Good to hear!

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

So the N/A car basically had a ProStock engine from Sonny's. Aren't those north of $100K?

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Jump on Sonny's sight, they now have a 1000+ CI motor, and from what I recall the bigger stuff from them cost 100k.

Great to hear in the progress._

The car is 98% ready to go for the MAP event! I just need to replace a drive shaft U-joint that has some play in it. I found a backup 4-bolt rear end too. I'm in the market for more of them! I also have an extra big transfer case. I'm concerned the rear end breakage caused shock load to damage the T-case that's in the car.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Make sure you don't go cheap on them joints. The cheap stuff doesnt last long. What series joint and what shaft?

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

I don't think mark is the cheap parts type. :D

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

Close to the elusive 8, the changes over winter made a big difference for sure.

Re: Mark's 1G Winter Projects
 

The car is ready to go for the MAP PG2. I tweaked the tune, check out the timeframe at the bottom. The pull started at 29mph, and I had the car in full street trim with a passenger too.

Here is the video from my 9.16 pass.

The tires were doing some work! I can see how rear shafts break. Once again the announcer that cannot pronounce Mitsubishi slammed the parachute before the pass, saying it was a "look and style item" but you only need it if you have a car that goes over 150.
