Should be a decently quick car when finished.....

ultimate Goal is to run an 8 second pass.. I have some work ahead of me to get there, but i will give it my best with what i have to work with.

Got a little work done today. Mounted my panel for the electrical wiring, get the battery cables ran and wired up . Also installed the dash and guage cluster....

GoldieWang

nice build and thanks for the heads up on kmod...I've contemplated dealing with them and you just gave me enough review for my decision! screw those guys for the sloppy work they did.

kr3w108

There is more to the story... that is just a brief summary. lol I wouldnt use them if i was use. KMOD as a company might not be that bad (not saying they are good either) but the machine shop is a joke. Point blank a JOKE!

jayswizz

that dash is sweet! i was thinkin of making one like that, do you have to do anything special when getting rid of the oem cluster or do you just leave everything unplugged and use the tach wire for rpm and wire the rest as normal??

Hasport

looking good. when you are ready to upgrade to solid inserts we can help you with that

kr3w108

As far as i know, i can just leave them unpluged and not effect anything. I will tap into the Blue Rpm signal wire on the pigtail for my new guage to work .

These New inserts should do pretty good compared to what i had before lolz motor looked like it wanted to jump out under load.

jayswizz

that is what i figured. build looks awesome man keep goin! i did the same thing late last season i went 2-3-2 lol, somehow i got lucky and only bent all 8 exhaust valves with no damage to the pistons. i still feel your pain tho, i only had like 20 passes on the build lol

Hasport

yes the 94a red urethane should hold up pretty good and yeah if you had the 62a street urethane before yeah ive seen that happen

good luck in your quest for 8s

kr3w108

I had to replace everything except the rods lol

Thank you !

awesome!!!!!

Yay wiring........ Got all the cluster wires extended, routed all the wires for the gauges and switch harness. I have very little time to work on the car so progress is very slow.....

kr3w108

Finished wiring the board . Just need to make a few more connections else where and the wiring should be complete .

whoa, so many wires!! looks great and organized though

kr3w108

Lol Its not really that many... some of the gauges require a constant 12v and a switched for the back lighting. The hardest part was getting around inside the car for the cage made it very difficult . I think my back still hurts........

If i have an arc8000 I would only had to run one wire to each component that i was powering vs power and grounds..... This setup was cheaper and the little extra work doesnt bother me .

Great work . . . looks like it's coming together nicely
