I got to play a little on the dynojet this past Fri.

 

I can't see it ever sagging or rusting. Oddly enough, its very light. Maybe 50 pounds per section..

 

Happy with the number? Did you come away feeling like you were lied to?

 

Naw. It was kosher with the numbers that the adjusted mustang dyno produced a few weeks back. I'll be using this dynojet from now on for tuning/mods in the future.

 

Funny, the torque numbers are almost the same as my Tundra.

 

At the wheels?

 

I don't know, just what I was told by Toyota. All I know when I put my foot in it, I can be to 60 in around 6 seconds. I don't do it very much. It scares me. the truck really isn't the best handling rig out there.

 

That's 310hp/326ft lb at the flywheel.

 

I'll buy that. Big difference, no doubt.

 

Wait...its the 5.7 or 4.6?

 

381hp/401 lb ft for the 5.7 - 12%-15% parasitic loss in the driveline.

 

5.7

 

My project.

1975 Classic Mini with a B18C from a JDM Integra Type R

 

I need to see more pics of this!^

 

That's beastly!

Build thread on a local forum I frequent. Lots of pictures from the beginning to where I am currently with it.

 

Very cool. That rollover jig did the trick and the startup vids are sounding great. How long till you're out cruising it?

 

I've had it on a few short runs, but the fuel pump starts making some awful noises once it gets up to temp. I tried replacing the pump, and added a fuel pressure gauge. I don't seem to lose pressure as it get noisier, but the pump starts to draw a lot of voltage as the noise goes up. Leads me to believe I don't have the right pump. So I've got one with more output on the way.

I've been at it for a little over a year, with time permitting, hoping by the end of the summer/early fall to be street worthy.

 

Reminds me of my old project from years ago; little car big motor...

 

How was the torque steer? The mini is pretty intense. I'm hoping after corner balancing and alignment it will help.
