See, for example I'm a fan of these two posts.
Both are good stuff; keep up the good work. Welcome back (truly).

Woooooo hooooooo BlackJesus is back!!!
I can't wait to hear more about his reckless and illegal street racing and how his POS Pontiac G8 is faster than a 2015 Corvette Z06. 9/24/2014 12:03:53 AM |

My next mod will be a ls3 416 short block, ported top end, stall, and a bigger cam. 2015!!!!
I'm still kicking myself for not getting a monster cam and a stall when I did my cam swap.
^ Prochargered G8's put down some sick numbers with minimal mods, but at the boost level they are running my bottom end would be on borrowed time. 9/24/2014 7:37:09 AM |

why go through the trouble and cost of another motor? why not just sell and buy something closer to what you want from the factory? 9/24/2014 1:07:11 PM |
BlackJesus Suspended 13089 Posts user info edit post |
GM refuses to import a proper HSV GTS, instead they gave us a muscled up malibu for 45k (6+ year old engine etc). I'd be open to selling if GM had given the SS the LT1 or LSA for 2015. Other than a CTS-V wagon I have no interest in any cars out right now.
Its not an entire motor just a short block(3-5k depending on parts, could even do a iron block if I want to save a little cash). The accessories, heads/intake(need a good port job for flow) etc will swap over from my current motor.
Built > Bought imo 9/24/2014 2:57:17 PM |

iron block is a good idea 9/24/2014 4:15:06 PM |

I've decided to go ahead and put boost on it. Eaton 1.9, meth injection, and fuel upgrades.

^do you hand calculate ? 11/20/2014 6:24:37 PM |
BlackJesus Suspended 13089 Posts user info edit post |
Yes and I can assure you GM dropped the ball on the mileage calculator in that car.
Although with all my mods I'm getting 23-24 on highway (pretty much what it got stock). Your truck probably does better than me in the city. 11/20/2014 6:41:06 PM |

black is ~18 average, red is ~15 average. I've squeaked nearly 25 from black on an all interstate ride before

I might die if I ever see a mustang cop car.
Got some Mickey Thompson ET Streets 26 x 11.50-17 on the way. Still need to find one more used 17" GTO wheel. Any of y'all know anyone with a junk 04-05 GTO?
The G8 is getting replaced in a 1-2 years. I'm in love with this.... I'll just live in it, don't need no stinking house

BlackJesus Suspended 13089 Posts user info edit post |
I think this Z06 with the automatic may be the perfect drag weapon. It's going to run high 10's/ low 11's from the factory. I want to test drive a base C7 but I know I'll fall in love with it.
I did a quick google search, can't find any information on what they are doing for cooling on the auto version. No way a car with a converter is going to be a track car without some serious trans cooling.

Helping a friend put his monster G8 back together. Forged 6,0 bottom end, lsa supercharger, meth injection, 16lbs of boost. Car ran 10.30s with previous setup, should be faster this time.

Lea blower can make 18 lbs in a built motor? 12/2/2014 12:54:48 PM |

Motor is stock displacement with forged internals. Yes with the correct pulley's those things can push some air.

Yeah with a huge aftermarket intercooler that makes sense...
she's only a little 2.3 so @ 18lbs on a 6.2 she's waaaaaay out of her efficiency range.

Quick update. Friend called me at 2pm, "I could use a hand, should be starting the car in a hour." I got there around 3pm, car starts at 2am.
Now time to wash the car and get on the road to the track.

Wasted day at the track. Stall would not flash high, trans was flaring on shifts, half tank of junk gas. But of course as soon as I put my regular wheels on and get on the street, everything is perfect.

So I was at the track and there was a Mustang club. They refused to line up with me or any of the guys I was with. While letting my car cool off I took this video.
Mustang ran a 14.0X to beat the trucks 14.4X. They also wouldn't line up with the Ford diesel that was running low 13's.
It's crazy, on the street I can't get away from stang slaying, but at the track they only line up with Honda's and huge trucks

sounds like a snoozefest for the stangs.
...shit you not, there's a grey ECLB dodge that runs at Mooresville, similary proportioned to the one in the video above, clicking off mid 7's in the 1/8th. (I think it may be someone from Midgets Diesel)

Honestly I've never seen a new Stang run good at the track, even the 5.0's were running mid 13's.
Here's a video of me and friend having fun. His car was consitently 2-3 tenths faster all day. But my reaction time
At Fayetteville .500 is perfect.
