clark17357 Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Without photos, you are just teasing us. If you have trouble posting photos, grab a 13 year old and they will walk you through it (worked for me). Who did the work on your car? As to the traction issues, you may want to do some additional work on your suspension with a Watts Link of at least an adjustible panhard bar, and control arms, upper and lower. Regardless what else you do to it, you are going to have trouble getting that much power to the ground. But, if you are going to have trouble, that is pretty nice trouble to have. Congratulations of what you have done so far. Looking forward to the photos. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pucky Posted October 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 THX ALL, WORK WAS DONE BY SEAN HYLAND MOTORSPORTS IN TORONTO ONT CANADA AND I WILL GET SOME PICTURES THIS EVENING AND I HAVE THE PAN HARD BAR ORDERED ALREADY CAN NOT STAND WHEEL STICKING OUT EVEN 3/8 IN THANKS PAUL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 THX ALL, WORK WAS DONE BY SEAN HYLAND MOTORSPORTS Congrats. I run the 3.25" pulley and it's too cold with stock 18" street tires. You do not need a seperate tune for the 3.25" and 3" pulley. Make sure you know why they are giving you seperate tunes if they are... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shipwright Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 pucky I couldn't help but noticed that your from Nova Scotia, you wouldn't happen to be living in the HRM would you? If you are keep an eye out for an 08 Grabber Orange Convertible (mine). By the way what colour is your Shelby? As for centering your rear end, as was mentioned before, a WATTS Link will definately keep rear inline with your front and it also improves the handling of your car.

pucky Posted October 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 hey wilson what size pulley are you running and did you change gears thx paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 hey wilson what size pulley are you running and did you change gearsthx paul that's 3.25" It's too much for the stock tires as it is.. Will turn up boost for track. I think that changing gears (stock is 3.55) is pretty much a waste since the power that is made with the kb is very brutal down low rpms. it would only make tire spin worse. money would be better spent on DR's or adj shocks to get the car to plant the tires better. but on a car that is raced more than street driven, a 3.73 might help some with a 28" slick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also is this the tune from Whipple? I hear that Jon Lund of Jon Lund Racing is the MASTER tuner when it comes to these cars. With all that you have sunk into your ride you might want to contact him for a custom tune. That is my plan of action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pucky Posted October 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 they filled the car with 94 before they shipped it back . then i will only have 91 here in nova scotia i will have to run an octane boost after that probably nos race formula or maybe i will put the 3.25 pulley on , the program is a kenne bell as far as i know . tuner is sct??. i will check with the installer .
