One more thing, going turbo you are probably going to want to get out of the 5.13 rear gear set, and move up towards a 4.10 or even a 3.73. Turbo's need the load.

Hx52's we stay holet

Yeah cause he351cw's aren't holset's... 

Niggers.

A pair of HX52's would need a whole different build, and a single hx52 wouldn't be enough.

HX52s would just be more betterer

Im thinking thats the avenue I'm going to go with my 00 SS....

They would look cooler, that is about it.

They would take longer to come up on the line, make big heat in the transmission in the process, and then you would have to run them at like 10psi in order to not run faster then 8.50, and need to spend $10K on going to an sfi cage, and probably another $5k on the safety equipment that expires every couple years. It becomes very expensive very quick to run quicker then 8.50's. If that was the goal of the car there is still no way I would recommend hx-52's as they have very limited options. I would recommend a pair of BW S468's or S475's depending on how fast he really wanted to go.

My original suggestion of an S480 96mm turbine 1.32 T6, is only $850-900 brand new. Even old used HX-35's seem to go for $250ea+ these days.

Don't you love working on cars that are like spotless clean. You can spend all day under that thing and not even get your hands dirty.

YEs, Its nice. 

[JACER63]

Other then a window net, that should get an NHRA sticker for 8.50.

I would say either a single S480, or a pair of GT35R's or if you want to do budget a pair of HE351cw's.

yeah the car has a net..just removed for now..gonna add some bars here and there to add strength..and pc of mind

went with some cxracing t70 t/4 .70 a/r cold .96 hot iirc.. went cheap for intial setup then will update the turbos .. ordered some shaorty headers and gonna do topmounts..well see.. pics coming soon!

[dvst8r]

Sounds a little loose on the turbine housing, it may struggle to build boost at the line, but that will depend as much on tune, stall and cam as anything.

[JACER63]

well i dont have a transbrake as of yet..still debating.. anyhow, this car has always left off the footbrake and throttle.. has had a 1.50 60'  off idle basiclally.. those turbos will be for mock up and general troubleshooting, for leaks and such... there is a great article in this months car craft, they did som cam testing with twin t76's from cx racing.. good article.. basically trying to equal the top mounts they used, to clear the tie in's. and yes, i hope my stall is not to much, iirc its 5200 but i do have a backup, 4600 i think.. and also 4.88 and 4.56 gear sets..

[jarebear667]

looks very nice!

[JACER63]

well recieved some of the parts so far.. at least i can start some mock ups..

cx racing t70's .96 ar hot/.70 ar cold 3in v-bands.. these are for mockup and first tune,check shit out deal..





i went with these 44mm gates from godspeed for pricing, 109 shipped ea. and came with all the vbands and hardware..ill give it them a shot..if suck...in the trunk they go..



and im going to use these jeg's block huggers for mani's..cut off the 3 bolt flange, and modify as needed for my t4 flanges,for the topmount setup..




these flanges..


and my dog roxy, 3yr old akc lab... lazyday man..fully asleep and snoring..



more to come in the next few weeks.. need to still order a ton of shit, but it will slowly be had..

fab pics of what i have will be in a week.. hoping

[JACER63]

well started on some of the fab for the mani's... dri vers side...






damn need to clean up the inside of the collector...lol


flangness...



getting somewhere... alll tacked, need to scoop up the tig from pop's shop and finish up..


gonna start on the pass side soon... will post up more fab in a bit...

[DasPoop]

Sweet. What's internally done to the motor? Roller cam? Rods and what heads are on it? What intake is that and how even are your plugs specifically 2,8,3,5. If they are not very even the situation will only get worse under boost. I would also suggest.a 4 hole tapered spacer asthey are all the rage and for very good reason.


I just had to junk a block that was in a wissota latemodel at around 630hp because it cracked a no. 4 sleeve so be cautious. Dart shp blocks are an awesome cheap alternative as they have. 350+ sleeve thickness at stock bore.

[JACER63]

motor is just a basic 383 eagle stroker kit.. afr 195 heads, and team g weiand mani... cam is just a hydraulic flat tappet.. .550 lift.. all plugs looked great, so no worries, i will be most likel;y changing the cam and valvetrain to either a hyd. roller, or solid roll. and changing the springs out to match..dont care if the shit blows, i have 2 more 3 fiddy's and 1 400 sbc in tow... 

[JACER63]

das, were you referring to the carb spacer , as the 4 hole ? because there is a 1"spacer but its open plenum style..

[JACER63]

now remember i'm no pro at tigging, but these will work for a backyard shadetree kinda build... plus its fun to try and learn the skill... practice,practice...yada yada..  the welder is a lincoln squarewave 175 #6 cup...

 








now i need to finish the flanges and wg tubing and such.. more to come....

[92CXyD]

How thick is those flanges?

Are the stud holes opened up a little to compensate tor thermal expansion? 

[JACER63]

russ , irrc they are 1/4" flange on the headers, 16 g tubimg ... and no i did not have to open up the holes bolts still fit nicely...it was tight though.. 

[DasPoop]

Call Wilson they will set you up. We also make these in house so maybe i can get you one back door. among other things

[JACER63]

[JACER63]

das, are those 1" or 2" and whats the cost per say...   also are they billet, aluminum, ?

[JACER63]

small update.. the driver side mani is done.. now on to the down pipe..and dump







also finishing up the flange for pass side...








the pass side was a bitch.. had to remove the collector,and shorten the runners, then replace a shorten collector.. reweld, and blah..
tons still to come....

[90turboteg]

dude that shits badass. What size turbines are those

[ratcityrex]

What are you doing for your fuel? What's your setup?

[JACER63]

cx racing sweetness, .96 a/r..

[JACER63]

What are you doing for your fuel? What's your setup?

currently, its a holley "blue" good for 12 psi.. shit is outta here.. need to decide if this is going to stay carb, or efi.. the latter would be beneficial. 

[ratcityrex]

If your dumping the carb, let me know!

[JACER63]

If your dumping the carb, let me know!

AJ will do.. its an A.E.D prepped 750 holley  w/manual secondarys.. nice clean carb.

[DasPoop]

i will be upset if you ditch the carb oh and the spacers are 129 for a 1" 189 for a 2". lmk if you need help modifying the carb for blow thru

[JACER63]

das, that might be an option if the pricing is right.. after all said and done, a f.a.s.t efi unit is appealing.lmk nog
