Shooting for 10's on my daily driver


Recommended Posts

So suggesting options that could be causing issues, and asking what you have done is trolling? Well i know 1 person that will not be helped.

I have taken these motors apart as well as many others.

If you are a pro at doing everything, why tell people about a misfite on 4? Are you expecting people to sympathize or try to help.

Epic waste of time trying to help people like this so this is def my last.

 

Just an FYI TechWorks makes shimmed buckets for high lobed cams. Maybe you should look into them on your next build.

He's simply updating the thread since a lot of people are interested in his build such as myself, not sure if he is asking for help.

 

After going Stage 2+ IAG block and building my heads, i'm hoping for a reliable 11-12 second car that I can have fun with on the weekends. Shooting for 10's is awesome, but just not in the cards for me money wise. Good luck with the decision. I've always heard outfront closed decks are unbreakable, but i guess its been proven otherwise lol.

ATI Crank Pulley

All running gear was balanced

So the question your going to ask is, How fast is it? The truth is it is a constant work in Process. However, being an old drag racer and having a friend who recently bought a dodge demon. We decided to see how the Subaru stacked up against the dodge? After all we couldn't go to the track as I don't have a roll bar and would not be allowed to compete. So he agreed and we found an old country road. All I can say is it was a dead even race and it scared the hell out of both of us. So, once I get the parachute and roll bar installed I will go to the track to set the suspension up. Suffice it to say, this car is very, very quick.

 

If anyone is building a 400 to 450whp car let me know as I have a lot of premium parts for sale to help you get there?

I never asked for help. And if I did it would be nice to get some information not some guy telling me that my lifters are going out or that my aos is clogged. You offer up generic information that doesn’t bring a conversation anywhere. And all buckets are shimmed fyi. All I was doing was updating my thread for those who do still use the fourms. It’s not like it’s a huge threat losing your “valuable” insight into my build...

That’s a nice build you have going there. Mine will be kinda similar but different in so many ways. But I’ll post updates as things progress.

What goodies might you still have available? I am in the midst of an engine rebuild. turns out my valve guides went to ovaltown after my last dealer rebuild.

 

I met up with Ezra1234 on the way back home with a parts car. He has a thick book of notes and charts from his build (s). pm him directly to get the current parts list.

Making a comeback. Been 5 years since the car ran. New mods include an IAG 1000+ long block, dual 450lph fuel pumps, -8 fuel feed lines, 5” ets intercooler, haltech elite 2500 ecu, fresh 6mt, plus much much more. I’ll try and update the legacy group on Facebook when the car is officially back. Also 10s are no longer going to cut it new goal is a very low 9.
