Holeee shit!!! 8.31 @ 165! Very impressive on its own....and amazing considering all of the stock parts retained...

 

[Iceman II]

Wow! That's moving out. I hope he upgraded the driver seat!!

 

[Bud]

Thanks for filming the car, hopefully it gets quicker from here

 

[TClark22]

Holy sheet Bud...that car flies!!!

Whats the internals? Power numbers?

When your going to upgrade the block and turbos what power numbers you expect?

 

[Bud]

Currently has manley I-beams, Diamond pistons, billet oil pump gears and good valvesprings/retainers. Pulling it soon to sleeve the stock block and go back together with it. The car hasn't seen a dyno recently with this config so just estimating power from weight and trap speed. We are thinking 1000-1100 at the wheels currently. Hopefully more than that after sleeving and more boost.

Nice!

yea i know the stock block gets a little iffy above 1000. Can't wait to see 7s with sleeves and more boost

Not sure what you mean, original post says:

"Stock block, heads and cams"

Doesn't say stock engine anywhere.

Very impressive! These Coyote motors just keep on impressing.

 

[SinisterX]

how much boost and what fuel?

The 8.31 run was on 21psi. Running e85

Impressive build ! Congrats

 

[Bud]

Impressive build ! Congrats

Thanks, I overbuilt the car so it would be able to do what I planned to ask out of it (9.50's). Then any sort of a plan went out the window and I went crazy with it, and now we are hunting 7's. Not sure we will be able to get there, but the sleeved block will at least make me feel a little better about the longevity of the motor at the 25psi range.

I think you might be able to get there with sleeves. Def on the right path.

I've tried not to get greedy with the car and set unrealistic expectations. Feel I am getting greedy with wanting a 7.99, but we will know soon. Thinking about a chin spoiler and maybe blocking off the lower grill opening to help with aero a bit. No clue what MPH that actually starts to have an impact, but worth trying for some other gains besides just throwing more power at it.

Impressive! How much weight reduction have you done if any?

 

[Sn95Snake]

Impressive! Leaves very smoothly and dramafree, makes it look way to easy!

 

[Bud]

I have done quite a bit of weight reduction. It is around 3250lb with driver.

 

[SinisterX]

7's are defiantly in your future. That race weight is the key.

Love it man !
