my block right now is being sleeved in Cali by a friend and should be getting it back tomorrow or Tuesday.
and just Ported all heads and TB. gonna have all custom Low Comp Pistons and internals made by AlamoAutoSports..
i Will Upload pics really soon.
STAY TUNED..

 

Hope you have a 6 speed or tranny go kaboom.

 

in for outcome

 

says 2001 under his name so

 

Do yourself a favor and do a 6mt swap. What sleeves are you running?

 

Can't wait for the pics.
how much $ you have in the pistons,rods and crank ?
What size turbo are you using and how much boost is your goal ?
Are you building for street or track only ?
Glad to see you did not dissaper,nice come back.
I think I read in a differnt thread some where about your build,by a friend of yours.

 

what comp are you running?

 

 

^^

 

In for video of tranny exploding at 183mph

 

yes while the motor is pulled where gonna work on a clutch swap and for all the internals is gonna b pretty pricey like around 4k but i was saving that money for a ct supercharger
yeah my brother is sexycls!
he has a 02 cl
i have a 01 cl

 

 

sweet. I'm gonne get mine sleeved in a month. As asked before, what comp ratio? What's ur goal? What about valve train (springs/retainers?). Pauter makes forged rods, at $1200 not a bad price. Need to find someone to make me pistons, so let me know what comp ratio u gonna be running and if its cheaper to get 12 pistions rather than 6, I wouldn't mind doing that if ur down for it

 

8.8 :1 Compression ratio is what i heard from the shop.
and im not sure if its cheaper but i could give u the number of the shop here is tx where they make custom internals for J's
im gonna be running a single 3 1/2 inch exhaust and the turbo is gonna be located around the muffler area... do not bash on me for running a greddy t88.. i know its a big turbo but my moms bf totaled his sc300 and he had the t88 on it and sold it to me for 600 bucks
and im making a small estimate with hp im shooting for 600 hp but i could make less or more....
and its gonna be a drag car

 

Very nice. Can u pm me the price for those pistions. Also what rings u gonna have. I couldn't find any avaiable. Street legal still?

 

Is it gonna stay fwd? Also, will it be street legal?

 

it's going to need some beefed up axles too

 

i have to see it to belive it

subscribed

 

waiting for outcome.

 

yikes that sounds pricey, good luck.

 

damn man good luck getting traction with 600hp on a fwd setup

 

sweet, can't wait

 

If light ass hatches making 500 hp can get traction
i dont see why my cl cant?
im just scared of blowing the tranny

 

Just swap in a 3g TL tranny and have no worries

 

dude i've talked to the shop guys today and they are shooting for 700+ with 6?? on tourqe i dont think a stock 6 speed tranny will hold tht

 

I would assume they are using some form of traction bars, slicks, etc.

 

The hatches can get traction because they arent pulling over 3000lbs. They also dont have the torque we have.

The 6MT should be able to handle it. Id be worried about the clutch. But if the clutch, axles and tires can hold the power, something has to break.

Will this be your first high powered 6MT car?

 

i think it will. get a good clutch kit

and axles and tires and suspension set up and motor mounts

 

well i have a ws6 but this will be my first 650+ hp fwd 6 speed

 

oh and yes it will be street legal...

 

The WS6 is a 13sec car, youre looking at building a 12sec FWD car. Thats a huge difference. Its more difficult to drive a FWD car into the 12s then it is to drive a RWD car into the 11s.

 

Every turbo CL timeslip i've seen has been in the mid to high 12's. Even with wheelspin he shouldn't have a problem doing it as long as he learns the track he's racing on.

 

Fuck 12 sec im looking in for 10.50's

 

good luck man thats gonna be real hard to do. are you planning on stripping the car?

 

Your never gonna hit that in our car with fwd.

You might be able to get away with 11's with slicks and nitrous though....

 

Whats your budget?

I wont say 10.5s are impossible, but its going to take alot of money to get there.

 

 

oh fuck yeah im strippin the car!
anyone know any launch control systems?
i wanna go higher than 5 k at the launch

 

5k launch with 700 horses ?
What are you going to use 14" wide slicks under that thing?

 

i envy 19 year olds with money flying out of their ass
