I was running a 3.5 upper and 2lb lower. I'm getting the kit built by a local guy. I believe thats the only way to get a twin kit to fit really well. Plus I haven't seen many guys that run the k member I'm using
Metco lower? Did you do an innovators west ? Also when you let that other guy borrow your car I want you to take me for a spin too! That thing moves out for such a sleeper car. I bet you could make some serious money showing up to the track with stock seats, belts, and no cage and just work people. Congrats on all the hard work! That is the best looking cobra I have seen in years.
No cage yet, local track isn't to strict on tech on test and tune days.
Whether your track is strict or not, it's just common sense to have on at a certain point. Don't be one of those fools who really gets hurt because he didn't want to put a cage in because things happen when you least expect it.

Yeah, I was using the stock damper. I was going to get one of the aftermarket cage supports when they came out, just didn't quite make it. I have made a good bit of money with it so far, I've also lost some stepping out of my leauge

One is coming, just haven't yet because I didn't want to cut the car up
Somewhat, who would have ever thought a big block nova would hook in the street like glue
Hahaha thats awesome! If you have a vid throw it up, I bet that was a heck of a street race. I take if you are going to switch to a higher rear gear with the turbos now? Are you going to run any events with the car?

I have a vid but its bad quality. Plus it was ugly lol. Probably going to a 3.50 or 3.25 gear. Probably just do local events. Alot of guys put up small grudge days around here
4 cyl springs. Going to change them out for some mach 1 springs to help with the squat
Its a liberty built tranny. Faceplated, bigger input/output shaft, and some other small stuff
Nice times
I have a solid with Moroso drag springs ( cut 2 coils so car would sit level) 50/50 non adjustable shocks with stock springs up front with 91/10 struts. Best 60 ft so far is 1.49 with a 26 x 10 x 15 ----6.50 @110 1/8 Would the 4 cyl springs work better than what i have. I had a set of GT springs and i was told the drag srpings would be better. I had the same 60 ft with both sets of springs. Also what spring would you suggest for the front.
I swapped from 4cyl springs to mach 1 springs which has a higher spring rate. I do have an arb though. I run a 14" 175# spring on mine coilovers. 4cyl springs work well up front with a stock style suspension
I'm a little late chiming in, but congrats on the times.
It shows the potential of what I can hopefully get out of mine with a better 60ft and rowing through the gears better (have not tried to powershift it at the track).
I'm wanting to swap from the 3.55s and 26" tall tires to 28's and 3.90s and also faceplate 1-4 in my t56. My best so far is the 9.93 @ 142 with a 1.43 60ft. I'm shooting for that 1.3x 60.
My track let me go for a few events, but finally cracked down on me, so I'll be adding some weight with a MM 6 point bar (I know it need a cage, not a bar). I'll probably be pulling the A/C, P/S, hydraboost, and some other misc crap to make up for the added weight.
Your 9.5 gives me more then just hope, but a solidly attainable number to hit

Mines a stock bottom end set up too People that just dont know these cars call B.S on me all the time about it.

That's some nice mph and when you start power shifting it should go up some more. If you get the suspension right and do all the weight reduction that your are considering I think you'll be able to run some very low 9's. If I were you though, I would leave the 3.55 gear and swap to 28's before moving to the 3.90 gear. I have 3.90's in mine and I'm wanting to go back to 3.55's. The 3.90 works at the power level that I'm at, but in good DA when the car makes more power it will hit the rev limiter right at the 1/4. That and I plan on upping the boost, so I know they won't work then unless I move the limiter up and it's at 7200 now.
been watchin this video for a while and was just wondering if you had any clearence issues with the arb. and was also wondering if you have any pics of the arb. Thanks.
I am assuming Hux is doing the fab work for the TT kit?
