    Who's going to Ennis?

    Looks like I'm going to make it to the World Finals this year (just me, no truck), and was wondering who I might run into while I'm there?

    Double O-rings

    Well, I finally got the truck on the track with the new engine last weekend. Unfortunately, despite my wife's recommendation to "not blow it up on the first pass". I blew the head gasket at around the 1000' mark. I'm running a single O-ring in the block, Extreme Studs@155lbs, 85psi of boost...

    Air Shutoff Cable

    I'm finally getting things together to get back on the track. Now in the process of setting up the air shutdown. I was hoping to run just a standard T handle cable to the back of the shutdown. But it's a pretty contorted path to come in the back, so I've decided to come in the front. Now I'm...

    Which size injector lines with a 13mm pump?i

    I'm finally going to a 13mm pump for my street/strip build. It's a mild pump with the 215 cam, 4k springs, 024 DVs, 093 holders. I'll probably run it set to 650cc with 5x18 or 5x20s. Turbos will range from 63/80 to 66/91. With mostly street use in mind, will I be OK with .084 lines, or should I...

    Mahle Piston Rings

    I'm using Mahle 286210 pistons in my new build. Had the block bored for .008" clearance, and plan on coating the pistons to get about .007" clearance. Pistons fit good. But with the rings that came with the pistons... the top rings just need a little filing to get a .028"gap. Oil rings are a...

    Oversize valves in a 12v head

    I was checking into going with oversize valves in my new head. But after checking with the valve supplier. Head said that .100" oversized valves will require seats to be installed due to cutting through the hardened area of the existing seat to make the valves fit. I'd rather not install seats...

    Like the title says, I'm looking for a shop that does torque plate honing in the Maryland area.

    286210 pistons

    I've decided to go with the Non-IC 286210 pistons on my new engine build. Where's the best place to get them?

    1.10 or 1.32 housing

    I'm getting things together for next year's build, and will probably be running a 66/71/13 over a s491. Question is... I have a 1.10 and 1.32 housing for the s491. Considering I have a 40mm egate on the primary, will the 1.10 work or, is it a little tight, and I should just plan on starting out...

    Turbo Wheel Lightening

    I've got my parts together for building a hybrid GT4718/s400. Both the compressor and turbine wheels could use a diet. Looks like I should be able to trim 100+ grams from both of them combined by drilling the backside of the wheels. I'd be doing this on my mill with a rotary table, so placement...

    Farm Truck back at it

    After losing OD last week, I rebuilt it just in time to make the "Final Call" at 75 & 80 this weekend. This is the last week before my local track is closed for good to make way for a new housing development. As you can see, I saved the best for last. Last time out it was burning a little too...

    47RH No OD

    OD is not engaging. PCM is bypassed. Power is supplied to the OD and Lockup solenoids through a switch, and then there are separate switches to ground out OD and Lockup. Lockup works fine, OD does not. Checking ohms through both coils are about the same in the mid 30s. So both coils are fine...

    GT4718 Shaft Size

    Anybody know the shaft size on a GT4718/4788 where the compressor wheel sits?

    1.32 Turbine Housing

    I'm looking for a 1.32 exhaust housing for a s400 with the 88/96 turbine. I'd consider a 1.10 if the price is right.

    Farm Truck at the Track

    I finally got a good video of my farm truck. The arm on the spring-gate broke at the 1/8 mile mark, and I lost some boost. But still not a bad run. 00040 - YouTube

    88mm cartridge

    I picked up this B/W cartridge with a 88mm compressor wheel. Once it got delivered though, I think it's the old Garrett TV wheels. It has 7 blades, pretty short, barely reaches the recirculation groove. I'm already running one of FI's billet 80mm wheels, and I'm guessing it would be a waste of...

    P-Pump, Turbo

    160hp injector pump, AFC mods, 4GSK, 181s. Front plug is out for dual feeding. This pump made 764hp with Comp DVs in it, now has 181s. Runs good with no issues. Just under 200k miles. I just ordered a fresh set of the green O-rings for it. If you want, I'll install them. If you're going to swap...
