Oh my, a Lexan lid on your air box ?????

 

My bores were almost green in color, maybe baby poop green.

 

Hey Buddy I know that what ever you do will be way cool.
I can't wait for more pictures. I love to follow your work.
Good thing I'm not your neighbor, or I would always be over there and either my car would not get done, or I would be in serious debit

this is very rough but starting to take shape. The more I work with fiberglass the more respect those that are really good at it... I problably have about 40hours into it at this point.

 

Sterling, time for an update.
How is it going.
I thought I seen you at the track the other day

Wow.. What a launch. ! I sure hope that's not a chevy motor (didnt sound like it).

 

It's not a stock Chevy motor if that makes you feel better.. :-)






Wonder what Danny is up to, haven't heard from him.

 

Seriously!

That thing looked more like a carrier launch than a drag strip start.


and Sterling, I know exactly what you mean about the fiberglass. I did my MAF splitter in fg and for all the time I have in on it, I still know there are a lot of imperfections that I just couldn't get right. Your intake looks very cool. Can't wait to see the finished product. You should name your car the phoenix because it keeps rising up from it's own ashes stronger and faster than before.

 

IIRC that was back in 2004... here is quote from a post by Danny here on Rennlist from May 2004....

"Just an update, we ran last Saturday and lost in the final due to broken motor. Ran a 4.46 @ 168 mph (1/8th mile) That's approximately 6.80 @ 205+ in the 1/4 mile. Previous best was 4.60 @ 159 mph. We are now also the fastest "backhalf" car in the country. (Backhalf means basically stock front frame rails, suspension, and firewall, but all tube chassis from firewall back.)"

Here are a few threads on Rennlist from Danny.

Sterling, sorry for the hijack...maybe others interested in this car should post in those threads...or suffer the wrath of Sterling...LOL..J/K

Cheers,

Wow. I would never condemn anyone for swapping powerplants. Im more of a Mopar guy. But that said, that car is a monster.

 

Now ..... There is an intake LOL.

Just Bugging you Sterling, we love to watch you work.

 

With only 2000hp.....I wonder what it would do with Individual Throttle Bodies?? :-)

True...would love to be a fly on the wall watching Sterling working with fiberglass and resin!!

Gonna be funny when we get to see the pic of his hand accidentally fiberglassed to a beer bottle after a few drinks!!





Dave
