I'll be the first to say it. **** yea. Hell of a job man. That jeep straight makes the bacon. I am LSx biased for sure... but what you did to that jeep is incredible. Looks like its going to get some attention too!

I hope the owner appreciates it.

Now get it to a track with some drag radials and lets see what it can really do.

Thanks guys! Nice to see all the work payed off.. We're gonna put radials in 4 corners and start playing with a lil nitrous on the big end.. The blower is at max Rpm at 6000rpm and were shifting it at 6500rpm. So we won't see any more boost with a pulley change. (Currently 19.5psi in the logs) is also like to fab a set of double adjustable coil overs in the front suspension because if we start pulling the front tires we will be taking out transfer cases! So huge thing that pretty much has to happen... No way around it at this point.. Also gonna be installing a wave track posi in the rear diff and moser axles. I'll keep you guys posted on what he lets me do..

We're working on doing a few more things to it as well.. Been dabbling with e100 and have found it takes another 6* of timing, and 6% of fuel. Gonna be some new vids soon he had a ride along guy at street car take over in Kansas City. Poor big tire chevelle with a chute did not know what he was messing with lol

We've also been fighting a couple issues with accessories taking the load were doing all this with shared 6 rib drive. Originally we were having issues with power steering pumps.. We blew two stock pulleys up, then put a billet billet on from hhp then on the way to the track the guts of the pump came out and pump was ruined, we then started running a pump from Turn One who makes pumps for nascar sbc's the factory molar units couldn't take the rpm, so I retrofitted the pump to work on a gen III hemi no issues since that mod. Took some Chevy parts to fix the mopar no big deal lol. Also we did some modification to the Procharger bracket for more belt wrap on the head unit. But have been having an idler pulley go bad. Next to the alternator keeps eating bearings out of it so we're working with demon performance and having a custom double roller bearing idler made. I'll keep you guys posted on that. So far no issues when racing just when he's driving it back and forth to work. Lol because street car!
