I've reached a milestone

Subject: I've reached a milestone
by rklessdriver on 2011/5/26 1:35:27

Went to Old Dominion tonight for 1/8th mile test and tune.

I made 2 passes my best tonight was a 7.59@96.1mph, 1.847 60ft. Weather was hot and I couldn't keep the engine temp under 195* by the time I got to the burnout box...

However the milestone moment was I reached 25 passes (since I broke the rear end). The new SPICER UJoints are doing great. My 4.10 rear end is doing great and that SPEC Stage 3 clutch (everybody else says is pure junk) is holding up awesome and you guys have seen the WOT slipping and abuse I put it thru.

I'm really thrilled with how everything is going.

Last weekend I put new TR6 plugs in the car and took the oportunity to run a compression test.

Every cylinder hit between 110-125LBS on the first pump and by 4 pumps it was maxed out on 225LBS. The motor is strong.

BTW that is one hell of a testament to the LTX reverse cooling. 11.66 SCR, 9.0DCR and 225LBS cranking compression all on 92 octane pump gas.

The new TR6 plugs load up really easy at idle and cruise so I think I'm going to have to go back to the TR5's until I can get someone to fix the tune.... Otherwise everything is great.
take care guys.
