Default It's ALIVE.... !!!!

Just keeping everyone posted on my progress...

I now have about 800 miles on the engine, and installed the supercharger today....

I'm waiting for my 60 # injectors but took a few 50% pulls with it tonight... it is running INSANE!

Entrance ramp to the freeway 50% throttle was hitting 93 mph as I hit the freeway... Of course watching knock and AFR 12.0 and 0 knock

Many thanks to Greg,TJ and Bruce for there help along the way....

Mo, that is bad azz for sure. Tons of work there... should be an absolute monster! I don't think you'll have any problems with the new Z06s.

Thank you for the kind compliments Tony... and everyone.

This so far seems like a real torque monster.. I press the accelerator and the car seems to keep lifting.

Main problem I see now is "hooking up"... I punch it and the back end now wants to come around on me... Before it would at least launch straight HEH.

Hey Bruce, I sent you a PM...

Hi Brian, I'm using Greg's (Blowerworks Gaseous Injection) Water methanol injection, I had the injection nozzle remounted to the bottom of the intake "snorkel"... So it's there , just out of sight...

Best regards,

Mo

LD85,

I will NOT be responsible for the delinquency of other Corvette owners

~Hangs sign " MOrriage Counselling 46 dollars"~

Hi Kev,

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?

Thank you... this thing is a neck snapper... I can now haze the tires going into passing gear LOL...

I'm having to relearn how to launch the car now it wants to come around on me now...

I pulled a run yesterday, not for time, but looking at boost and tweeking the fuel... thus far I have pulled 9.5 pounds of boost @ 4700 rpms .... the best lbs/min on the Maf has been a 54.7 @ 5200 RPM @ 67.9 % throttle.

It's getting dialed in slow but sure...

I was dealling with a misfire issues, I found my fuel filter was "plugged"...

I'll keep everyone posted...

Mo,
The car looks great! Once you get it dialed-in, you need to post some driver-abuse video of it!
