upgrading the cooling system. Picked up a dual LT1 fan setup... it was pretty tough to shoehorn it in! Mounting isn't done but you can see that it will go...

 

I am impressed at the amount of stuff you crammed into that car

 

Just read entire thread from start to finish! :crazy
almost a killer sleeper..... the exhaust through the fenders and the 345's give it away though!

 

Thanks guys!

Little more done.







Fabricated mounts for the fans. Welded tabs on the radiator, drilled and tapped. Made a hanger for the top of the fans.

 

Your fabrication skills amaze every time I scroll through your tread. Nice work

 

No more out of fuel excuses... this will deliver everything that all of my fuel injectors can use, at whatever pressure they will run at.

 

does it matter which way the lt1 fans mount, the plug on top or bottom?

 

factory is bottom for ease of wire routing. you can run the fan either way. ive used them as a pusher fan on my mud truck too. took them out of the shroud and run the fans on their own. cant do that with an ls1, they are intergrated. need to be lt1.

need to get the rubber flaps for them to get all the cooling at low speed.
looks like you did a good job of making them fit.

 

Does this mean we will get to see some full power runs and dyno numbers? Ive been following this awesome build for so long its killing me.

 

bump for updates!

 

I had to relocate the oil filter to make room for the fuel pump drive cable.... finally got that done. The oil filter is now above the passenger through the floor subframe connector near the transmission cooler. 12' of -12AN line later, it works leak free.

I got the cable ordered, still waiting on it to show up. Took the car for a drive yesterday, still working on the Holley tuneup... feels pretty quick!

I picked up a Davis self learning traction control too, have yet to get it running, but it should help a bunch!

Waterman cable:



Hooked to Weldon 6.8 GPM pump:



Connected to dry sump oil pump in front:

 

lol

"how cute! you need 2 walbro 255's"

you're pushing 1545 LPH!

lol, max volume on your pump would empty the tank in about 3 minutes!

 

I hope i dont need more than 2 walbros, as i am not sure i am ready for sumped fuel cell and big pump, especially not that big!

Impressive work! Would love to see what times this setup turns

 

Car is sick.....

 

Little fun from last night. I'm on gates, he's on motor. He stole the hit the first time, I did the second time.


He makes ~850 rwhp on motor (reher Morrison 565 13:1 solid roller, fogger and a plate too). I used enough fuel for 950 flywheel last night.

 

Wow heck of an all motor car! You able to brake boost much? Sounded like you were

 

Yep, didn't matter much. I was snoozing and couldn't catch him.

Here is his setup: http://www.rehermorrison.com/rmEngines.htm

 

lol cool vid! did you take part in any events?

 

?

Just went to Kellers for some hamburgers.

 

Tore the car down again, time for the mechanical pump install.

Draining the fuel


Pump connected to -12 weldon prefilter. Fitting between pump and filter required some grinding to clear pump body... a -10 fitting fit fine, the -12 was a bit too big.

 

Tx2k13? Lol

 

yea, i was asssuming he was there, but i guess i was wrong. lol

keep up with the updates/pics andrew. its a motivation for me.

 

A lot of my friends went (dallas racing guys). I couldn't make it though. I will be at TI next month though.

 

Got the pump mounted and in.... primed it and saw 58-60 psi fuel pressure. Hopefully it works well! Going to route the cable tonight and fire it off....

 

Gawd this is perfect !

 

Also got this thing installed....



Davis traction control add on for holley right next to my boost controller program switch.

 

i dont think that rpo sheet is very useful anymore.

 

Very sweet ride just finished reading the thread and I'm impressed hope someday to have a quarter of the talent required to build this car.

 

Ever wondered what to do when your IAC won't fit on the side of your throttle body because it hits something?

I fabricated a remote IAC setup.

 

Log of the traction control from last night.... I think this is a 40 mph high gear pull on the gates. Not much of one anyway.




You can see the timing retard when the driveshaft rpm spikes up and it kills the spike every time. I suspect I'm giving it too much retard and killing performance, but need more testing to see.

 

Fix the pics! lol

 

What happened to this car?

 

Ya pics don't work

 

Awesome car

 

What ever format you have changed to I and many others can't open the pics. Maybe its me as I have upgraded to new computer with windows 8?

I would like to continue to follow this fantastic build.

 

i believe he sold the car.

 

Anything??

 

he sold the car.
