Sucks about the tranny. What happened?

Not sure yet, I went to Taco Bell, pulled away from the window and it sounded like my gearset was dragging on the ground. The end cover is cracked wide open and she bled to death. :( It's right where 5th gear is and that was the gear that was popping out and giving me trouble so it kinda makes sense. Oh well! :lol:

of course pump numbers were 210/192ish

Wow, that's a huge difference. I can't wait to see what I'll end up with!

Id say your injectors are good for around 320hp with e85. A rough estimate in my head says you will be around 80% duty cycle with 950's at 290hp. Max they could pump is around 350-360 at 100% duty cycle. This is at base fuel presure of 37.5. Id say you have plenty of room with your injectors.

320 is right around what I figured I'd be able to make with the current fuel setup. I'm hoping I can get on the dyno by June or July. Since it sounds my fuel system will be pretty much at it's peak, this winter I'll look in to upgrading my injectors and pump so come spring time I can get back on the rollers and really stretch the e316g's legs out.

Wait you have 950s?
Then WTF are u worrying about thats what I have and I am not even close, you have nothing to worry about.
Black is right, i say let er buck you will have more fun trying to get more boost than worrying about fuel with a 16G and 950s.

Your estimate on duty cycle is a little high. When I had the car tuned at DB with the 3076R I was making 305whp, and IDCs were only 65-70% on 92. Those injectors should be good to 350-375 on E-85.

Either way, I'm in for a lot of :drive1:

And that's weird about the tranny popping out of 5th, then blowing it out of the cover. I can't say I've heard of that happening before and it never popped out of 5th for me.

It was weird, it didn't do it when I test drove it, just bad timing! In no way do I blame you Kevin. You sold me a damn solid car. Things happen! At least it happened when I have some extra dough laying around! She'll be back up in a few weeks I think. Stronger than ever! :sport017:

[Kevin 1G Drummer]

Yeah, Shitty timing on it happening for you, but I'm glad you're getting it sorted out.

if you want to fix the tranny I still have alot of parts from the parts tranny on the shelf. also have the case

[sleepydsm]

The nut that holds 5th gear on can work its way loose, and then worse case scenario fall off or something. I guess a symptom is popping out of fifth.

What route are you going with the tranny?

[blackrosenova400]

Hes picking up another this weekend and Im going to inspect it and swap thru shafts for the t-case if needed.
