Zach Posted August 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 Went on a successful cruise this afternoon no issues what so ever. Fixed the dragging starter and still need to run down an exhaust leak. Played around with the car about half throttle max, and man I no it doesn't make the power some cars on here make but wow. This thing pulls as hard at half throttle as the old one did flat out. Hopeful to have a dyno date for the middle of next week to get some numbers.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackmage Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 i felt the same way when i swapped in the 4v, its not fast, but wow was it a night and day difference over the 2v motor. Glad to hear shes running good for ya! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach Posted August 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 Scheduled my dyno apt for the 20th, now time to speculate what it will make. What do y'all think, 10:1 331, tfs Cnc 170 heads, Ed Curtis cam(don't have cam card for specs), tmoss lower gt40,94 upper cobra with port matching, 70mm tb, pro-m 80 matched to 38lb injectors, 1"5/8 long tubes, dr gas x, and dumped magnaflows. It made 430/414 at the flywheel with a wieand dual plane, 650 holley and 1"5/8 long tubes at 30 degrees total timing.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach Posted August 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 . Took some photos today, I'm looking into getting a decent camera. What would be a good budget minded option?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Det_Riot Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Some of the newer point and shoots are pretty damn good. You can pick up an older dslr fairly cheap off craigslist or amazon or ebay now i'm sure. A lot of it depends on the glass (lens) you use anyways so most dslr's will be a step up from cell phone cameras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach Posted August 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 . Not the best pic but got my breather tank installed today, hopefully I can crank the car Tommorrow and see if it helped any. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach Posted August 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Started the at today and let it run, all is good so far and need to check for leaks Tomorrow. And dyno tune is Wednesday. Since I removed the pcv system that mean the a/f ratio should richin, just checking for peice of mind.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach Posted August 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 . Here's the results he only pulled the car to 5100 rpm because he noticed a vibration in the drive shaft and didn't want to break it. But I'm still super stoked on what it made. This is also a very conservative tune on the a/f and timing. But it made 332/376, if he would of pulled it to 6k it prolly would of peaked in the 350-60 hp range. So I'm super stoked just need to fix my leak and get a new drive shaft.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zach Posted September 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 Well I finally got it back together thanks to @Det_Riot for the tool for the rear main seal, just started it up on the jack stands for about 5 min no oil wile running. Gonna check back in a few hours and see if any has leak crossing my fingers not. Then if there not a rainy day in the new month I'll get it out for a photo shoot finally.

I got the tool back already, I know I'm gonna have to use it soon I just don't want tooooo =[ ok that's good you got it back, and there's no oil dripping on the ground I do see some of my green oil on my bell housing inspection plate but it looks like it's residual from leaking before. Should have cleanined it better, but there is no visable streams back there and none in the ground. Hopefully i will get a nice day sometime soon to see if it stays leak free after a drive.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach Posted November 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 Well nothing real exciting on the car lately..... But the engines had to come out due to the pressure bypass valve failing in the oil pump causing oil pressure to be 10-12 psi hot at idle. no damage internally so that's good gonna upgrade to a hv pump 7 quart pan and windage tray/ crank scraper.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prokiller Posted November 5, 2014 Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 it's good that nothing got damaged. sucks that it happened, but at least it's not catastrophic failure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95riosnake Posted November 5, 2014 Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 The dyno numbers are pretty stout! That's a great power level for N/A. Is the rear main still holding up? I'm still putting off doing mine because I can think of few things I'd rather do less than a rear main seal. I just wish it was guaranteed that changing it would fix the leak, it seems hit or miss from what I've read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I was impressed by the numbers, I figured because I have the Cnc heads and not the fast cast heads, I'll probably pic up some more power when I go to an aftermarket intake as fox tb set up. And it's still leaking oil but we don't know if it's from the rear main or oil pan so we are gonna take care of it while it's out.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zach Posted January 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Well the car is back home and running better than ever no leaks no noises and 40 psi hot idle oil pressure. Long story short one of the lifter retainer bolts were to longs killed one of the cam bearings, and the engine had to be built again. That aside its running amazing still needs some fine tuning in the drivability section, but besides that it's great, and I am finally getting a hd photo shoot in the next week or to getting the car ready for our local world of wheels show.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zach Posted March 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 Got the bitch back on the dyno for tuning again, this time a differnt tuner and a very greedy mustang dyno. I'll get the sheet up when I get home. But it made 313/363 after the last pull. And for reference the same tune it made 330/375 on the dyno jet it made 292/345 so I'm pretty happy with it not to caught up in the big numbers I can already tell it's much faster and drivability is 1000x better.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
