Thanks man, I have a spare trans already though. Its only a matter of time. They are pretty tough though, so we’ll keep an eye on her.
I am going to run full timing, so I shouldn’t be needing the retard box. Normally nitrous and a bunch of timing is a bad thing, but it seems to work wonders on this setup. My only fear is that I am going to need an MSD tach adapter to get the RPM window switch to work right, which would really piss me off. I want to be ready for Friday at the track. Its the last 2 wires to hook up, so I will find out tomorrow either on my lunch break or right after work.
Assuming that I don’t need a tach driver, it will be this week. If my rpm window switch doesn’t work right, and I need to order up a tach driver, I doubt Ill be able to get it by Friday, so then it will be this weekend, or early next week. Weather pending, I should have everything “testable” today on my lunch break, or after work.
So, after hooking up the nitrous controler today, I noticed that no matter what I did, I could not get the RPM signal correct I was looking all around to see how fast I could hunt down a Tach adapter. I called up Emery, and he had one in stock! He acutally beat the price I found online, and I was able to drive up and get it today. Thanks em!
Came back home, hooked up 4 wires, and now my digital nitrous controller display reads the RPM like a champ. I was going to test out my solenoids, but its a little bit late to be revving it up, even a little bit. Tomorrow on my lunch break, I’ll be able to open her up and check the noids. Besides the rats nest of wires I have to loom, its pretty bad ass! I’ll be ready to go on Friday.
11.930 @ 119.68 tonight with the new slicks, and only a 1.875 60’ time. So Hopefully I can get to around 11.8 or so off the bottle, and than whatever that does.
As johnny posted up, I have a leak in my main 16’ braided line. There is a hole in it about 3’ from my bottle, which totally sucks. We will either cut it, and put a union there, or just replace the line with a new section. Besides that though, I was going to test it today. So, maybe still this weekend, although I have a lot of non-car related stuff to do, so we will see.
Nice to be in the 11’s now though! That tire, even though 1.5" smaller, is hooking better already, even with only 3 race gas passes on it so far!
