I stated highest HP.
My car does not run a 6.5 by any means. and as of now it runs a 0@0mph

btw you have any pics or videos of the V6? I've never heard of it...not calling you a liar just interested because thats a very good time and a bottom 10 high 9 1/4 slip.

It definitely won't do that 1/4 time. It's geared out in the 1/8.
The kid's name is Bobby something. I'll hook you up with him if you get up here in the near future. I'm sure ya'll would have loads of shit to talk about.

I'm searching as well. thanks bro.
with the t5 i'd like to at least hit an 11.5
personally I dont know how long that tranny will stay in, if it does it because I'am not patient enough to wait lol
with the c4 i wana at least run 10.7-10.8

just race weight was 3100lbs 450rwhp, he wont have the power curve i willl, the c4 performs much better then a stock auto especially with a 2step and transbrake. And with some of my new plans i should easily murder Justins weight by about 200-300lbs
only thing is i'd like to do it with my stock wheels and mickeys...
after doing some math stock wheels with tires weigh 41lb in the front and 43-44lbs in the rear with the mickeys

my buddies got 15x10 prostars with mickeys-weighs 22lbs about...
thats a 20lb savings per wheel. 80lbs in total....HUGE DIFFERENCE especially for rotating mass.

I havent picked a K-member i want yet. Qa-1 is lighter then the pro-series one UPR sells. so I may choose that. but i wana research it a little more.
also looking to do coilovers in the back possibly even the the drag springs and lakewoods hold up good.


time will tell. if the stock motor makes the pass i want on the C4 and lives. I might spray a 50-75shot on top of it, once down the track for fun. that should be enough to blow her

[Ninjawafers!]

have fun blowing her... but if you are gonna do that why not go with a 125 shot and have a lot more fun? lol

because with a small shot it sorta stands a chance since it'll be cooling mostly. a 50shot isnt much at all

[Ninjawafers!]

but wouldnt if be a lot more fun with a 125? haha

cant wait to see the full build complete on this thing.

it would depends

right now I cannot find a stock short block anywhere
So in a few weeks if i have no luck I may just skip the idea and order the rods, crank, bearings and rings for the motor. And a few other things.

[Ninjawafers!]

sweet

im still scroungin around for money and some hard to find parts to finish my m90. im actually thinkin about finding a cheap supercoupe, buying it, taking off the parts i need/want, and parting it out

probably the best idea for you, just a matter of find it.

chances are I wont go with the stock motor
i'll end up spending about $300 on it...rods and crank and bearings will cost $500 probably just need to balance it.
stock motor dream will just be pushed back whenever one comes about.

however the stock upper and lower intake will most likely see a trash can or be sold. I've sprung on a new idea.
no reason this next motor shouldnt do my goal even with a C4.

but i'll keep the idea's under the blanket until they actually come through. I might have to put a windstar upper though if I do not get the manifold i want before the v6 challenge

[Ninjawafers!]

sounds good man. like i said before i cant wait to see it all put together. one thing id love to see is you build a badass turbo v6 fox

depending on how things go i might end up sellin the m90 parts i have now and giving the car to my bro (the truck he drives has about had it.. but this will be in a year or so down the road). once i do that ill be looking to buy a vertible 99-04 Saleen 281SC (you can find those around the same price as vertible termis).

Chris what/when is this V6 challenge and where's it located? Sounds like a blast, is there a link? Sorry for the thread jack.

they keep switching the location
v6power.net has the information

its next year in march i think

My planned setup will probably not be ready. My only debate so far will be to go with a power glide or C4

[itschristorres8]

Actually I've talked to Tom Y at SSMS about a short block he has there used for sale.
I left a message just waiting on a call back. I might just buy that motor for some fun time. should make 600rwhp with some moderate boost.
9:5:1 compression which isnt what im exactly looking for but can be fun in the mean time. probably start out with 550rwhp on the motor and build up til that one blows
has a full main girdle. and no balance shaft like i want. So i'll probably just throw a crank scrapper on it and then some of my own heads with big valves

[Ninjawafers!]

good stuff chris. keep us updated

[itschristorres8]

decided on putting a glide in the car. I will tune it with the t5 and break the new motor in with it just to eliminate tranny problems.
after I dyno it i'll probably make a pass on the t5 lightly so i dont blow it so i can sell it later. then throw the power glide in.
it should be the first V6 mustang with a power glide to my knowledge.
most cars in the 550-600range hit bottom/flat 10s with a glide
so should be interesting

Fuel system will be switched to return style. getting probably an 8 or 10gallon cell for the trunk. possibly another 3gallon cell for C16/Q16 depends...-8an lines and a -10 or 12 return. custom -8 fuel rail. and ford 80lbers should be enough.

should be ordering some parts real soon and taking out the motor soon.

Talked with a rep from UPR that i met at the track. going with a Pro Series UPR K-member kit. dont care what anyone says about UPR. lifetime warranty. best fit i hear. real light and THOUSANDS of people run them with out issues

I've spec'd out a new turbo today as well for the car. should spool very quick and capable of plenty of boost. but i'll see what kind of power it lays down and that IATs read with it.

[Ninjawafers!]

sounds great chris... i wanna see vids of you stang with that glide

[itschristorres8]

should be interesting. speaking with the guys at ATF gave me a good estimate for what the car will be running with the power rating i gave him and the tire and gear.
i told him a little less then my actual goal incase i dont hit the goal

[itschristorres8]

Just bought my new racing seat and sliders for it. took out the fuel tank and pumps

tank weighs 36-37lbs btw with out the pumps
