91 Mini Tubbed Mustang Coupe

[draggin50]

I heard that pink with green stripes paint job is completed now!!!

[2Fast4You]

Funny guys, no updated paint job at this time.

[2Fast4You]

Minor upgrade though, it should awaken with this animal.

Well that's either giggle gas or one of those subwoofers disguised as a giggle gas bottle.

[Kwik92GT]

I'm betting it's NOT a subwoofer. :D

[2Fast4You]

I'm betting it's NOT a subwoofer. :D

I would say that your suspicions are probably correct, just a baby shot though!

[Maximus]

Dumb question......

Why are your spark plug wires 100000000000' long? :D

[SN95N/A]

I got a new 15 lb bottle id sell

[2Fast4You]

I accomplished the hard lines from the solenoids to the NOS plate.

[2Fast4You]

Made a purge line and tested it tonight, it's working flawlessly. :D

[Walter]

Hopefully you dont have any internal corrosion issues on that steel line you used. That could cause your nitrous solenoid to clog an effect your tune up over time, or worse be held open by debris. Typically SS tubing or PTFE line braided hose is used. SS tube is cheaper that a piston.

[2Fast4You]

It will end up with SS line eventually, just used what I had available to me for the time being.
It was only used from the solenoid to the plate, won't need to worry about the solenoids.

[Walter]

Gotcha

[2Fast4You]

Just another piece to the puzzle.

I think it looks great Shayne! You know me and bright colors. I'm sure that like my 13 GT the color looks so much better in real light. Hard to capture some paint properly with photography. I just thought of Speed Buggy when Craig said it looked like a nuclear orange. Now that was funny.

Id come watch you make some passes if it wasn't a million degrees out!

No pics as of yet Craig, no miracle work here. Lol
I would prefer KilKare but time will tell, it'll be a little while though.

[draggin50]

Save the new paint and just go to Kilkare!

I like Edgewater but they have got to start doing something for prep/safety. Its been horrible the last few times I ran there.

[2Fast4You]

If I go to E20, I would have to pull out about 30* of timing to get down the track. Lol
By the way, I did purchase brand new slicks for this year.

Offers adjustability of the units shown above.I was looking at those Walter but decided to use what was already being used, I just needed to hog the aluminum out for some weight savings. It's a bear pulling those seats in and out with them weighing in at almost 5lbs each, X2 on each seat. The other thing is that the seat brace and my seat location is matched up with it as well. Still useing the manual sliders though. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180718/f086a6e9466059b705fc262e71f7f857.jpg

Just out of curiosity what kind of side load does that setup place on the crank and associated bearings and seals? How much tension will be on the belts or is that why you are running a timing belt that can be run with little to no tension on it?

[Hensley32]

I run sliders on my kirksey with no problems. Bracketed to my cage and isn't going anywhere

The pump itself will have little to no tension on it.

[redfirepearlgt]

The pump itself will have little to no tension on it.

So how is the pump regulated? What pressure differential will you attempt to maintain or is it preset based on engine displacement and RPM when you order the unit? I understand the concept just curious at what point too much vacuum is too much and starts to hamper the upward stroke of the piston cycle. In my mind too much vacuum effect on the piston up stroke would be like sticking your finger over the end of a syringe (without the needle in it) and trying to pull up the plunger. Thanks in advance for the 411.

You could T in a vacuum gauge on the bottom end where the vacuum pump will be connected to the lower side. A mechanical version may work, but not sure being the atmosphere will likely be heavy with oil vapor and mist. Another option would be to obtain an electrical vacuum gauge but you're looking at $250 for the only model I could find. A vacuum boost gauge that reads vacuum down to 30inches would also work. They are a bit more reasonable as they are in higher demand with regard to one with a sending unit vice the mechanical option if you have to go that route.

That's for sure! Just had to replace both inner tubes on my daughters, rear tire and inner tube on my sons and the rear inner tube on mine, what the heck!

There is no thermostat housing on this intake, each water jacket is ran with a -12 braided line. I can always install restrictors if needed. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180907/8c109686a07839fc1bc0fe4e082f9743.jpg

What happened

[draggin50]

You're gonna miss out on some good weather coming up!!!

[2Fast4You]

What happenedHad to pull the trans back out do to a leaking shifter shaft seal, that meant the whole exhaust had to come out as well etc.

Sent from my Z965 using Tapatalk

[draggin50]

Should've tried some flex seal!!!

Sucks though that it had to come back out to fix one small problem. Nothing is ever easy.

[2Fast4You]

It was a bad leak, not sure anything would have helped other than replacing it. It was inevitable, it was easier to just fix it now. Just typing about makes it sounds easy, but when your car is only inches off of the concrete floor, it's another whole story. It should be out soon though.

[2Fast4You]

Had some throttle linkage issues as well, I hope this helps. I couldn't get the throttle past 3/4 of the way, this will raise the point at which it was able to mount before. It also gives me a little more travel on the throttle, time will tell. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181007/94546de8b68cfb152be4d2ce3536e37d.jpg

Replacing these mikd steel uppers with these Racecraft billet uppers, should be a good upgrade over them. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190228/be47f1efa926ff3d5970f07695859f05.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190228/0a2e33cecaddcc4f9c29b7be56973697.jpg

Just looked on their website and saw they are billet steel. I thought they was billet aluminum. Guess that answers my question.

Those are nice looking pieces. I'm still rocking the old school HPM uppers.

[2Fast4You]

I will have the others up for sale once they have been replaced, if your looking to upgrade Rick.

[Walter]

You won't see any difference, just fancy looking is all.

And that could very well be true.

But when you put nitrous to it, they wont flex or break. So good insurance in my book. Those look good! I just have jegster uppers.

Thanks Steve, your absolutely correct about insurance.
It was a recommendation to insure no deflection in that area of the controls arms, I doubt that it is going to do anything to improve anything else.

Actually shayne, you are going to have to worry about me before those guys can make their way up the list to you. I am going to try out a gasket matched intake before the season is over. Should give me a little boost and let me spray a little more. Its on like donkey kong brother.... haha

Not prepping and staging correctly for the track condition and then over powering it isn't a misfortune, it's a poor judgement call. All part of the process.

[draggin50]

Well it was Edgewater... We have saw how the track conditions were last year. Such a shame that a great track like that could turn out so shitty.

Wish someone would take proper care of it. Or open Tristate back up!

Every time I went the year before, I had traction issues. About a thousand feet out, I got completely sideways once and it scared the shit out of me!

I love the track and the setting. I just wish Dick would take better care of it.

[2Fast4You]

Rumor has it that someone else is managing the track this year, thus the added advertisement on Facebook for the special events.
Hopefully it's not like the Bengals and Mike Brown always micro managing, time will tell though.

[Walter]

Jay Grieshop has been the manager since after the dirty track thing. He has been very accommodating in terms of track prep also open to special events.
