-> Well guys, I went for another dyno run this weekend. I took
-with me a new
-> smaller pulley for the paxton (gave me 11.89# boost), some
-larger jets for
-> the NOS kit, a new aluminum radiator, a 160 thermo, twin 12" fans and the
-> boxed frame. Well, while the Dakado was on the dyno (after the pulley
-swap
-> and changing the jets out) we went for a run. Something didn't feel just
-> right with the idle, but I decided to try it anyway. At about 4800
-> screaming
-> rpm, and it was doing DAYUM good up till then, the blower decided to drop
-> the
-> impeller and shred itself. Down the intake went all the pieces.
- Needless
-> to
-> say, the 408 had met its match. It could take the air/fuel, but
-didn't do
-> too well with the metal shreds. Back to the drawing board. :o(
->
-> Will
