Re: Finally getting stuff done on our cars
By unload, do you mean the clutch slipping? What was the boost at?
Why does it need break-in? I wouldn't think he would have an organic disc in there.

Its a 6 puck FE disk, it might wear in a little.
Boost was at 36, but spikes higher in the beginning.

Re: Finally getting stuff done on our cars
The track will be a good place to finish tune the car, and if the clutch still does not work I will find a 3200lb PP and if that does not work then I save up for a Tiltan triple disk or something. Yes we ment the clutch is slipping, the tires are not spinning on the dyno atleast. It nice to shift and be right back on peek torque though, this should be a fun car on slicks at the track. I thought about going to the track sunday, but I do not need to see what my track time would be while doing a few 360s.

Re: Finally getting stuff done on our cars
I want to see if its a problem on the track first, SBC also sujested the disk will have to wear itself into the flywheel and PP, this might take a little time, we will see.

Re: Finally getting stuff done on our cars
Do they have some puck disc that requires no breakin at all that you can just throw in? I find it strange that is slipping with the torque that your car is making, my wifes old 2600 holds over 400ft-lbs at the wheels on the dyno without slipping.

Re: Finally getting stuff done on our cars
My 2600 has held 490wtq(on my Dynojet) and at the track. It did smell a bit after each run at Cedar falls, but no obvious slipping down the track. The same clutch is still in the car two years later.

Re: Finally getting stuff done on our cars
Ya, why not just turn the boost down as low as it will go and go make some shakedown runs? Shakedown runs, not 9 sec passes, shakedown runs!

Re: Finally getting stuff done on our cars
It makes 520awhp at 26psi, as low as it will go with out taking the WGs off, Also I do not have the time or money to get the car ready and down there, you all have seen how track ready the car is.

Re: Finally getting stuff done on our cars
So I got a ride the other day. Oh my god I almost shit myself. The road in front of the shop has never seemed shorter.
John..."its not that bad, just brace your feet against the firewall.."
Thanks for showing me how a GT42 is supposed to be used.
