Q's on drag car setup
Hey guys, I have this in the first gen section too, but I need some help with my drag RX7 that I was selling, but decided to finish the project. I have a totally gutted 80 that I ripped out the dash completely, and I am fabricating a sheetmetal one, I am also making a lightened steering column support.
Okay, what I need is help with the engine setup. I have a TII engine ready for some mods. I want to stay away from standalones and such because it is ONLY a strip car. I don' t know what kind of turbo to run, people are talking To4e's and such and T66's, but basically the way I am looking to set it up is:
1) I want to run race gas
2) I would like to run a blow through carb, but lack knowledge on the blow-throughs, like which type is best for my application, and which ones work best for race gas.
3)I want to run a 12at distributor and upgrade the ignition part big time.
4) A large turbo for the track, don't know which one would be best for this application.
I don't know of anything else, I will probably switch to a 9" after all of this, but right now I am addressing the engine. If there is anything that someone would like to add, do so. Before anyone runs off there mouth and says I don't know what I am doing, then don't answer. To me, the blow through carb setup is a whole new ball game for me, I want to keep this simple for the track. If anyone has examples or pictures that would be great too. Thanks for anyones help.
