a little winter time progress

 

Maybe we can see what the iron heads can really do now. After nuking mine I'm still curious what a wrung out iron head motor will do.

 

yeah i wish i had them flowed before i put them on...i wouldnt say they are 100% or anything but they did have nice work done to them.

spring cant get her soon enough, i have a lot of tuning to do still....which im slowly learning how to do myself

 

well the clutch is in and i got to take it for a little drive today since the weather warmed up to almost 40*

so far im happy with it, its a little grabby but its not bad at all. it slips just enough to make it streetable. im sure once i get used to it a bit there wont be any complaints from me.

im going to break it in as the company suggests so i didnt really do anything but normal driving but it is holding past where the stock clutch failed so two thumbs up so far

 

its about time! lol. can't wait to see the results of it all

 

haha yeah i know, if only i had endless amount of money i cant wait to see what the car can do either it sucks ill have to wait a couple more months to really get it out and play. ive been waiting for years to finally have this car the way i wanted it.

im really hoping to have it painted and tuned in time to go to thirdgenfest next year...money permitting lol

 

just a little teaser bump

nothing new really, its sitting on two flats in the garage. soon as it cools down im going to put the front end back on it and try to get some tires so that i can get it back on the road a little this year.

i bought a new truck so i dont see any real progress happening anytime soon...its a lifelong project ill get back to it eventually. At least the hood is on it

 

how long you been waitin for it to warm up and now that everyone wants to come to FL to cool off...you gotta wait for it to cool off up there? lol...j/k. keep us posted!

 

Lol its been 110-116 with heat index up here, it's stupid hot. I started it about a month ago and drove it to other side of garage. That's about as far as it has moved this year.

 

do u have pics showing how u filled the holes for the spoiler???
im debating eliminating the spoiler off mine, but i dont know yet.

somone had installed a firebird poiler on mine and drilled new holes, so even if i installed the original 3 piece one back on id still have 4 holes to fill

should be some on there

 

thanks

 

any updates.........been a month?

 

Where can i get a set of turbo headers for my 3.4 camaro?

 

In your garage, after you make them.

 

agree with 34blazer. Its the way to do it, or pay someone to do it. I was going to make a few sets to sell this winter but i figured most people didnt want to pay 450 bucks for front facing tube turbo headers....

 

yup everyone wants them but wont/cant pay for them , the problem with producing them in small numbers is the cost is high , and there arent enough ppl who want them to make mass producing them to get cost low worthwhile

 

Is it possible to put twin turbo on a 3.4 and would it hold it?

 

Is it possible to flip stock headers and use them for the turbo manifolds?

 

Yes, you can twin turbo anything...

No, flipping manifolds doesn't really work.

 

Well....no progress but I put the rims and tires on it. Hopefully body shop will be next.

 

I thought you died...

 

man its been a few years , nice to see ur still working on getting it done , thats going to be one hell of a nice car when u do finally get it done

 

Lol no not dead..just kids and life took over for a while. Im aiming for it to be put back together by spring then ill start preparing it to be started again.

I gotta re download all the tuning software and tunes since I lost that hard drive due to a virus.

 

i still have my laptop from then sitting in the closet i may very well still have ur tunes. if nothing else the last tune is still i the ecm

 

This should give me a few extra hp..finally covered and installed.

 

if u ever get a chance u should upgrade that hybrid on it to one of these

i dont rember though what size injectors r in it?

 

Umm...big ones lol. I dont remember either

 

the sizing will be under the engine constants when u hookup the laptop, so u will still be able to find out, for some reason 36 or 40# sticks out to me , but so does 50#

 

Damm those gt35s are getting low in cost. Great sized turbo btw for our v6s..

 

48lb Bosch...most of specs and tunes are on this thread I think

 

yup plenty of injector for the gt3582

 

Why is that a better turbo?

 

Why is that a better turbo?

 

more efficiant
faster spool
cooler air temps
lots more overall power potential
and last but not least more power with less boost presure

its new tech stuff compared to the t3/t4 hybrid

 

New seats and carpet

 

Hey Man, ive been following this build for about 3 years now! I thought you died too, i'm glad to see it back up again! I have a 3.4l Jeep Comanche ive been building immitating your exact build actually, so thank you! I'm in the process of attempting to make headers for it now! id be interested in buying this section (see Image) from you at your named price! give me a DM!


Thanks man! Glad to see this beast is still alive!

and yes i actually started the car today....fired up like a champ so i may be able to drive it home from body shop. once its back together ill post more and start tuning again...i hope lol

 

Put a few miles on the old girl past few weeks. Going to hook up to computer soon as I get a chance. Pulls pretty hard.

 

car looks great man , glad to see u are driving it now , how many years has it been since i was there ?


the car looks awesome just a lil hotwheel ish with those 5th gen wheels , just my opionion but i think it would look way better with a set of ronals or z06 wheels that arent so big



if u need help with the tune let me know

 

It still lives if anyone was wondering. Changed it up a little this week.

 

Cool 😎

 

so the mild steel is holding up well? good to know. i've been worried about mine, thinking maybe i should have went with 321 stainless.

 

Bump

I need to read this. I'm looking to so the same build or similar
