7 second elapsed times on a budget? We think so!

[4g63rwd]

Okay, okay....by now you guys must think we're crazy or rich (DEFINITELY crazy anyway!). Well, we're doing it again, but this time with a twist! We're building a rear wheel drive, full tube chassis 4G63'd racecar, which we hope will net us some 7 second timeslips! Will we accomplish it? We certainly hope so!! The details of the car are as follows:

1971 "Plymouth Colt" full tube chassis 25.1E NHRA certified car
32.5x14 Goodyears on the rear, Moroso DS-2's on the front
Strange suspension and brakes
Ford 9" rear with 4.11 gears and Strange axles
Custom fiberglass nose straight from Puerto Rico

Engine:
2.0 4G63 with R+R rods and Arias 8.8:1 pistons
Borg Warner S480 (and soon an S475) turbo
Tial wastegate and blowoff valve
Crane Cams
8 160lb/hr injectors
Wilson Manifolds 90mm throttle body
Gato Performance intake and exhaust manifolds
REV valvetrain inside of a ported and polished head
Aeromotive mechanical fuel pump + regulator
Mezeire electric water pump
Griffin radiator

Driveline:
G-Force GF-5R clutchless 5 speed with torsion bar upgrade
RAM adjustable twin disc clutch
custom made driveshaft

Electronics:
Haltech E-8
AEM 5 bar map sensor
Daytona Sensors Methanol Wideband
Painless Wiring

This car was rescued as a project that was scrapped. We bought it and decided to attempt to resurrect it. In some pics you will see some rust on the chromoly and other areas, but we have a sand blaster which will make that all go away. Yes, the car looks ugly, but it's a work in progress, and we won't put it out there until it's right! So....without further ado...........

:dunno:
I don't see the problem. All the busters around here are running g-Force trannies in their budget cars.:rolleyes:

HAHAha that's great!

[4g63rwd]

Guys, I tried to submit pics, but I'm stupid because I can't figure out how? Could someone please let me know what to do to post pics? Thank you!!!

[1timehondalover]

Host them at www.photobucket.com or www.flickr.com and then copy and paste the [IMG] codes into the reply box.

[4g63rwd]

Okay, I'll give that a try. Thanks!!!

[damnDSM]

any update on this?

[4SFED4]

I seen one of those at an auction I was at a few years back and thought of dropping in a 4G. However short wheelbase RWD cars are very tricky to get hooked up.

This thread should be a violation of the rules with no pictures.

It's just a little bit unfair.

POST PICS! :tat:

[4g63rwd]

Oh my god I can't believe anyone actually remembered this thread!! I'll be honest, I forgot it. With my cousin getting killed and it being very busy at work and my everyday grind, it skipped my mind. We're going to New Jersey this weekend (Englishtown) where the car is. I'll try to get some pics of it while we're there.

[edpettit_TSI]

I wouldn't expect this to happen. Aren't you the same group that turned a clean and simple low 9 second car into a 10 second "beast"?
