[quote="bgilbertI just like helping 1st gen owners out, why spend the money twice.
Second, what you have there is a big rpm, big fuel, coming out of the hole at, at least 4k rpm and then maintaining at least that rpm down the track my friend. Even if you had my pump and injectors, a fully built 47rh, or a dual disc clutch and 5 speed, you're still gonna have a hard time staying on top of that charger pulling a sled BRO. I know this from experience. Not personal, I have two pulling friends locally that have the same charger, one off the shelf, well a junkyard take off, and the other a high dollar bolt up, machined one from Scheid. Both are high rpm p-pump trucks.
So what do you have for a set up, if you don't mind sharing? 518, getrag, nv4500?[/quote]
Bill,
I'm going to put an end to this here, you have ruined plenty of informative threads for other first genners over the years and this one as well. Your negative comments are not what this community of owners wants or needs. This was simply a fun thread "hey check this out a 12mm h&r will actually light this charger". It wasn't a middle finger in the air to anyone. You seem to have a problem with insulting people on forums, by the way I'm not your bro... SON. If you have a problem with a post, address it with some class.
First off, the Gt42 lights up at 2400 RPM you don't need 4K to stay on top of it. Its pushing 30psi in the video. Look at the stack velocity. Maybe an S475 is what your thinking of in the 4-5k range as thats what guys run here. Your pulling buddies setups are apples and oranges to what I have so I don't see any valid point there. Probably second gens anyway, way different setup. So here's the setup.
*2- 11x5" K&N filters in a modded stock pot cold air box with restriction gauge
*air shut off
*Gt4202 with a port matched 1.01A/R non gated T4 foot turbine (not a 1.15 gated T6 detroit unit)
*4" v band to 5"hood stack
*ATS bigfoot manifold with port work
*ATS arc flow intake (hey I felt spendy that day in Denver)
*60 psi springs all around
*14mm H&R VE with some EDM, bridgeport, and dremel work. 4k HD return springs, double shaft seal, custom fast advance mechanism (at the end of this week it'll be on)
*6x18 edms, 078 lines
*custom made fuel system with dual fuel pumps Walbro 392, and 300 GPH for competition only, bypass regulated, separate draws for both pumps, pressure gauges to measure drops through dual caterpillar filters, AN-8 lines
*SBC 3850 dual disk, unsprung hub, 24 buttons per disk
*NV4500, 1 3/8 input, improved 5th mainshaft
*PS intercooler
*3" aluminum intercooler tubes I made by hand with retention beads
*500F rated 4 ply silicone boots with stainless rings and dual constant torque clamps at each joint.
*3.54 axle ratios (deeper ratio in the spring to correct crawl ratio), full spool rear
*Pro comp x terrain 33 12.5 17 E on 17x9 wheels
I realize I need fire rings but I'm testing out things right now. I'm working on a new motor, ringed, studded etc, different pistons with work, ported head, improved cooling on #6, main girdle maybe a 14mm VE if it works out, if not I have a p7100 going together as an alternative.
Oh, and 1000 psi water injection
What were we talking about?
