hoov100 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 So Speedway is my bible, They have a Willwood tri reverse mount pedal kit with a 6:2-1 ratio and I like the idea of keeping the resivoures in the car and cleanish. I have read alot about the tilton setups and big brake kits but no info for otherwise stock brake system. I have started my project and am putting in a rollcage next weekend 1 1/2 .120 wall dom tubing would have went .095 but rules say I need to have 1 pound weight per cc of power. go on ebay and try and find a used pedal setup with the speedway master brake line kit and the metric to AN adapters. You won't need anything other then stock brakes for an 1/8 mile oval, you can do a rear disc conversion for simplicity, but you won't really need anything else.

ModernS30 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 I think your gonna need some flares... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suparman Posted May 10, 2010 Author Share Posted May 10, 2010 Rule book says no more than 8 tire contact patch. I am trying to find some 2 " spacers for the right side and 1 inch for the left might have to have the local machine shop make some. When I remember I will upload the ruels.

ModernS30 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 That is a 14" you will still need flares with an 8. I had an 8 inch front up there before to. It sticks out quite a bit. The contact patch is 8 but the sidewall and everything makes it a bit wider. That means crazy powered expensive cars can't hook up, gives the rest of the guys a chance. I like rules like that.

suparman Posted May 10, 2010 Author Share Posted May 10, 2010 Alot less restrictive than the street stock class I race the nova in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoov100 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Alot less restrictive than the street stock class I race the nova in. I wish, I had those rules for the street stock my brother runs. So you're looking at a built L30, 13:1 C/R built head, forged rods and pistons, lightened crank, built head with a massive cam, VDL built two barrel holley, "stock" aluminum 10 pound flywheel with an unsprung 6 puck clutch and a z32 trans with a welded 4.32 rear gear?

Only stock clutch, I don't think a 6 puck unsprung is very stock. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suparman Posted May 10, 2010 Author Share Posted May 10, 2010 In 2 weeks I hope to have the body stich welded and a cage in. Then I will need to figure out spring and struts wheel offsets and the rear end and gearing. Do we know what a 260 weighs gutted my roll cage will weigh about 250 lbs seat 20ish 8 gallon fuel cell 10ish empty 50 or so misc. I am going to put in sub frame connectors and a x brace. I was also going to plate mount the engine to help tie everything together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoov100 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Only stock clutch, I don't think a 6 puck unsprung is very stock. LOL exactly.. "stock" the way tech works for stuff like these, is that they will do a general safety tech, weigh it and usually give the car a basic visual inspection, if he's in the top three the officials will decide what point of the car they want to inspect, which is usually the carbs, tires, weight or rear end. Personally, if you can get away with it, is to run a modified vg30e with a carb. the only problem, is that you need the factory ECU to control the spark.

suparman Posted May 10, 2010 Author Share Posted May 10, 2010 (edited) The way our track works is if people think you are to fast they have to pay 500 for a tear down and pay for the rebuild if found to be legal. If you are illegal you are banned till back in compliance. Rules say bottom end has to be stock but you can have a full built head. But they also say after market pistons and rods are allowed so I think creative interpretation is going to be put in to place there. Hopefully I can find a bottom end that is fresh with forged pistons and light weight rods. I am not a very good mechanic and Denver is 3 hours away so Ill have to order in most parts. Although I think a well put together and balanced bottom end may be more important. John C. from Betamotorsports had said to find a good 100k engine and run with it but the only ones I have seen are clapped out.
