Im sorry but i dont know much about this car, would you mind sharing some facts. By the look of it, im gonna start guessing its a 42r powered beast.

 

[Bohrn]

powerglide?

whats the estimated power? Whats it weigh?

Gasoline? What do you rev it to?

 

[tunethis]

Nice dragster. It's gonna be even more insane with the boost at 40+ psi.

 

[J-speed99]

I hope you guys bring that thing to the shootout this year.

 

[Jdog]

That is an absolutely astounding car, what are you doing about the ignition breakup?? Smaller plug gap and a really good COP setup?

 

[SICKBIRD]

Good work guys have been following your progress on here for a while way to getter done good luck when you decide to up the boost

 

[94Jettameowpsst]

wow your stall is damn near perfect now.....especially compared to the lack their of before


awesome car!

 

[T man DSM]

I was there Tuesday..the dragster looks great!

 

[olmytsi]

It's already got COP.

And yeah, it's a 42r, filled block running on meth...

 

[Got Grip]

And we'll be at the showdown at Etown this year, most likely along with the other 4G63 powered dragster.

I'm loving the dragster 4g63 dont mess around!

Last night we made it out to Atco Raceway. They only made one run, though they are still happy with the results. The car went 7.77 @ 171. This was on 36 pounds of boost, short shifting (shift light was set wrong), and the car still running very rich.

I'm posting a copy of the timeslip. A video should be posted by Friday.

More boost always does better

 

[gstryyder]

That thing is Nuckin Futs!! Geeze. I would love to see that thing up close!

 

[Got Grip]

We're going to try to make it to Atco on Sunday for some more passes if anyone is interested in checking the car out. I'll try to post tomorrow night to let everyone know we're going for certain.

Awesome job , that thing is impressive as hell.

Sean, come introduce yourself at the track, otherwise I'll have no idea who you are. I think if you tell me you're the "Project 9's no compromise guy" I'll realize who it is.

That goes for anyone else from any forums that's been following the car and see's us at the track. We have a ton of people that say they're going to show up and watch it and I never know who is who if they don't introduce themselves. Just introduce yourself as long as we're not thrashing trying to get ready for a run or something. We try to take the time out to talk to everyone if we can. There can obviously be situations where we can't talk though and I apologize for that in advance.

I'll be sure to post back tomorrow night after we get the car back together to let you know we're going for sure.

 

[snowborder714]

Have you taken it apart far enough to find if there is a problem?

 

[Got Grip]

Car is all back together and loaded up for Atco tomorrow. We should be getting there around 9:00. Hopefully we'll see some of you there.

Son of a biotch......doing a head swap on the daily today. Crap, otherwise would love to come down and hang out.

Good luck today,

Sean take vids or at least pics

 

[Slippi84]

Dam I just woke up and he said he's rolling up at 9. I honestly don't want to go up if he's not running anymore. SHIT!

 

[SICKBIRD]

Love how that thing sound at idle it almost has a v8 sound to it but as soon as you get above idle the 4 cylinder sound is back

 

[Got Grip]

No decent numbers to report from today. We're going to probably be on a hiatus as my dad is going on vacation for a few weeks and I don't think we'll have the chance to get it back out before he leaves. I'm hoping we're onto something to make the car faster even at these low boost settings next time out, although we don't plan on keeping the boost low for long.

In lieu of decent numbers to report from today, I'll offer another perspective on the 7.77 pass:

This camera was borrowed from my brother in-law for this pass. I think we're going to have to buy one, the footage was sweet!
