the car is running rich, to rich which wont let it idle...now we have to wait for a tune. I may just go ahead and lean up the tune a little see if the black smoke minimizes

darn, get that video and pics up! lol good job man!

itschristorres8 · June 22nd, 2008, 11:14 PM

I got a new belt. Tomorrow I'm going to make the tune a little leaner by 2% and retard the timing a degree or two on the lower RPMs
until I can get a hold of VMP tuning

Its a sweet build

MyGT · June 23rd, 2008, 04:25 PM

very nice

04mustang232 · June 23rd, 2008, 04:42 PM

i still have trouble dealing with the fact that a young kid, this would be you chris, can pull a motor out, build a killer 4.2, put it in, procharge it, tune it, with great results like this. amazing job man. But, fuck your amazing florida weather.

ChrisJ · June 23rd, 2008, 05:38 PM

Nice bro...

get a gt bumper bro...I dont know hwo that would sound dumped...

obdnanr · June 23rd, 2008, 06:28 PM

yeah, i was thinking dumping it after the mufflers because i would just have to take two clamps off and yank the shit off. but if i got the bumper it would look like an 8 from the back :/.

chris owns! cant wait to see the dyno numbers

ChrisJ · June 23rd, 2008, 06:30 PM

Nah put a V6 emblem where the GT is on the GT's I think it would look great...

itschristorres8 · June 23rd, 2008, 09:52 PM

V6 emblems ftw

thank you thank you guys, comes with hard work and lots of hours
Tomorrow im dumping out the oil, advancing the spark a little more cause the idle is kinda choppy, then new oil and adjust the clutch and break in should start. Hopefully dyno this bitch soon.

Oh also the procharger is coming off. To be totally safe and a good break in I wana run it n/a
run it 50 miles then change the oil again ...blah..lol

ESG-642T · June 23rd, 2008, 09:55 PM

break it in with the procharger

get it used to boost ftw

itschristorres8 · June 23rd, 2008, 10:15 PM

breaking in a motor with boost is not a smart idea
the bearings need to seat properly
boosting a fresh motor with new rings and bearings is an easy way to waste money

People do it:
Low boost w/no problems.

obdnanr · June 24th, 2008, 11:55 AM

a 2.95 pulley isnt low boost, its probably around 20-21 psi on my setup. less he wants to put the 4.00 back on, eww

obdnanr · June 24th, 2008, 03:44 PM
