i suggest u check around to some local salvage yards. there's a shop local to me that rebuilds starters and alternators so maybe there's one near u. check the phone book. have u checked with a parts place to see what a new or reman starter will be?

 

are there seperate starters for turbo II's and N/A's?

 

yeah. TII starters are different than the NA ones.

You can pick up a fresh reman at Advance for $89.99.

 

any of you guys interested on an SE with a freshly built bridgeport engine, my buddy josh is selling it, i believe he said he was gonna get rid of the F.I. and put a carb in it, but i can't remember...he's also got a webber 48ida with manifold he wants to get rid of, it's a regular down draft tho, not a sidedraft, i can't remember all the specs on the car, he said the interior was very well taken care of and stuff, but i guess if you're interested p.m. me and i'll let him know

 

thanks sam thats prob what i'll go get.....any volunteers to help put it in?

 

The day of reckoning is upon us! Heading to the rollers this morning. It's 3:30!! Where the hell is everyone?

 

it's 4:00a.m. now ..... i miss everyone , i think i'm having an emo momment haha ...hooray for insomnia!!! speaking of that, i finally watched fight club for the first time ever the other day...WOW, hell of a movie lol....but uh..oh yeah ..woot rotaries!!! (trying to stick to theme of forum)

 

I tossed and turned until about 6am

 

BlackDeath how much would he want for the Weber and manifold?

 

The results of my trip to the rollers....290RWHP 274RWTQ RETARDEDLY rich A/F's from about 5.5-6k on. I'm talking A/F of 9's Stupid rich. It was breaking up in the upper range so much he got out of it at my request.( I told him to be very "conservative" with what he saw. Good guys at AP in Black Mountain.I weighed my car at the CAT scales on I 40 on the way home...2660#'s with 1/2 tank of gas and a chainsaw in the boot.. 1860 over the front, 800 over the rear. I need coilovers and corner weightined badly..

Now the bad news......Got out Hp'd by a TA..315RWHP...slower in the quarter he was. By OVER 1 second at the 1k foot mark. Whatever that means to you drag racers I like turning

 

he told me but i have a horrible memory lol, if you want to pm me your phone number or somewhere to reach you, and i'll give it to him, if not i still gotta go over to his house sometime soon and i'll ask him then if you rather wait a couple of days to know

 

damn ... i've only slept about 3-5 hrs total the past 3 days (2 nights) i gotta find a job so i can get back into a more "normal" sleeping routine

 

ok guys it finally happened that solenoid is out, im gonna buy one....CAN ANYONE COME TO MY HOUSE TOMMORROW TO HELP PUT IT IN PLEASE?

 

Give me a shout tomorrow, I could swing by.

 

Thanks so much stu, i ordered it so i have to pick it up at 9 tommorrow morn. i mean ill give u gas money or something i just dont wanna screw my starter up. heres my address 6250 hackberry creek tr. charlotte nc 28269

 

Well guys. I am sitting in Daytona tonight. The temp is nice right now, but windy as hell. I have seen about every motorcycle made in the last few hours. Tired as hell, so me go sleepy now........

Dave. I'm shocked. I thought you would be over 300rwhp easy. I need to see where the FB stands. But I need a clutch right now. So, I suppose it's time to swap in a nice clutch and a S4 tranny

 

So dod I!! But I also have taken enough bikes to the dyno and killed peoples ego's. The dyno never lies and it exploits ANY weakness you may have.. In this case The rich A/F's.It was very hard to keep myself from upping the boost,...but I resisted until a good tune is had.

I actually would have been happy with where it is, the car weighs next to nothing which really helps. Nost important thing I got out of the trip was a good baseline graph that shows where everything stands. Time to head back to Rotorsports and talk fuel maps!

 

Ok stu im leaving at 1030 to go pick the solenoid up, so i'll give u a call around 11 so i can give u directions.

 

I think that was you callin me, not sure. I was terribly wasted last night. Some times I need to remember that beer and liquor don't mix. Haaaaangooooover. I will be headin out to your place within the hour.

 

Dave your car feels waaay faster than that dyno says!

 

Car loves the cold air... 1st gear, 2nd gear, 3rd gear, now its acting funny

 

Yeah Stu, It feels faster than that, but then, That is exactly why everyone likes to "bench race" and hardly anyone likes to get thr "true #'s" It always deflates someones ego...If they think they are badass in the first place. Which, I don't think I "talked" the car up much. I expected mid 300's and would have easily achieved it with a more liveable A/F.. Next time When he was calibrating everything he was just playing with the throttle and and was hitting 240 without a hard breath. It's the upper range that is pig rich..

 

well im just rollin in. dave glad you made it out, everyone loved seein your car and samantha is hounding me to boost now. had a blast at the dyno and was especially happy with the 7 after we fixed the actuator. The guys at appalachian performance did a standup job getting us all in there and running. I let John the owner run my car in the 1/4 mile after you left dave and even with him missing a gear still beat my first time for the day. i ended up running a 15 flat after fixing everything. hp numbers were 110 b4 i fixed the actuator and 130 afterwards.
damn what a difference that little adjustment made.
Dave call me soon. If you can make it I have crew passes to VIR this weekend.

 

I'll PM you since all phones here are dead. All cordless or cell I need to talk to John about the Wideband he has there for sale. Can't remember how much he wanted. I think it was 280ish. I need that so I can have more fun playing around with my computer
