That's not a typical failure. There is something more going on that generated that...extreme sideloading and/or wobble has been induced to cause that failure. The addition of the rotating load of a centri or PD unit isn't going to cause something like this to happen IMHO. After owning FI setups for more than 12 years now I have never seen that happen.
The setup that caused this will tell the full story. .
Id love to install a Procharger on mine, but I have these 2 just sitting here.

Of course that will lead to a whole bunch of upgrades and more money spent.:(
^^^ Oh yeah....twin 55's. Will make nice boost and spin up fast. Can't go wrong there...especially when you have them and the tools and place to do it all yourself. Hopefully there will be a track open in the area at some point.
66s :DQuote:

This, will be getting some 3" SS V-bands as I was banging on them for an hour trying to get them off the headers.

Hopefully, Ill have the trans out tonight and on its way to get fixed tomorrow.
Those pictures are nice!
I cant wait to get to the track. This shit is getting old!
Yes it was!Quote:

Great pics Craig, he snapped some almost as good as Brian would have. let us know about the trans, sounds like you may have busted the gears.
Yes, don't I know.Quote:

Or the suspension is set up properly, maybe...Quote:

Parts are ordered today, and I should have it back next week!
Wow, nice work! Should be a pretty straightforward repair as long as parts are available.
Ouch! that hurts worse than my pinky finger I got caught in a belt sander (50 grit) over the weekend.
Houston, We have a Problem !!!
All parts should be here on Friday along with a Clutch tamer so hopefully Ill be back on the street this weekend!
I received this in the mail the other day. Im hoping it helps the transmission live longer as it suppose to "soften" the hit or launch.
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...04c64705_k.jpg
Not a lot of options on where I can mount it.
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...b55df44c_k.jpg
But changing out the braided lines to the Black braided helps blend it in.
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...84ef5ea8_k.jpg
Got the relays for it mounted up.
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...88820f65_k.jpg
Pulled the seat so that I could get under the dash easier...
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...bee412e6_k.jpg
so that I can make a couple mounts for 2 micro switches. One will activate the 2 step (im taking it off the shifter handle) and the other with De-activate the Tamer.
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...6b480c4a_k.jpg[/url]
My replacement parts are being held in hostage in Bumfuckville Illinois due to civil un-rest, so Im not sure if I will make the UMTR race this Saturday. :mad:
Busy, Hot night in the garage last night.
Easiest way to work under here, remove the seat.
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...03f5a73d_k.jpg
Some misc brackets from Lowes and some micro switches from Amazon...
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...ed51c8c1_k.jpg
came up with this setup. This will turn off the tamer.
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...4a721050_k.jpg
and this one will activate the 2-step
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...616723ee_k.jpg
Adam was also busy last night, as my parts were finally released from "Civil Unrest" quarantine.

Looks like me racing this Saturday comes down to Republic Diesel as they are fixing my DS that I had to Beat the Shit out of to get it out. I ordered a new slip yoke, rear u-joint end, u-joints and balancing. They had to order the yoke, so I got my fingers crossed as the weather is suppose to be awesome!
Anyone else running UMTR this Saturday at E2O?
Cruise in at my farm as well. Hope you make it. Buy a Mark Williams billet yoke. You'll never need another.
Looking good Craig!
Found my last 12v Switched wire I needed to activate the Tamer...
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...61fed6de_k.jpg
spliced it in and then ran the 2 wires needed over to the shifter area and put the carpet back down.
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...82d769b8_k.jpg
Hopefully Ill have someone come over after work to give me a hand getting this installed. 10 years ago, I could probably have done it by myself, but Im smarter now and employ help.
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...b12ab6f6_k.jpg
DS is finished, but I think Im going to get a call from UMTR that my Tamer is Illegal...which in turn will defeat the whole purpose of building a stick car.
Oh well, Ill wait and see what happens.
Is adjustable clutch legal?
