[Yaj Yak]

oh fuck yeah budddd

 

[b00sted]

Sick. This is very similar to the build I wanted to do on my 4-door Fairmont, but never did.

 

[Dumpsterpat]

It's kinda working. Here's a pass from last night. Went 6.07 at 115 rolled 9.76 at 116. Hoping to start swinging for the 8's next time out.

 

[Yaj Yak]

that makes me all sorts of happy

 

[Dumpsterpat]

Decided not to do drag week... Added nitrous to the car. I have a VS s485 & an 88/103 I picked up used I'm gonna try. I was very busy at work & home at the end of the season so I didn't get out much. Gonna finish the t6 hot side this weekend & try to head south for some testing if I can find a track to go to. Prolly just end up driving around & melting these worn out drag radials.

 

[Pro Stock John]

Cool combo! I have a 5.3/S485 combo.

Are you still kicking around Drag Week or similar events?

Possibly, I register every year then the time comes & I skip it. Summers are busy for me & by the time September comes I'm pretty worn out. I usually just end up at the local track with a few friends. There's a no prep true street class my car fits in I may try next year. Might just continue burning up parts at test & tune like an asshole.

 

[Pro Stock John]

I've had friends run DW, Summit DW and RMRW. They all sound pretty hard but they love it.

 

[Dumpsterpat]

Ended up putting the 88/103 on. Why not. Here's some junk mild steel mig welded hot side & exhaust pics. Next im gonna attempt to tap the back side of the pump on my th400 and run it out of the case to a solenoid for an internal dump. Ill be doing external also. Ive been interested in these for a year or so & figured i should try & make one.

 

[Mr_Roboto]

Subbing. This car rocks.

 

[Dumpsterpat]

Threw a brushless in the tank, don't mind the filth.

 

[Dumpsterpat]

Did a few things over the past couple of months... Added:
Coan internal dump valve body.
Trans line, converter & coolant pressure sensors.
Converter pressure regulator & temp sensor. (All lowdoller motorsports)
Put some 275 pro's on.
Made a new gas pedal, I was having trouble keeping it at 100%.
Track rental next weekend.

 

[Eagle]

Awesome!

 

[Dumpsterpat]

Ended up doing Midwest drags this week and met the goals for this car. It was an awesome experience. We where lucky and didn't have a single issue. Slips are from the final day.

 

[Mr_Roboto]

fucking epic win.

 

[Pro Stock John]

Congrats! I'm guessing you met Jay and Brian with the Nova from MI. Jay is a friend and has helped me on my car a few times.

If it's the Jay from Jay wire solutions I did meet him. Talked to him for a little while by the porto john's at dragway 42. Really nice guy. I think they won the 8.50 class.

 

[The Pun]

Nice build and work, my buddy was building one of these back in the day before he passed away.

 

[Five-0]

Awesome! I love this car and awesome event to be in and finish. Congrats!

 

[Yaj Yak]

i love this thing.

 

[Dumpsterpat]

 

[Jimy Bilmo]

This is fucking retarded. I LOVE IT!

 

[Dumpsterpat]

Still working on this junk. I need a parachute & a belly pan, safety is now becoming important. Gonna try a looser converter & put the 88/103 back on soon. I'm curious how long this 4.8 is gonna take this abuse.

 

[PJx5x]

Nice build!

Did you mod the th400 pump yourself for the internal dump or did it come like that?
