101MM Stroke 7MGE

Got the rear wheels today:crazy1: WOW.... they have a 3 1/2" (flat area) lip.
You would think they weighed a lot being 20" wheels. They are 29lbs!

Are those BBS? Which ones? Gunmetal?

This whole thread is very awe inspiring. Thanks Defiant!!

Thanks man....:icon_bigg No they are DrifZs 506GM Venoms, yes they are gunmetal. Very nice wheels, I'm pleased.. Mounted a rear tire today, I'll get pics of one on the car soon. The wheel and tire very by a pound, tipped the scale @ 59 lbs.

Early pics of my radiator. The welding will be done this week or so for the water pump mounting plate, AN fittings, and brackets.

Went to my friends shop to test fit the rear wheel on a MKIII. This is a stock height car. Plus I have plenty of clearance between the wheel and the strut. A lowered MKIII (mine) I will need to roll the fenders. No big deal. The sawblad has a factory size tire on it.

A few more.

very nice rims. However...with that guy's ride height they make me giggle

I just spent several hours reading and searching for fuel system ideas. Yesterday @ Erin's shop we talked about fuel and what I planned on using to control this creation of mine. There is a gamete of stuff out there:aigo: We came to TEC3 or the new TEC GT (a scaled down version of the TEC3). What fuel C16, but that is $9.00 bucks a gallon. Okay E85 or E99(?), need a lot of pump for the "E" stuff. But it can tame the detonation monster lurking in my 15:3 cylinder walls. So the "E" fuel it is! What pump??? I like this idea

The intank pump will be a 255 Walbro, the "big" pump will be a Bosch 044. Injector size is still up for grabs?

I have 550's and the 255 for a pump. It's more than enough with the extra stroke and 60 over pistons 10.5 comp.

Are you on pump gas or ethanol or something else? The ethanol seems to require a lot of fuel. You know I hear you, but it's that extra 5 points of comp. that makes this crazy. Your set up was my original idea to do but then the question was..Are you trying to blow you car up!?

If I remember correctly, the E-85 is kinda corrosive, and you have to have special coated fuel lines. Not positive, so you might check into that, just to be sure...

Just pump gas, why I only went 10.5. Yeah another 5 points comp. is a lot.

Your right....

Gotcha, what's your power output? Did you go with any cams or headwork?

 

[DEFIANT 7M]

You know I am going to hit this thing with a least a 200 shot too. So I have to have plenty of fuel. Or she will go straight to hell fast.

Cams and headwork, stage I port job, oversize valves, springs

Kool....I got to catch up to you guys. How far are you from Nashville? We are going to thrash on this thing soon.

Couple of hours, I'm about 30 min. south of Cookville.

Something old to some new to others...

Any thoughts?

Some bottom pics. Notice the "ARP head studs" we had to use because the girdle is very thick. Not good shots but a few of the clearance areas. Notice how deep the piston is drawn down in the cylinder.

 

[DEFIANT 7M]

A few more. We also polished the piston tops.
