• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Dan.. Anthony Smith is selling 300m's for about $100 lower than ZZP, might be a win for you. 3.29's will actually make it easier to leave the line, 2.93's would have a tendency to spin faster with less rpm and since you have plenty of power to break them free... you get the point. Although the top end suffers a little based on the gearing.

You should probably have the pins welded on the ISS reluctor as well.
 
I did see that FS thread and have been thinkinng about it for sure... been spending too much money lately and havent pulled the trigger yet. If only i could magically come up with 2700 for Swig's trans if he doesnt sell it first LOL.
... weld pins when trans apart.. check :th_thumbsup-wink:
 
pic updates. Got some stuff done today... Had to play with the wiring in my subpanel to my shop... and ended up wiring the Tig welder direct to the 100amp breaker. LOL i consulted my electrician buddy first to be safe. Still a little work to do. fmhe and turbo IC are mounted. Just have to get the right fittings for the coolant lines and i ordered up a few IC piping pieces.

Looking awesome Dan.

Did you have the aluminum subframe before? Some of the locals with good horse found they started breaking the welds with a few hard launches. Just something to keep an eye on.

IC pump relay neatly tucked in. I also discovered that on the side of the engine bay fuse box, are slots that allow you to slide a Delphi fuse holder onto the side of it for perfect mounting!

I think phil was right in the last thread, the pump may push the water through the one core and not the other. Even if they are the same diameter hoses, the distance and resistance of gravity may cause issues for flow to 1 core.
