Trans:

• ls tranny
• 4.7 final drive( i think dunno yet)
• liberty gear cuff
• obx lsd (i want to see if this holds up)

• os giken twin plate unsprung

Turbo set up:

• GT40 (don't know specifics yet)
• custom manifold (equal length and pulse)
• 4" down pipe
• 4" AL exhaust
• huge fmic(thinking about air/water)

Looks like Honda-Tech mod list 101 except on a small bore short deck motor and an LS trans.

[DrifterExtreme]

I hope that wasn't your way of being clever....

[integra_gsr98]

No, not at all.

Starting with a b16 is a good way to shoot yourself in the foot for having a nice torque curve. Maximum displacement on the short deck motor is roughly 1.8L which is going to limit airflow feeding a turbo that large.

I see a lot of parts on the list that don't need to be purchased and can save you money trying to get a fresh build off of the ground and a lot of parts that are not on the list.

What suspension, safety equipment, chassis materials, etc are you planning on using? Tire size plays into gearing which plays into the rev range that you want the car to cross the line at at the end of the 1/4 mile.

What I see is a pretty standard mod list "everybody" follows when they build a setup on H-T these days just with some changes made for parts that you already own I am guessing.

for the price of the B16 shortblock matt couldnt go wrong...i know that much...that's why he's going with it

[DrifterExtreme]

Well you see i hate typing shit and it's not really me to go into super detail is not my style. i just don't care enough to tell everyone i'm going to be running d2 36 way adj. coilovers with what ever spring rates i choose, urethane bushings, some sherical bushings, billit mounts, traction bars, ect.... and i'm getting the block for super cheap..

and with the chassis stuff well thats why this thread existes... so???

Saftey equipment are you just thinking of shit to ask??? who cares if i'm going to be wereing a kevlar reinforced fire proof space suit or a beater i borrowed from my trailer trash freind john... really

next it is gearing you see i don't have a shit ton of money so i use what i can get..

tire size well i don't know yet but i'm concerned most about wheel spin...ie your last 2 yrs of rev limiter and spinning

well if you have some more questions post up i'm all ears...

That would be white trash, thank you. My house doesn't have wheels.

Hahahahaha

Matt what shift knob are you going to be running? This is a huge part of a 10 second build.:drunken_smilie:

[Joel]

none, and half of a pilot motor sports short shifter... ultra lightweight!

[KA-T_240]
