If you keep breaking axles, what are you running for an engine? I'm not too worried, as I'm only shooting for 525 HP.

I haven't really done a hole lot of drag strip racing myself, mostly just on the street. But I've had a lot of trouble using manual transmissions for some reason. I prefer the automatics.

Have you tested how much of a difference the cutout makes open vs closed? I'm curious how much it might lower the boost threshold as well as affecting the horsepower curve. Very cool build.

Did you ever get the rear diff prob worked out? Personally I think I'd go with the Ford 9" inch if it was mine. I mean there's just so many parts available for it, and it's a little bit bigger.

Did you ever get the rear diff prob worked out? Personally I think I'd go with the Ford 9" inch if it was mine. I mean there's just so many parts available for it, and it's a little bit bigger. And I believe that to put in a live rear axle you've got to build a transmission cross member that ties into the frame rails. Or I seen a guy on KZbin once who made a large plate that sandwiched between the engine block and the transmission but stuck way out on the sides and then bolted the sides of it to the frame rails, and from what I understood the transmission just "floated" out at it's rear tail housing. But it would seem like to me all 3 of those together would a be "super strong" solution. I've been researching it because I'm planning on buying and building myself a turbo C4 project in the near future.

Hands down a really cool car, obviously stinkin' fast and I know I would enjoy watching it run in person, BUT it's NOT a C4 anymore; nor is it a C5, C6 or C7, it's a FrankenVette. Am of the mindset that one drives a classic car for the experience as it was back in the day (very different from many current "soulless automobiles"). If I wanted to drive an LS 'Vette I would've got a C5 instead of an '89 C4 with its comparatively mild L98 engine. It's the overall experience that matters to me along with not negatively impacting the value of the car over time. Regardless though, looks like a lotta fun and remember, no matter what temporal pleasures this fallen world has to offer, including 'Vettes, King Jesus Christ is BETTER because it's Hell without Him!

Closed loop trying to make too big of changes? Maybe the minimum injector open time is too high so it tries to go down below that threshold and it pulls all the fuel, goes lean and tries to ad fuel back in but adds too much? I’m not a tuning expert, I just know enough to be dangerous. How much exhaust pipe after the o2 sensor?
