Does that serpentine belt work alright with no tensioner keeping it tight?

silverpoison · 02-22-2009, 12:43 PM

That belt is on there tight.

Greg 1320' · 02-22-2009, 01:44 PM

To get the belt on/off you need to unbolt the alt. and walk it off. I should probably get a belt thats about a 1/4" bigger.

I figured thats how you were doing it. I'm trying to decide if I want to do it that way or like this one: 1986 Mustang Gt Turbocharged Engine Photo

Hopefully in the next couple weeks or so. I am going to limit the power for now at 1k until I get a feel for it. It already went 9.0 with 200 less rwhp.

ROFL That's very true.

Greg 1320' · 04-27-2009, 09:39 PM

I was able to get 3hrs work on the car Sat. Finished up all the brake stuff, re did the vacum lines for the boost controller, and wired up the alt. Maybe one day this thing will run at the track again

I don't see that being a problem...

...on pump gas.

Greg 1320' · 05-01-2009, 10:33 PM

I do... it will put a hole in the side of the block

Never race on 91 octane pump gas

Thinking of going in for a couple hours tomorrow morning to wire the boost controller. If you want to drop that block off I will be there in the am.

FordFanStan · 05-02-2009, 12:05 AM

Greg, you get nay of my messages? I been trying to get ahold of you man. Are you going to try to attend the L specific get-together this Sunday at Hooters in Ontario? I was going to deliver the heads to you if you have the rest of the dough. I will be there either way, if you want to pick them up, let me know and I will bring them along. They are all prepped and ready to go, ready to bolt on. No valve leaks, all machining done, 5 angle valve job, all new high quality Bronze guides, milled and machined properly, new valve seals, etc.

If I would have known how much out of my pocket I was going to spend I would have charged you alot more lol, my loss your gain. FFS

Greg 1320' · 05-02-2009, 02:15 AM

Sorry dude, been real busy. I was actually going to give you a ring tomorrow. I wont make it Sunday but pm me your Paypal. Maybe someone can pick them up for me.

Greg 1320' · 05-03-2009, 01:10 AM

Boost controller wiring finally done. Kept all wiring tucked and hidden for the super clean look

I really wish I would have read this last night... We were literally right off of the 605 and Firestone. We met up at the Target right there. Dammitt, Greg.

Finally got some hours in on the Bullitt though!!!

Quicktime_GT · 05-03-2009, 04:57 PM

What an awesome build.. I just read through all 17 pages and its amazing how an idea of a badass street car turned into something that looks like a pro mod car!

Very nice... can't wait to see you down in the 8's!

Greg 1320' · 05-04-2009, 12:26 PM

Thanks
