4861, Problems running at track! Sorry, LONG
Posted by freddy_00_69, Jul-27-05 06:20 PM
I ran at the track, the first time i ran with my boost spiking to 16 and then dropping to about 13-14. Well i had a 2.4 60ft and ran a 9.7@77mph. I missed 3rd gear so that slowed me down and i had to put it in 3rd causing my boost to drop and then have to spool up again. It sucked but oh well, first time running since motor built. The second run, my transmission mount snapped, now i just replaced that mount today before running since it snapped on me a few days ago. Is there a some way to get my power to the groud without snapping mounts. One of my bolts on the rear mount is lose so i think that may have contributed to it since the motor jumps i guess when i go wot. I am gonna weld it back together since it snapped and it fits back together perfect. Hopefully that will help and fix that rear mount. More times to come after that.

id get some motor mount inserts if you don't already have some, maybe a solid from motor mount, and a while back in the general or performance section they were talking about drilling out the mount bracket hole to fit a fatter bolt to take out some of that slop in the from and rear mounts, see if that helps any

oh and your post wasn't long at all
