I'll try the 154 and if it still does it i'll silicone it in place.

Tried the 111 and it seems to be holding. But now my exhaust gasket blew out and valve covers are leaking. So now I get to pull the intake, cooler core and valve covers off, again. Yay me. However its running very very well. I hit some massive belt slip at 9psi but that should be cured shortly.

That's why I like turbo over supercharger, no belt slippage.

Its only because its making too much power for my setup. As soon as I slow the blower down it'll be fine. And I like blowers over turbos because I can pass smog, have instant boost oh and pass smog.

This car will soon be for sale for a real fast car. No more worthless ford crap.

Don't know how fast a house can go but i'll find out.

I hollowed mine out and move it to the intake, sucks good, theres always some oil in the filter from it.

This thing get dynoed yet?

So friday was fun, I guess. I found out that the car is well capable of 600rwhp on race fuel. Since I was running pump gas and didnt wan't to fuck things up, Steve made slow pulls to see where it would make about 12-14psi. Unfortunately we didnt even make it that far. He started the run around 3k and by 4200 it hit 10.81psi. Massive belt slip happened and he shut it down, he said its likely it slipped so bad because how hard the boost came on. So I need to track down a 3.7" blower pulley to bring it down to around 13psi at 6200. He said even then, its going to make 500rwhp no problem.

Then on the drive home I had the wonderful event of hearing BINK. Broken rocker stud, spent all day today fixing it and other shit I missed. Found out the core of the aftercooler was so mucked up thats why it wasn't flowing. Tossed it in the washer for a few hours and ran some solvents through it and its much better, but still not close to what it needs to be.

Also found out the bypass wasnt even hooked up at all, neither was the vacuum line for it. So I replumed it, added the vacuum line and changed the plugs and plug wires. The car is running MUCH better then it was yesterday. Very pleased so far. Also since the bypass is the way it should be now, the blower reversion has stopped and the car should pass smog.

Car made 372.2rwhp and 420rwtq at 4200 rpm. It has ALOT more to go...

:smack:

Everything that's needed to refine the interior and/or finish the car is on the way, NT05's are mounted on the back. Washed and claybared it today as well. Everything should be in monday-tuesday. Then smog and registration.
