Id like to see a timeslip of the 9.6x pass. There are some whipple cars here on pullies smaller than the 3.50 and they arent going 9.60s at probably 500 pounds less weight.
Very nice! Youll have to let me know how that turns out. I have been planning a little and was thinking an IMS850 kit would be enough for me but maybe not lol.
What does something like this run at a track? I really considered one of these as I needed a tow vehicle and something fun. I ended up with a 2020 RS3 and the wife got a 2022 Atlas for pulling/hauling duties instead.
I remember this car being an icon (to me anyway) of LS performance back when I was getting into cars. A perfect example of a fast street car. Looking forward to seeing it cleaning the streets of Mexico.
Hey John!
I'm looking into putting a motor together and I love the combo you went with. I have started a little parts sheet and was hoping you could take a quick peak and see if I missed anything:
The prices are mostly quick Google searches so pay no attention there. I'm looking to see if...
In my experience weight doesnt affect it too much as you are already moving fast enough. I can tell you my car went 5.96 and trapped 138 at ~3700 pounds.
This is the general consensus I have found:
whp 60-130 s
400 10
450 9
500 8
550 7.5
600 7
650 6.5
700 6
750 5.5
800 5
900 4.5
I think my...
Thanks for the detailed responses guys. I really appreciate the insight from all sides.
For reference, the car has a VMP gen 3 setup at this time. I would like to see the car run bottom 9s and 150 trap speed. I think at this point it would be out of fuel pump and maybe injector so that's...
I know there aren't many people using forums anymore, but I was hoping a couple guys with 11-14 cars might still be here. I am looking for a ballpark price on building a gen 1 coyote from guys who have had it done. I was quoted $2500 to have the motor pulled and installed, and $7500 for a...
Thats fast. Can I get a reminder of mods and roughly what you have into it? I'm shopping for a 4 door and this is on the list. Seems there are a lot of duds out there for every fast one. Fueling issues galore..
4. What brand? Streetable I assume?
I have been looking at brakes as well.
Ever think about a tubular front end? RSM makes a street one for the S197 thats 63 pounds off the front. I have been eyeing that too..
Sorry I didnt see this until now. My car is 3540 with a full tank. I'm 200ish so I'm guessing on race day it was shy of 3700 with a 1/2 tank. It hooks well, 1.51 60 foot and I was still dialing it in. I added an ARB since then and a catback (my 9.9 was with stock OAP and mufflers lol). I have...
I actually ran out of fuel on 93 with no BAP, just VMP rails and ID1000s. My tuner said he thought it could be a weak pump (45k miles) so I could either buy a BAP or a fuel system. Since I wanted to go E85 eventually anyway, I just pulled the trigger on a dual pump return style setup and called...
Yea it will live. I have a gen1 coyote with a gen 3 (not the R) on a 92mm and I run E85. I'm guessing it makes 650whp or so. Its an auto, so a manual might actually be even stronger. I've been a best of [email protected] and best trap of 138.8 so its making some power. I have a driveshaft, and a dual...
