Jesus.. Its never going to stop.. Its his record now.. Let it be.

BRO, there was curb rash on your wheels and its totally not there during the tear down.. Like, wtf?
 
just in case someone missed it where even mike said the record was Ostar..here is his quote.

Congratulations Fernando!! Hard work does payoff. I had a feeling when we spoke last week you would do it and you did. I can certainly relate to how great it feels to not only run your first 9 second pass, but to also break the record. It is now yours my friend! Job well done. :thumb:

Maybe I should pull my stock block off the engine stand out of retirement? Nah. :D

Agreed. Seems like alot of people are doing everything they can to discredit this record, just anything at all to make it not count. I don't know if it's out of fear or what, bt it's starting to get old real fast :|. I mean is anyone else even close to this record except Mike? Seems like alot of guys doing alot of talking who have yet to accomplish anything, or even run their cars:rolleyes:. I'd just leave the talk and whatnot for race season when people are actually starting to accomplish stuff instead of now looking for any reason to discredit the competition cause you may not be able to get it done.
 
Have you ever tried making a 8 second pass in a 800+hp car? It is pretty difficult.
Everything has to be spot on and the car just has to work.


No, but I did do a 10.50's @ 147 once, with a 2.1 60ft. The car fell on it's face out the hole. T-67 w/ 100 shot. It broke on the next pass, so never back it up and parted the car out soon after. I still count the 11.20 @ 136 w/ a 1.9 60 ft, as my fastest pass at the track. On that pass it spun hard with the stock all season tires. My current setup is pretty slow, but feels kind of strong for a street car.

So as you can see from your experience that even if you have enough HP getting it down the track full tilt can be pretty difficult.
 
I love how it even bogged on that pass. There had to be 3-5tenths lost right there.

Do you have aem ems on the car still? No problems with the 1g knock sensor?
 
Armandotech, how far did the evo 8 springs and retainers take you before changing them out?

We ran 10.2@139 with hks 272 and evo 8 springs and retainers and revving to 8000 rpms, the car currently has kiggly springs and retainers
 
Congrats on the time. That is really squeezing a lot out of a stock bottom end. I was also trying to beat Riz to the single digit time but fell short with a 10.09 @ 139. Major difference was I was on stock head bolts and gasket, stock valves and valve springs as well. Oh and pump gas with methanol injection.

Ahhhhh, that stock block record is for the birds. After seeing the aftermath, of the current record holder. It doesn't seem woth the effort. My car is currently having Eagle rods and Aries pistons installed with arp main studs. We'll see how my car likes 43-44 psi this spring. Do you still have tour car? If so what plans do you have for your beast?

LOL Everyone is entitled to their opinion on the matter, I guess ;). I sought out to try to beat this record and had to do so by trying new things and being bold. I think it's well worth the trouble to find out just how much our 4g63 block can take in stock form. The car is getting a few changes done and a fresh stock block as we speak, so It should be done in the next few weeks. The plan is to run the stock block until May and then slap on the a built block to try to hit 8s before the shootout.

did it blow up going through the traps? LOL

congrats
We lost rod number 3 but here is the video of me taking it apart to set the record straight. I must say that we beat the piss out of that block :hellyeah:
(one season of 600+whp)

So you're driving it all the way to the shootout, correct? :p I'm meeting up with several people from Florida before heading north to the shootout this year - I'd love to see your car on the way up there. Hell, maybe even grab a bite at some cheap interstate restaurant and talk about scattering bottom ends.

Any details on the built block you're going to be dropping in for this years shootout, or is this a hush-hush operation? :shhh:

Hell that's not a bad idea LOL :thumb: Sure thing brother just shoot me a PM a few days before.

NO hush hush here. We build motors that we can sell to customers so HUSH HUSH would defeat my purpose. We are still debating between a 2.0L std or a 2.0L long rod setup. Compression is still up on the air and rods will be GRP with L19 rod bolt upgrade.

Video looks fake!!!!!!!!! Its videoshopped!!!! LOL JK!!!

I'm a fan. :thumb:
 
Roger that. We'll have a heck of a caravan. I'm packing spare heads in the trunk just in case something goes on the way. I'm sure you'll have enough blocks laying around. :p

Ya know, it'd likely be a good promotion for you guys as well. "We built this, drove it all the way to Ohio, raced a bit, drove around, and then drove it all the way back with no issues. " I mean, how impressive is that? Then again it's not as crazy as some people we know driving their GVR4 all the damn way from California just to hang out for 2 days. :D

Any idea with what Turbo you're going to be slapping on her?

Forget the haters bro keep doing your thing.
I wish I knew how I could bring my car down there for you guys to tune. :hellyeah:uys
 
Man thats crazy, but what I found kind of interesting.

I spun a bearing on my engine, Was the #3 rod.
My friend had a 7 bolt, Throwed the rod in exact same spot #3 rod.

Idk if its just me, but I see a pattern? Maybe not idk.

Well the bearings looked fine so its not a bearing issue but I'm 99.9% sure we had a wrist pin fail.
