Vid of my Mach at VMP

[TurboFox54]

Heres a vid of a couple passes I made in my new Mach soon aftr I bought it from Corey(cmylxgo). The first pass I lifted at the 1/8th to avoid gettin kicked off for lack of a cage. The second one hooked good so I stayed in it and got booted lol Weight with me was 3810 and unfortunately I had lifted a head and was burning a piston by the last pass. Not bad for a hurt motor and only my fourth pass in the car.

I've been makin some changes and updates to the car during this down time.

 

[EVO-lution]

nice runs....i remember one of my friends telling me a guy he knows did the samer thing. because his car was running 10's with no cage. oh well, least u broke the tens

 

[TurboFox54]

Thanks....It should go well into the 9's once I get it back together. I should have my new motor back later this week.

That car is very sick! it remember it was in the FS section for a while.

What changes have you made?

 

[TurboFox54]

Yeah Corey put a lot into the car and it was well worth the price. I just got a bad batch of Cam 2 gas and burned a piston.The new motor is a 5.3 in a Boss block versus the previous 5.0 stroker in an iron block. I also got an updated set of stage 3 heads that should flow a lil better than my existing stage 3 heads. I upgraded to 3 GT pumps and MDM over the dual GT pumps and modded FPDM that was in it. I've also switched over to a PMAS airmeter in my 3.5" intake pipe instead of the old style Pro-M meter. I also added a Alky Control Meth kit to get some more octane. I actually already had the 5.3 in and running but we had an issue with the rings being faulty so it got sent back to the builder. I heard from them today and it looks like I should get it back around the end of the week. They are waiting on a set of ARP cam bolts to finish it up. I also put the battery in the trunk and added coilovers and tubular a arms up front to try to get some weight off the nose.

Nice runs.

You've been busy! Sick car. I contacted Corey a few times about my F1A build. Who is building that 5.3 for you?

 

[TurboFox54]

I have been dealing with Mike at Livernois on the build. They have been good to deal with especially seeing as how I had to take it out and send it back soon after getting it running due to a faulty set of rings. The rings werent their fault but they are standing behind their motor. Corey hated to see it go but I have been updating him and he has an open invite to the next track event.
I am waitin to see what your car does when you put some boost to it. Should be sick!!!

That is definitely good to know. I was looking at Livernois motors whenever my motor decides to go. I am really debating on increasing the boost with this motor because of this mysterious knock I have. I don't know, for right now I am finally enjoying a problem-free car. :beer:

I hear ya there.... I'm prolly not going to push for huge numbers when I get it back together. I just want to get it running good and safe so I can drive it for a while. I bought the car in September and have driven it 50 miles and 4 passes at the track. I should be able to make 725 without havin to push the motor to hard.

 

[cmylxgo]

Dude...that car is a SlugB!tch Car looks like it leaves pretty damn well and goes straight as an arrow. From the vid it looks like either the tires may have been spinning a tad or the 1-2 shift might of been a little too high. Either way really miss that f'in car but I'm glad it went to someone like you to carry on the legacy Can't wait to see what it does in the spring.
