jnjdragracing Posted September 18, 2008 Author Share Posted September 18, 2008 I posted some pictures of the roll bar cage earlier this week, it was under jegs rollbar kit. You can check it out. Also go to www.jnjdragracing.com and you can see pictures of our setup. John I see your focus is on the blower, as well it should be.. But, do you have pics of the rest of the setup as well?

jnjdragracing Posted September 18, 2008 Author Share Posted September 18, 2008 Yep, I remember seeing before. It looks good. Thanks for the compliment as well. John John, I don't want to hijack your thread (here's a link http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=113913 )but I couldn't resist throwing in a pic of a metal model I made a few years ago. Nice car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinOlson Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 How much power is your blower good for anyway? Justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnjdragracing Posted September 18, 2008 Author Share Posted September 18, 2008 Not sure Justin, Last time on race gas we were pushing in the area of 700 - 750 RWHP but gas builds heat and that is what we were fighting. We played with different over drive rations 1-1, 2% over and 8% over. With the Alky we are just staying with 2% over driven. I am running a stock production block so I am limited to what I can put out. Some of my friends are running overdrive ratios of 50% or more. I guess all in all it depends on your engine setup etc. You can add a Nitro mix to the alky for more power. John How much power is your blower good for anyway?

jnjdragracing Posted September 20, 2008 Author Share Posted September 20, 2008 Finished everything this morning. Jerry came by after lunch and we poured 5 gal. of Alky in her. Primed her with race gas and fired it up. She breathed life long enough for me to set the timing. We shut it down and was just amazed at how the torque / power felt and sound. I told Jerry we better start building the other Z. I think we are going to rip this one apart. Below is the link to a video I took after checking everything out from earlier. It is a 30meg video some right click on the link and save as. http://www.jnjdragracing.com/alky/firingitup.mpg After watching it I noticed stuff falling off the shelves, this thing is awsome. It shakes my shop etc..... Can you hear the Power...... John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbk240z Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Dayyuuuuummmm! That thing sounds very wicked indeed! Awesome throttle response too. I guess we will get to see how many hundreds of pieces an R200 can be broken into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
