it will be all torn down by then and parts out for coating/polishing,but swing by anyways,you can see the changes ive made too mine:tup:
right we looked at that option,but not only would it put them to high it would also place them way to far back especially on the drivers side
We were approached by the owner of a stock 93 Typhoon about building the truck and retaining the 4.3 V6.
Since I (lead tech/fabricator here) had already built myself a twin turbo LS1 powered Typhoon that consistently runs 9's on pump fuel, it wasn't hard to show him the advantages of switching to LS power.:lol:
Going into the truck is a 427ci LSX shortblock built by Texas Speed. 226/230 115lsa comp hyd roller cam, TFS 245 heads and an LS2 intake manifold.
Exhaust is dual 3 inch downpipes going into a Magnaflow muffler with dual 3in inlets and a single 3.5in outlet.
Trans is a customer supplied Rossler 4L80E.
Rearend is a Strange 12-bolt with a tru-trac diff.
The stock front torsion bars and control arms were replaced with a coil over setup from RPM.
Turbo system consists of flipped/modded 2010 Camaro manifolds, Precision 6262 Ball bearing turbos, Precision wastegates and 2 Precision 500hp air/water intercoolers.
Fuel system is twin in-tank walbros, stock fuel lines, 80lb injectors and will be ran with a stock PCM and HP Tuners 3bar speed density operating system.
non taken,the reason for my customer and myself is that for the limited amount of time these trucks are at the track the trade off for the inconvenience just isn't there.And in reality the times that they are at WOT on the street realistically is from stop light to stop light,and no real high speed runs.For me personally with a wife and 2 kids constantly getting in and out of the family truckster its just to big of a pain to justify it,yeah i know crashing would suck,and u probably wouldn't walk away from it,but at this point I just can justify it.Every winter I get the itch to put a cage in and every year it turns in to the same internal argument with myself,however I do have to say that if they ever move the Drag Week schedule back to the mid west I definitely will consider it just so i can run that event,and fwiw there are 2 tracks local to me that allow me to run,one of them never says anything and the other gives me 3 runs w/o any issues,then tells me to slow it down after the 3rd
