Blake I don't plan on running it really tight because the tighter it is the louder it gets and as you stated it does wear on bearings... but to be honest I just like the way they look/sound.

Keith the alt pulley is slightly smaller than the one I have on it now so I doubt I will have any charging issues.

In the past back when people actually took the effort to meet up we would set it up on here. I have tried getting people to meet up several times in the past year... Not much luck. Lol
Maybe you can bring it up and get some reaction...

I'm in the process of rebuilding the tranny. I haven't had much time to work on it since I live in Indy now. I plan on having it on the street mid-end May.

What was holding you back?
AN fitting for water or something?

You running 93 and meth still or going E85?
18psi?


Edit:
Just noticed your sig, you're auto now?

Late May must be a popular time frame for people to bring out their FD's

Tony,

Yeah, water pump fitting was all I needed. It's on the streets now. I'm still tying up a few loose ends this week though.

It's E85 now, probably aiming for 14-15 psi, that should be sufficient for ~700 RWHP or a little better once the tune is sorted.

And yes, it's a 4 speed auto now.

Sweet. You planning to take it to the track this year.? Hell with that much power you should be running 9's. Since that is what rotary's run with mid 600hp.
Im ready to get mine to the track again.

I have plenty of power for 9s. Not sure if I have the suspension/tire for it. It'll probably be a low 10 at high mph car.

Anybody have a spare carpet/liner thing for an FC rear bin? The little "bag" that hangs off the top half? Don't care about color as long as it's not moldy. Apparently I threw mine away at some point. I have a top half of the bin/lid, just not the carpet lower.
