Tranny fluid?
This is the small item that just came in:
Samco Hoses

Stay tune for a big item. I hope its in good condition
Jtran just told me that the machine shop is backed up and it will be another 2-3 weeks before my block is complete. They have all the parts but are just waiting on the machine shop. They are suppose to get back to me on how much it'll cost for the 3 angle valve job and port n polish the intake/exhaust runners.

Some interesting reading here! At least for me it was. Makes me wonder how much power I'm actually going to make
Doesn't look very promising. Alex is going to be walking all over me. FU Alex
I was hoping for 520 minimum if I did all this BS. I guess I would need different turbo and some hotside modifications if I want more power................. I knew this but that was if I wanted more than the 540 mark

I was hoping to push over 500 easy on pump and meth. I didn't think I'd need to use race gas. Especially, since I was going to do cams, head n valve work, n possibly headers.
What would suck is that maybe I could make over 500 but how efficient is the turbo going to be. It might at it's limits just like Alex TN lit was n run super hot.
A custom kit like Alexs or twins is the way to go for more power

What would suck is if I do make over 500 n the kit is at it's limits n runs super hot n isn't efficient like Alexs TN.
I guess twin or a custome single lime Alexs is what you need to achieve those numbers. Let's see what happens

u really dont have to tune on race gas when running meth because meth raises your octane level to be on a race gas level not sure how much but ive seen posts say 104 or higher....
that sucks drock but i do think youll get close to 500 but remember its like Jonny told me a while back, does it really matter what the dyno read or that you feel the power and enjoy the car.... when i made the 454 i was upset but none the less the power felt good... as long as you can beat most cars on the street and get 11's at the track i think youll be happy
just think about the money your investing on other things that wont make to much of a difference.... i think thats a mistake i did somewhere along the line but hey you live you learn to teach others !!!!

Anyways, enough of the rant......
Its all good. What ever it makes it makes. I just want it to be a solid number that holds strong.If I could hit a solid 520+ I'll be happy. That'll be ~100 than before. Not 60-80. 60-80 just doesn't seem worth it for all that money. I know I know Big Power doesn't come cheap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Alex, you might win this battle, but you haven't won the war!!!!!!!!
DB, Alex is never gonna get no decals........ how much time has he had already. I'm just glad your taking the initiative and trying to get something out there. I'd say for us to make a decision on one of the ones you came up with.
