I Want a Dart 427 Motor for My LSA G8 GT but Who’s Going to be My Builder
Figuring out what motor I want to go with and who I want to use to build it has been pretty stressful. I’ve decided on a 427 and I’ve narrowed the builders down to a few! I hope to have something locked in soon because I want my car back out at events!!

CTS-V2 goes to Dyno for more HP with Dr.Tune em all after Upgrades at Ratchet Rust Racing
Переглядів 4436 місяців тому
Ratchet Rust Racing has done lots of upgrades on this car. This time around we exchanged the stock blower for a ported one. Installed a new 6” intake, 103 TB, changed pulley sizes, and upgraded the methanol nozzles. The car picked up nearly 100 hp through the entire graph. We ran into some issues with the meth not spraying but were able to dial that in. And after the last pull the car sounded l...

Casper 👻 my G8 GT gets a New Momentary Shifter from Adam Cooper with AcePerformance. I’ll be using the shifter for Drag Racing. The momentary button is hooked up to a MSD 2-Step Launch Control. This should help keep my 60’ times consistent as long as the car hooks. Next up is installing the new wideband and running all the new wires through the firewall.

    • @carzandcakez4728
      @carzandcakez4728 10 місяців тому

      I bought the entire LSA setup and it came with the frost bite heat exchanger. It worked fine in the beginning but the car saw maybe 500 miles so I think from sitting and not flushing out all the crappy water it just has build up in it. On top of that my pump in the tank stopped working at LS fest so we had to scramble to find a vendor with one and get it back together. I really want an AFCO one but just can’t spring for it after just buying these upgrades.

    Yooo respond to people asking questions about the build if you want to try and get people to (like and comment) and get interaction on youtube. Its not just a heads/cam lsa car there is much more than that. It clearly has a big cam, converter, hella pullies to make 17psi, maybe ported blower? and meth for sure. Is it 93? E85? What about the fuel system? If on E85 its gotta be a decent setup to make 750 through an auto

    Are you trying to lock a single disk with all of that power? Sounds like it's trying to lock up in 3rd gear in your video. If that's the case, I was told by a few that you're not supposed to lock up single disk converters under WOT. Better get a triple disc lockup. What stall speed?
