It used to weigh 2190 with driver (190). I would expect 23 something with the turbo stuff.

I am fascinated by your car, and the You Tube videos blow my mind!
What have you done to the cooling system and what are the modifications circled in your picture?
If it is Top Secret, you can just PM me! :lol:

Image
Top Circle is the Coolant Feed / Send from the Thermostat Pocket on the Head Plate is used to adapt a -?AN fitting prolly to pipe fitting.

The Bottom circle one is the turbo oil drain feed back to the pan.. Will will correct if I am wrong on these.

I am pretty Sure Will Has his block Filled with a solid Gasket on the head to block the coolant ports.

Also He has (which you cant see in this shot) another AN to Pipe Thread fitting on the back of the head for the coolant to come back through to the rad.

I am not sure which way he has the water pump set up to move the water however.

Kinda' reminds me of the time that Big Daddy was racing against Darryl Gwynn and Gwynn set a new TF record on that run. It was also on that pass that Garlits had the biggest blow over in recent times on that pass also and the headlines in the National Dragster read: "Gwynn sets new TF record and nobody notices!" Im sure that made Gwynn feel good.

ok.... found #5 burnt piston and #3 blown head gasket.
Going to check boost reference fuel regulator today.

At least my transmission rebuild worked.
Car weight was 2225 with me ( short a couple quarts of oil which I left behind somewhere)

A rear gear change is in the works as I never dreamed of going that fast!!!

Still riding high.
Thanks to all.
Will

I thinks when he actually makes a full pass and gets oodles of vacuum on that crankcase.. less blow by and a dry sump it will be an awesome sight!
