2.8 s400. Manual or auto?
 
not sure yet.. more then likely will stay with the auto for now. id like to do a nv4500
 
For the 2.8 class I would ditch the 100 plate and 4kgsk and go with a 0 plate and 5kgsk... just my $.02 since thats what I am doing for just the 2.6 class :D
 
S400s are pretty popular as well as HX50s and HX60s. The Holsets will need more work though.
 
You had better get a big 13mm pump, 5x25 dual feeds, big cam, and a big 3.0 s400 bushed to a 2.8. Look at Terry coppess or the williams kid that one Schied last year. I dont have a problem with the turbo, but it puts you in a class that you better bring enough to the table to be competitive even. You setup sounds better suited for the 2.6 like the rest of us. Thats why i got rid of my 2.8 because there was no chance for me in that class. Unless you have that kind of jack to spend, then let er rip. Tim

yea I know what your saying. I would love to get a 13mm pump, but I do not plan on lighting the world on fire my first year. I know I will run into many bugs this year. In WI we ONLY have a "super street" class where a 3.0 is allowed. I really have no plans on going that big. we have the national event that comes every year to union grove and thats where I would like to fall into that 2.8 class, and do a few other events like this.


Jpscustoms-- no im on my way to my shop now. stop out if you want. im going to take some pics too:woohoo:
 
Well, I think im WI you dont have to worry too much about super hot trucks....just Garrett Sheilds....but the 5K GSK is going to help out a lot getting you to stay on top of that charger. But Big Stick, Big Turbo, Big wallet are the keys to getting a good pulling truck.

Thats why Im only running 2.6, there is no way I can compete with the 2.8 ITPA guys, heck the 2.6 class is going to be tough enough!

Does your truck always sit at the quick lube in platteville by kwik trip? Im from platteville and pretty sure its you but not sure
 
so this last week I have been cleaning the engine bay. I hid the entire engine harness and removed the A/C, one battery and grid heater.

how much work was it moving everything? Looks like it might be a little time involving but man it sure looks clean now!
 
thanks, its CLEANED and waxed ;) so it looks even better!! if your motivated it doesnt take longer then a saturday. most trouble is mounting the computer, its a odd angle. also have to drill one hole from the bottom up for the trans wires. if you dont have the stock fuel system a 18v milwaukee drill will fit under/in there. I deleted my a/c (really naked now with out the lines and canister) but it looks as that is the only wires you may have to extend. (2) wires to the top of the canister. just a fyi make sure to buy some rubber groments so you do not wear the shielding off the wires after time
 
more info on how you did that wire tuck? i wanna do mine just cuz its a pain in the arse when doing engine work, i could care less how it looks.

how do you get the PCM up into the cowl? did you have to cut a hole for it to fit in?
 
thanks. i might tackle this task sometime soon. do any connectors need to be extended or anything or is it as simple as this looks? i have amanual tranny so no tranny harness to worry about
 
i think the only one he would have had to extend was for the ac, but hes not running it so it wasnt a problem
