Bertha,picking up where Shewheeler left off.

HP gain in relation to Dimpled Holes can be calculated with a complex algorithm based on the thickness of the material vs. the diameter of said dimpled hole raised to the power equal to the element number of Iron on the periodic table.

Lol awesome :thumb:
 
Nothing too exciting this week so far. Got the EGR port blocked off :pimp:



Gonna try to get my headers ready this weekend to send out to get ceramic coated next week :woot:

So dumb it down for me a bunch,how much we talkin :haha:

Kyle says +1hp would be conservative and that I could augment that number with stickers for aditional gains :woot:

I'd agree. For argument sake lets just say 1-2" holes are worth 1.5hp per hole. :popcorn:
 
Oh and hurry up. I want this fat Pig out from my covering. I bought this nice new dodge and it's sitting on the street while both our beat, leaking and tired wheelers take the driveway and covered side spots. We're dumb like that. :D
 
The little -6an dodads ya need to connect the tranny to the cooler in the radiator :D

I did a ton of reading to figure out what adapter fittings I needed so I thought I would share :waytogo:

 
Got going on the fuel system. Pinched the return at the fuel rail flat and welded it closed. And I got the supply line run from the motor back to the fuel filter :woot:


Pulled the headers out to weld the V band clamp halves on and they are off to be Cermakromed next week :pimp:



The only issue that came across with these headers is that the drivers side O2 sensor bung is pointing right at the upper shackle bolt. So Im just going to cap the one in the collector weld an O2 bung into the pipe right after the collector .
 
I wish I would have done v-band clamps on all my exhaust. I eventually got it all buttoned up with stage 8 locking hardware and nice gaskets but it was a PITA.
 
The headers are Schoenfeld #1302ls1. The Vband clamps are Summit #694300. All the exhaust systems I have seen Jason at Pac Fab build use Vbands so I figured I would give them a shot :D

Dropped the headers off to be coated after work today and I will have them back next Monday :pimp:
 
When you lower the o2 below the collector, go ahead and do the 3 wire o2 mod. You will probably need it, and it's pretty cheap and easy
 
I say quit messing around and just stuff like 10 wires in there. :waytogo:


My old school TBI setup has a 3 wire below the collector and I get random lean codes from time to time. Light kicks on but goes away when I floor it... so I just floor it everywhere I go. :popcorn:
