Center section of the MBRP exhaust was destroyed. Sourced this section from MBRP and rebuilt the front portion to mate up to the ARH header's. Since my aluminum housing 373 diff was destroyed, ive replaced it with an iron housing 355. Back in action!!! First time ive really driven it since it made 1275whp with the f1a94, shits fast....

Glad to see the car back out rolling! We've got a QA1 CF coming for the wife's car also!
I need to catch up on your progress, i pretty much zoned out for the last 6 months. Any info on the double DS loop you talked about?? The qa1 has been smooth thus far, only been about 130mph but should be good.

Hasn’t been much progress, pulled the trans, tore down the block, and found a crack running across the entire back of the block, through the valley, and up into the water jackets lol

Got a new gen 3 block and crank, and took it all to Holbrook with the rods and pistons and them comb through it all to see if we could reuse the rest of the rotating assembly. They gave us a clean BOH and engine assembly started last week on it!

Transmission should be back this week or early next from Pure Drivetrain Solutions with a few upgrades that should last us well through the season!

Once we get the drivetrain back in it I’ll start fiddling with the loop so I know it’ll adequately clear everything

The differential seemed a touch louder from the cabin once i installed the Steeda add in bushings, carbon DS calmed down that additional noise. Hopefully the carbon DS can handle the 60ft's!

Are you going to sleeve the new block ?
Why a new crank ?

You don't hear much about coyote intake manifolds splitting under boost, but if it happens it can be a big deal. Current intake is a ported 2018 unit. I plan to pull it and use it on my NA Fox build. The solution for the 2016 will be based on the ultra popular Edelbrock unit.....

5min out of the box. How can i make this better???? This intake is similar to the Boss, but with a larger cross section and longer runner.

There is considerable casting flash at the port entry and down both walls of each runner. The port where it meets the head severely needs port matched. Due to the shape of the runner, you cannot reach the total length from the head side. Hmmmmmm....
