Sounds so nasty!
|
Thanks, I'll have to have one of the boys get a decent idle walk around. Sounds pretty okay idle too!
|
gorgeous....
with LC you might beat the Evo? :) |
Man I don't think I'd ever buy one over a vette but **** that things lines are incredible, timeless design.
|
I think the Viper is done for now.. I started working on the galant :)

oooo, pretty
|
Oo galant. What are the plans?
|
I'm not really sure lol. Weekend warrior I guess. Not fast enough to be a dedicated race car, and I don't really want to cage it.

in4more galant.

Thumbs up on the photos of the Viper -- the paint looks wet still even in the photos.

Well I haven't really done much to the Viper, except recently I'm dailying it. I did something probably regrettable to the truck and ran into a little snag so I'm waiting on overnight parts from Japan. The plan was to have it complete over the weekend and continue it's daily duty..
I've been working on it the last few months. Tapped the oil pan a few oil changes ago. Put a duramax intercooler/rad set up in it, then did the cold side tubing, and ran it with the maf on the other side of the IC lol. I finally decided to make it chooch, but the manifold I had previously made hit the firewall because I assumed it would fit, rather than actually test fit. So, I spent the majority of Saturday reworking that, which put me behind quite a bit. I got the crossover pipe from the drivers bank done Sunday, and welded up the hot side charge pipe. Pretty much just have heatercore hoses to lengthen, and an oil feed adapter I'm waiting on. Pretty basic sloppy recipe: Billet 7875 Walbro 450 decaps https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1946/...367dfe7a_c.jpg20181006_203223 https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1937/...e13a7fc0_c.jpg20180930_211610 https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1915/...c0efd11c_c.jpg20181006_203338 https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1956/...5bc2a1bb_c.jpg20181007_155234 https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1907/...15d2fec3_c.jpg20180929_182312 https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1948/...51a10b8d_c.jpg20180929_185648 Edit: Oh yeah, I lowered the crap out of it with drop keys, hangers, shackles, even cut the rear hangers off and moved them up on the frame. It's about as low as it will go until I C notch it(I need to anyway) Annnd I think the driveshaft is now too long. |
This is relevant to my interests. More.
|
loving the truck, especially the front end swap.
|
Hmmm interested to see how the truck turns out. What engine is in it? What are you tuning with?
|
Stock 6.0, 80e and Hptunaz
https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1931/...81c31174_c.jpg20180923_134459 dat premature fake side exit I drove around with for about 4 months lol https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1907/...198f86b5_c.jpg20180923_202522 |
When putting in the Duramax stuff:
https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1964/...20928917_c.jpg20180810_202258 https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1956/...87931720_c.jpg20180810_202113 Was pretty straight forward. The diesel rad didnt have an engine oil cooler built into it, so I put an external on. (not pictured) The gasser trans cooler lines are much smaller, so I chopped the end off the duramax adapters and welded in the original fittings. For the return fitting I just removed the fuel tank pressure sensor and drilled the hole out a little bit. Also, I learned you can use AN fittings on standard rubber hose lol. I didnt have any other sort of bulkhead fittings at the shop so I just do'd it. https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1909/...532248bd_c.jpg20180922_192319 And finally, a completed downpipe that mates up to the stock exhaust. Well almost complete. I will be recirculating the wastegate, but I'm waiting on a flex section for it. https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1921/...210a7185_c.jpg20181009_211919 This was done with all spare stuff. I've bought a few new vbands, some reducing couplers that I ended up not needing anyway. Even after the hp tuners credits, flowing/cleaning injectors, etc, I'll be in this less than $1500. |
|
That's a proper sloppy build.
|
I got the injector data back from the decaps today. They're on their way back.
https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1945/...a8210289_c.jpg15391844220774178571442436135406 Pretty cool to see this. I'm really glad I had these checked rather than throwing 8 in at random. Two of them were junk, which could have ended badly. Well worth the $145. Which included new o rings, filter baskets and pintle caps. Couldn't be happier. |
I should probably start a new thread for the truck.
But, I hit a deer. Er' a deer hit me, so "while we're already in there" .. I've got a sickness Eww, not teabag for an 06' though https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1934/...865bb52b_c.jpgIMG_2981 Ground down https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1969/...fc3cdb4a_c.jpg20181022_181614 Rust converter https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1960/...535cb296_c.jpg20181022_193027 Por15 https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1962/...f9a1928a_c.jpgIMG_3022 Full exhaust lol https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1953/...3d6ac434_c.jpgPhoto 10 Boos gauge https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1931/...7f76fc09_c.jpg20181021_172101 Relocated coil so I don't smoke any more wires lol https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1953/...992728cf_c.jpgIMG_3045 |
