Introducing Project Unfair, The fastest All Around Pro Touring Car On The Planet!

[nvr2fst]

I agree with Tyler if your going all out on the motor you might as well get the best dam oil pan pump set up available (Dailey Engineering) Bill is extremely knowledgeable and a great guy to work with. Be prepared to open your wallet wide, a complete set up from pan to tank will run you up over 4K. If you plan on running AC you will have to do a custom drive assembly and if you plan on tracking for long periods at a time order the air separator option to prevent oil from foaming.
Bill has in the works a oil pan to replace the stock pans on the LS7 which will maintain your present AC and no modifications if you care to wait. I choose not to considering we built the chassis around the pan specifications (deep pan version which is still less in height than most other after market pans) It is expected to be out in July.
Kick ass blower set up BTW

Armstrong Race Engineering is another good dry sump guy

Ok just got the July Super Chevy and NOTHING is in it!!!

VERY UNFAIR

We had to wait for the June issue of Super Chevy Magazine to hit the streets.

Maybe they meant the issue that hits the stands in June which perhaps is the august addition

X2 The tease continues...

[ProdigyCustoms]

August is the first issue.

[zerotofear]

What's the budget for this project?

Your just a BIG tease Frank

If the new transmission you were waiting for is not produced in time you might consider the Quaife 6-speed Sequential-Shifter...

Now that would be the BOMB!!!

It could handle the horsepower...

[ProdigyCustoms]

What's the budget for this project?

No budget, we are simply getting the best of the best materials to build the best all around car one can build. This is not a budget build. No cheap parts will work on this one. We are building a Supercar, and Supercars are not cheap.

With that said, $4000 oil pan kits are not in the budget either! We do have to keep in mind we are building something to run some track days, not the 24 hours of Daytona!

Cost, Labor? If you value R and D time. R and D time will be HEAVY. We had 100s of hours in it before we touched the real car. Labor hours will be very high. John, Michael and I have multiple long days in it already. Hours add up quick when there are 3 of us working on it. Writing 72 pages of tech in the next 12 months is a lot of hours.

We have goals, we are only worried about the goals.

We will add up the cost at the end.

I want one of these.

[jp455]

Does that gearbox work with or without dogrings? If it does it would be a pain on the street!

I'm looking at different transmission for my Mustang. Looked on the Quaife web site, it said it was good for 400 ft/lbs. I think I could break that, and I know Frank, and John could break it with th HP they are looking at. Is there a beefed up version Ray? Ron

[nvr2fst]

The new Quaife is open face dog box on the gears and drive discs.
By all means this tranny in stock form will not handle Franks and Johns intentions on torque/hp.

[ProdigyCustoms]

It is looking like a Tranzilla. We used a T56 Magnum I have for another project for mock up just in case.

The Transzilla Close ratio box has awesome gear ratios

2.29
1.60
1.21
1.00
.85
.76

Should run like a 2 stroke dirt bike with those gear splits. And should pull the double overdrive.

Here is a little live action shot for you guys. We are finishing the firewall and tunnel today for the next story installment. This was the heaviest fabrication yet, but we used some old tricks to be sure anyone could do it.

Hey Ron,

The picture of the trans I posted above was the first RWD trans I could find before I went off to church this morning... I didn't have time to download the actual one I was referring to. Here's their "Viper" model that gets used for road racing all the time. As you can see, it says it's rated for 750 hp. I'm sure there's quite a bit of "safety factor" built into that number... Off the shelf, they have a Viper bellhousing but when I contacted them they said they could produce any bellhousing for the major car brands out there...

If you go on some of the Viper forums they are using this transmission behind a number of twin-turbo setups with no problems...

Frank, I'm sure the Tranzilla is a GREAT choice and cost quite a bit less than this transmission anyway...

[ProdigyCustoms]

Seems impossible that skinny input shaft could hold 750HP. But I would not doubt Quaife

[wmhjr]

I wonder what tq it will hold. Maybe it holds 750hp at 12000rpm but not 550lbs tq? That shaft looks a little puny to me for high torque also.

I tell my wife I'll do this, but I never do. Otherwise there would never be a next time.

Now we're getting somewhere. Is that an off the shelf piece you are using on the firewall? It looks like it is. Interested to see how you do the gas pedal.
