While it's not the exact combination we would recommend for every customer, we tend to push things to the limit. It allows us to give better feedback on what the stock stuff will handle, and it's easier for us to fix things than the average customer.

We always give discounts for Mustang6G Members :cheers:

We have it running, but just haven't had the time to run it what so ever. We will have a new build here shortly that we plan to push pretty hard though!

So chris what would be the recommend driveshaft for a 900hp daily driver? aluminum or CF?

Build... like in a sleeved built motor ?
I really want a Whipple on my GT 350 and was contemplating building a Voodo long block from the ground up .
I would swap with my complete signed OEM motor.
Not looking to make more than 1000 rwhp so may forgoe sleeves but drop compression a little.
I know the arguement for turbos is no pressure on the crank but would hate to muffle that FP crank sound .I am also not a fan of a turbo car with a manual based on my experience with my now KB /Tremec car when it had a TT/MT 82.

I would like to keep the OEM exhaust...at most lose the cats .

So in your opinion supercharger for manual and turbo for autos?

 

[olaosunt]

Only speaking for me and my experience with a manual turbo car .

I think any choice of FI works with an auto and will always be faster than a manual .

I chased 9's forever trying to shift gears(MT82) with my 12 which had a snake bite TVS . I gave up at 10.3@138 ...kept breaking drive line parts (including 2 CF drive shafts )
Car went 9.8 @ 142 first time out after auto swap .....but sold the car soon afterwards as no longer as much fun on the street .

I am hoping to get there this time with 3.2 KB /Tremec combo .
So far it's gone 10.1@148 pulling timing on the big end due high IAT's.
3.5 upper pulley with 20 % lower so likely making similar boost /power as Lethal's car.
Motor is built /sleeved to 5.2 and has GT 350 heads .

Needs more gear with the 2.66 Tremec /3.31 rear ended/28 inch tire as it is a bit of a slug to the 60 and 1/8 (1.6x and 105 -108 mph ) but picks 40+ on the big end .

Going to try a 26 inch tire/2 step before switching the 3.31 rear end for 4.10's.
Also need upgrade the ice tank pump as don't think the Jabsco pump is keeping up .

That's what I was thinking. But that depends on what Whipple and VMP have up there sleeves. Since Eaton came out with the 2.6L. Would love to know what Lethal did to that engine to get it to run 9's with a stock MT82

The engine has not been touched. Valve Covers were never off the car.

So a whipple - drag wheels and tires - a good fuel system - Race fuel of some kind - Driver Mod. What else?

yeah that MPH is up there!

I believe the complete mod list is;

Whipple 2.9L
10 Rib set up ~17 PSI
ID1000s
JMS BAP
DSS 1400 Axles
DSS Aluminum D/S
Wheels and Tires
Vi-king Shocks
Barton Shifter

Unless I'm forgetting something small, that should be it. Engine was never touched, and we're not hiding anything. It was a private track rental and conditions were in our favor.
