yet some how loads of fun |
Tsk Tsk!!
And whats ya excuse :D :D
You all take care |
That doesnt sound like responsible driving 347, you should have tried harder and taken up 4 lanes!
Andy. |
That's right - one lane per Weber.....
How did you manage to get it so far out of shape without the cops coming down on you like a ton of bricks? We'd have our car impounded for 48 hours if we did that up here... Craig |
firstly let me say the hume highway is only 3 lanes wide(i pay for rego each year so i thought i would use what is mine :p )
as for the cops,they are normally every where at an event such as that,but i took a punt (due to the amount of people watching the cars leaving)and it almost put me facing the gutter, oh **** is what i said when i saw the grass on the footpath comming :eek: but some how got it into line and stopped at the next set of lights to do it all again !! what gets into me when i drive that car???? **) :JEKYLHYDE |
Craig, your car should be impounded for 48 hours! Its a threat to national security!
Andy. |
Norty Norty!!
I've got a nice comfy couch here 347......Now, just you lay down and tell me when you first noticed this strange behaviour. :MECOOL:
Anyways..how come you didnt tell us you got the car on the road?..last I saw was ya pics and it didnt look all that roadworthy. rolleyes: What scoop did ya eventually put on the bonnet. Andddddd....hows that 347 engine you happy with it? You all take care |
Andy, you'll be happy to know that it has been voluntarily parked for 7 days. I unbolted my sidepipes and took them back to the guy that made them for me. Scott's temporary "stuff the pipes full of steel and fiberglass" modification lasted longer than the 1 or 2 hours we were expecting, but the Cobras were allowed onto the track at Qld Raceway last weekend for 3 parade laps.
I gave the car a little bit of throttle, and I'll be damned if the whole great chunk of fiberglass didn't do it's best impression of a spud-gun and launch itself against the pit wall in a smoldering / disintegrating mess - much to the amusement of the track officials that had to clean it up.....%/ :rolleyes: Back to square one, and back to 103dB at idle. The revised pipes will have a stainless spiral running the full length of the sidepipes, the packing around the perf tube will now be stainless, and we might even throw a couple of these in there to see what happens. http://www.secureperformanceorder.co...ProductID=4733 |
now where is that couch...................
rebel , i am sticking with the hornet scoop until such times i can afford a better one and a mate of mine said he will build me an air box for my carbs only if i stick with the hornet scoop.......so i must stick with it for a little while ;) yes i am happy with engine, just needs a little fine tuning which it is getting next week(bloody webers) sometimes i think the tremec is a bit of a pain 1st gear is a bit low but with 4.1 diff the 5th gear is heaven on the subject of 5th gear, 110 klms, 2500rpm before i had the heads and manifold ported it was better to drive on freeway its not as responsive as it was before the porting, i guess it because the holes are slightly larger.....anyway i guess my hour is up i will come back next week........same time?:JEKYLHYDE |
Thats what big heads and cams do to ya 347....in a nutshell....all that just moves the power (read response) up the power band.
You all take care |
