Not a "Whole" lot left to do.

Run some more cooling tubes to and fro the heat exchanger and intercooler.

Do all the wiring. :help: :eek:

Fill up all the cooling fluids.

Test Drive.


The main thing I'm concerned about now is the wiring part. I think Ive got about 5.5-6 hours into it now.. the wiring will most likely take me that long too. I'm not good with wiring so I'm gonna go slow.

Hopefully I will chime in tommorow and say that it's running.. We'll see.

For now though...

Fatherford has a Vortech on his makin around 450.

Blower looks good man-you should be able to get that thing into the 12's with some good supporting mods. what boost is it pullied for?

Dunno the boost. I think 8. We'll find out.

I already have electric fans and working on finishing the traction bars.

Here is an old story but the blower is from Trilogy Their Marauder kits make mad power

Damn boy, clean your engine compartment while you've got it that far apart! :lol:

I wish man!.. The price was more than right, so I went with it.

Trilogy kit. I dunno the PSI.. Ive read anywhere between 7 - 9 . So, we'll see.

Thumper, i think my engine bay is pretty darn clean considering I drive it everday.. winter weather too. 40k miles. A couple of the lower hoses may look dirty, but it's just camera tricks;) .. it's pretty clean all things considering.

Whenever I get it running, I'm gonna make a trip down to TroyerPerf and get a dyno tune with a smaller blower pulley. That belt is so tight now, it's begging for a smaller blower pulley.

All my buddies are buggin me to take it to the track today with them (Sat), but I ain't about to drop the hammer on 400+ Ft Lbs before I finish my traction bars. I've already broke the rear end once.

I'll take it to the nearest 1/4 mile track soon *IF* I feel comfortable with it (1.5 hours away). Depends on how the Trilogy tune is. If I feel good with it.. I may run a few time down the track with it. If I hit a 13.00 or less, that will be the only run I do though.

I won't feel 100% comfortable with it untill it gets on a dyno and I see everything on paper. Otherwise, I won't be doing many WOT runs.

Thumper, You should see the engine compartment with out an intake manifold.. It looks so bare it's scary.

very nice Khendrix, how much did you pick it up for if you don't mind me asking?

Not very much!;) Brand new kit! Injectors, boost gauge, intercooler and a tuner. Plugs didn't come with the kit, but I changed them yesterday to a cooler plug (HTO).

After I'm done, I'm gonna take it to my mechanic and have him look it all over.. and re-tourque the intake maniford bolts. The ones on the driver's side rear are a joke. Next to impossible to get it... but they're in.

I wonder if that place would sell just the intercooler that one looks like the size I want to replace my roush one with. nice job btw:thumbsup:

Bartak1 06-23-2007 05:53 PM

Very nice :thumbsup: Id love to see some track numbers once that thing is up and goin.
