I can't beleive the mess of plumbing you had prior to that. You probably had a full extra gallon of coolant in the system from all the snaking.

[phat_ridegt]

It happened huh?

I posted a fix with the ones Tom had, but his brackets were way off. Yours just seemed a little long, if they were only 1/8" to a 1/4" shorter they would be fine.

 

[phat_ridegt]

twice now. once i got it home, i fixed the front rail, but i thought the back was good, then 2 injectors popped off last night, and fuel was running everywhere! i put the clips on the back last night in the middle of no where lol.

 

[xierxior]

k, pictures are all pretty and nice and stuff but what size pulley can you run before you hit knock and at what psi do you get knock?

 

[Royalgtp]

Why do you still have an open cone?????

everything else looks great.

 

[GTPquickRB]

that sounds like one helluva badass car, and it looks suit it perfectly - way to go

You say that with such joy.

 

[phat_ridegt]

thanks guys.

i have an open cone for now until i get a bigger tb. then i will change to a FWI. i had the msp lid but it wont fit with the ic.

as for pulley size...i run the 2.55" pulley, right around 13.0-13.5 psi, w/ less than 1* kr. little blips of 0.2-.6*. with about 920ish o2's and 17-18* timing. ron did a great job of tuning.

 

[Royalgtp]

Get us some times on that beast!

 

[phat_ridegt]

not sure if it'll make it to the track this year or not...the trans is starting to slip from 1st to 2nd, and i really need it to last until winter...id venture to guess with a 2.0 60', it should be in the 12.5-12.8 range

12.5-12.8 with stockers? and im confused to why u didnt get a ported tb to match the stage 4 supercharger... cuz this is my exact setup! which is awesome cuz id like to know exactly what im dealing with. this thing just looks great.

 

[phat_ridegt]

well i ran 12.98 with a 1.87 60'...so add .2 to that, and i KNOW the car is making 30 more whp or more than before. i ran out of money to spend on the car for the tb. ill be upgrading over the winter to the n* and lq4 setup.
