Added a Mystichrome to the Stable!

Looks nice man! Idk if I like these or the series 3 better which is what I have (the s1 wasn't an option when I ordered mine) but nothing beats ccw classics. I just wonder how long before mine flake BC I get a lot of brake dust. Wipe the wheels every drive and get plenty of black each time although I haven't been able to drive it much lately. Its got new high end pads the po did and I don't like all the dust. Its a street queen for me but it would be nice knowing any issue would just polish out. Hard to justify the cost. Good looking wheels!

I'm still unsure on these. They look damn good from some angles and kinda weird from others.

Eventually I'll get some high end wheels.. I kinda like the TF Mach 5s and the CCW SP500...

But we'll see. I wont be dropping that kind of money on wheels for a while.

I'm jealous of you being on the alignment rack, can't find a shop by me that will take my car since it's so low.

TJ's shell in Lockport. I've aligned a lowered cobra there. I worked there last year. I spent about 18 months there working.

Finally had the chance to get on the dyno yesterday to see what she is capable of.

Overall I'm thrilled with the car. It pulled strong and it made a little more than I was expecting.

Like mentioned before the heat is killing me.

I went in with a 3.25 upper and 2lb lower.

Best pull was 727/665 @17* and 22lbs.

It was about 100* in the garage.

I plan to put a 3.5 upper on and possibly get a rear mount IC tank to help with the IAT2s.

The car is a monster and I'm in love!

NICE! Enjoy the new power!

already going under the knife..

I've decide to copy Malcolm and do the GT500 heat exchanger and the j2 fab trunk mount stuff.

After that I'll work with Kevin again to get it squared away.

thats my plan. im like you right now, same basic set up and im seeing iat2s higher than i would like. after reading malcolms post with the gt500 set up and speaking with justin about his cooling mods its seems like the best way to go. ive said from the beginning i want the most efficient set up i can have, this seems to be the answer.
have you ordered all the stuff already? curious to hear your feedback. i wont be making the switch till next summer probably, fall winter and spring are when i get to actually enjoy the car. summer is my down time. looking forward to your progress!

What max IAT2 temps are you seeing? Are they 150 plus just cruising around....or is it only elevating high after WOT?

 

[NateDogg]

Cruising isn't bad.. I'm around 110-120 depending on the day with the KC on. During WOT it climbs very quickly to high 130 sometimes 140 and pulls timing like crazy once its soaked.

I don't drive it crazy, but I don't want to be afraid of pushing 22lb either..

I haven't bought anything yet. In discussions with Justin now. Trying to sell my KC and True forged tanks to fund the new set up... It'll be sad to see those tanks go. lol

I know, I reallllllyyyyy don't want to put it back down because its going to be cooling off down here soon. but once I get my stuff sold it shouldn't take that long to get back up and running.

 

[94slowbra1]

ha, thats the way it goes, always something. good luck on the set up, im anxious to see how it does for you

 

[thewrubelator]

Great pull...that makes for a fun cruiser I'm sure!

Thats not that high at all! There's no way the E85 tune is pulling timing at high 130/140.....hell its probably not pulling timing until way north of 150, like 170+. Now the pump gas tune, thats another story. It probably is pulling fractional amounts of timing high 130s....then massive amounts by 150

Definitely do what you can to improve the cooling....but there's no way 140 on the E85 tune is "alarming". I cruise around with 140 IAT2s and when I punch it it still roasts tires for a looooooong ways lol

 

[NateDogg]

Hmm.. I'll have to do some more datalogging. I don't really understand the relation between high temps and when it pulls timing. That's just what the guy doing the dyno was saying.

I'll post some logs on here when I get a chance.

I just let it idle for about 5 minutes and the Ic fluid was only 80*. I thought it was supposed to be around 44.

I'll have to look into that aswell

After sitting and thinking about it last night I've decided to wait until next summer to switch set ups. Like 94slow1 said, down here winter is time to drive these cars.

So I'll enjoy it as is until late spring next year.
