EssFo Posted October 29, 2015 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 so 50/50 mix then? i think thats what the boost juice is Yes. The AEM system doesn't support more than 50% meth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKilbourne Posted October 29, 2015 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 I really want to know what this thing traps in the 1/4... Most likely in the 125-128 range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88lx5oh Posted October 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 Most likely in the 125-128 range I'll see next year when it has Drag radials and half shafts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC K9 Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 Most likely in the 125-128 range Not bad. How much more work/money would it take to be 130+? I want to make the jump to V8 eventually, but after having tasted 130+ with the potential to be even faster, I know i'd be disappointed at spending 4x the money on a new platform to not be at least as fast as what I have can do now. Yeah, theoretically the V8 should be less maintenance and work, but again, for 4x the cost, it's hard for me to make that justification right now. Either way, this car looks pretty amazing, and i'm looking forward to seeing what it actually traps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88lx5oh Posted December 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 a few more things got ordered or installed. ended up ditching the steed shifter base bushing in favor of a Full Tilt Boogie shifter bracket, and shift arm bushings. got my ARP Flywheel bolts and McLeod Lightened steel flywheel to go with my McLeod Twin Disc Clutch. Tomorrow i head down to pick up DSS Half Shafts at Carlyle Racing. i talked with Travis Boundary @ Boundary Engineering today about his Chromoly Billet oil pump gears, and ill be ordering a set of those, but asked him about lower timing gear/crank gear, which at the moment he does not make, but after talking with him, and explaining the need, and the want from a lot of coyote motor guys he is going to start the R&D on it, so ill be getting that as well when it is finished. so in about a month or so, the car will get torn down to start putting the new parts in, and will only be a set of drag radials away from making some passes at the track. which i have already been talking to Derek about the Nitto NT05R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC K9 Posted December 24, 2015 Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 Engine wise, (and maybe Brian can chime in here) what is a boosted stock 5.0 coyote believed to be able to handle power wise? I have heard the 2015's have better internals and heads, than previous years, likened to the boss 302 motors. and I have "heard" there are some 900whp TT 5.0's down here in DFW. Could I get 800-850whp out of a stock 2015 and still get 20000-30000mi out of it, or is it like, a few drag passes at that power on the stock motor and you are needing a new motor?

88lx5oh Posted December 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2015 There are quite a few 900+hpcars are stock motor. Week point is the oil pump gears and lower cam gears. Pretty much anyone making over 550rwhp is doing billet gears in them. Other wise stock motor. It is a boss block aside from the pistons are not forged. They are some specially treated Pistons said to be nearly as good as the forged ones in the boss. Heads are very similar to the boss, but don't flow as good. Very close though. The new coyote is honestly a parts bin motor. But it works very well. Haven't heard of any failures yet on these motors. And there are a decent number of guys in the 9s on stock motor and stock auto trans. I think 2 stock motor mustangs in the 8s now. All full weight cars on stock auto as well.

Probably will when I do my spring install. Question on the rear springs. BMR says to wait to tighten all the nuts and bolts until the car is on the ground, to allow some preload and prevent premature bushing failure. Is that basically just get them all finger tight, lower car to the ground, and then back off a 1/4 turn and then tighten all down to appropriate tq specs? I've never had to do that before...

Coaster Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 I'm interested in that too, the BMR fairy just stopped by my house this morning... Still waiting on sways and toe rods. http://i.imgur.com/QP6PyKJl.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
