  1. I can't seem to break into the low 12's. I wondering if the 2.8" pulley is generating to much heat at the end of my runs. My IAT's jump to 150 at my 2-3 shift point.

     

    Is this just the nature of the beast running the radix?

     

    I was wondering how much a meth kit would help control this rise in IAT.

     

    I am also planning on the 90mm TB modification.

     

    Looking for suggestions that will help control temps and get me solidly and consistantly into the low 12's.

  2. I went there & ran a 12.67. There were several Hemi Dodges there and 2 SRT10's. None bothered to get in linr with me. I aproached one of the SRT10's to see if he wanted to run. He said it was his first time at a track and he was just there to have fun. The Dodge hemi Ram that I saw run was in the 14's...

     

    I raced a dodge viper. I had him off the line and all the way to 1/2 track then he drove right around me. It was fun to line up agnist him.

     

    Lapeer dragway is probably the worst track I have been too. I was easily spinning all off the line. Not much track prep............ohwell it's close & a place to run....

     

    Which Dodge were you driving Dline?

  3. I have a few items to sell...

     

    1. ASM Long tube headers. I bought them used from a wrecked truck. They had a couple of small dings but don't leak. I had them on my truck for 15k miles. There is one spot on the drivers tube where I heated it to take out a ding and ruined the coating. The passenger side header has had the egr tube cut off and welded up (crappy looking but dosen't leak). These headers sell for like $800 new and are high quality. You can reuse the stock manifold bolts and gaskets. I will also include the original headpipes off of my Silverado SS...they have the cats removed and you coluld bolt the whole thing on. I have pics of them, but my cable to download them is MIA I have to buy a new one tomorrow. $400 includes shipping on headers and headpipes.

     

    2. Magnacharger Radix air intake tube. It is cracked right near where it bolts on but could be welded up...you could use it for a 90mm conversion part if you modify it. Looking for $50 shipped.

     

    3. Brand new stock Cobra heat exchanger approx 10X24 inches. I was gonna use it but went another way. Looking for $100 shipped and it is new in the box still.

     

    4. Flowmaster muffler to replace stock SS muffler. It was on my truck for 20k miles sounds deep. I paid $130 I think and I will take $50 + Shipping

     

    I WILL ACCEPT PAYPAL ON ALL ITEMS

     

    Thanks for looking!!

     

    Dave

     

    Have any additional information or pictures of the heat exchanger?

  4. Yeah, I have been looking into them, and they work good. Lou from LG motorsports played with one on the dyno for a few days and said they are as good as speed density. There is another company called ADM i believe that has the same thing for a little cheeper than "Ripofffelter" has them for.

     

     

    Got a link to the ADM website?

     

    Nevermind I found it.

  5. I had the Kumho's taken off today and had Eagle LS2's installed. Everything is back to normal again...whew........

     

    The Kumho's gave off a road noice that sounded to me exactly like a rearend gear going bad or a dry wheel bearing.....it was driving me crazy. That last thing I need to worry about is a new noise with all the mods I have done.

     

    For the track I wil get a set of 17's or 18's in the spring.
