little help with FWD

tgriffith · 04-23-2009, 08:15 PM

on my car, I have the back nearly solid so there isnt that notorous weght trans fer off the wheels also,,,,the power steering and other garbage is also gone,,,,I put an electric water pump on mine,,,,,took a moroso belt pump, cut the gear in half, mounted it backwards and it worked percect,,,I think the motor is mounted where the power steering pyump used to be,,,,it fit like it was made for it...its always an eye catcher if Im at a local test where there are other small cars (LOL)---it funny,,I have more lookers at that water pump than my other race car gets

"""I'm surprised that 24x9" slicks fit in your wheel wells, because they don't in mine...""""

they stick out about 1/2 an inch,,,,I was told that they were a littel tolerent with FWDs and Ihra dont have a problem,,,its close enough to strike up a good arguement (LOL)

on leaving at an idle,,,,the big issue I have with that is,,,,,Im really on new ground with counting the lites,,,,rite now, If I torque up to 2k and count 1--2--go on 3,,,,,lites are .03-.04,,,,,its nothing to write home about BUT considering Ive been a "see and go bottom bulb" racers for 25 years,,,,this is really something different and Im pleased.....its super easy to practice on the practice tree,,,,,Ive been told by other lite counters that is the place you want to be-----if I torque to 1500,,,its ..06 or worse-----I couldnt imagine what it would be at an ilde---In the beginning. I was hoping to block and leave on the second bulb,,,that netted a
--.350 and -.352 RED (.000 RT) ,,,just to far out to work with

the exhaust is dual individual that runs under the car and end about where the convertor used to be

are the comp shocks your using struts???
