not going to lie building my motor was probably one of the most expensive and stressful things I have ever done. But now that its together, I feel I have the bottom end for 500 whp and practically bullet proof against my 20g.

 

Yeah I would say so plus you got E85 almost impossible to detonate on. So do you know anyone besides Zrated that is tuned by BennyHHR? That is who I am gonna invite down to tune me

 

i dont know who bennyhhr is. I know its hard to make a decision on a tuner cause it can make or break you. Literally.

 

Well Kenny pretty much vouched for the guy. Saying basically he doesn't leave until everything is just right.

 

I know Kenny and Joe the tuner, Joe is a great guy and always has Kennys car running like a champ. I am personally going to use him to tune my car when install my PTE 5558

 

That is the same turbo im running is it not?

 

One more day and it's going down lol. Parts from Hahn are still processing not sure how many more days til it ships but should not be long after the weekend. I'm gonna clean and polish my ttr manifold tomorrow and will post some pics plus make sure my spacer for meth injection fits properly. And clean the bov too.

 

OMFG ITS HERE lol Friday is almost here gah I cant wait. Hopefully parts should be in beginning of next week OMG I feel like a little kid waiting for Christmas

 

Received my package from Zrated today with the LNF Alternator, tensioner, and bracket. Now all I need it the pigtail and belt, thus the complete alternator swap. Woohoo Thanks Kenny

 

Start of the day



Parts off??





Parts in boxes ready for members



Downpipe will be no more after tomorrow lol



Bye bye wittle m62



And my buddy wrenching as I take pics lol good times

 

sweet

 

Maybe I'm just spoiled having concrete but **** doing that on dirt/gravel! I've been under my car so much during my build and it would have sucked if I couldn't use a creeper

 

Yeah imagine dragging a 60-75lbs jack around in it lol

 

I think doing it in the dirt/gravel is admirable. You build where you can. I remember being a lot younger (lol) and would work on my car in my moms gravel drive. I was more into car audio and electronics at the time but still had to crawl around to run wires and crap. Just good memories. Great job Bad-A-SS

 

Thanks c130 Im just trying not to do something wrong lol trying to get parts off still like the downpipe trying to figure out what to cut it with. Also do I remove the whole tensioner and bracket?

 

saw zaw..

 

Oh yeah lol Didn't think about that.. Duh

 

Why are you cutting your dp off?

 

Because it is bolted to my bad-mab header then welded into the rest of my exhaust

 

Took off alternator, tensioner, n bracket. Then installed lnf alternator n tensioner. More pics soon to come

 

go to big lots, but a 25 dollar angle grinder, go to sears and buy a whole bunch of craftsman 4" cutoff wheels for said angle grinder. Take it to the exhaust. I have used my big lots angle grinder for years and never burned up the motor. Great tool. I think its Cambell Hausfeld, which is actually a great company. The cutoff wheels are quality from sears and they are only a buck or two each.

 

PEEK A BOO says the elusive bolt


MOAR TO COME SOON when parts get here :/

 

Update - Alright guys parts wont be here til early next week Still need the connector for the LNF Alt and to put the belt on but everything else is basically taken off

 

Tires for the Cobalt : )

 

Click. I envy you too working in the gravel. Can't wait to see the results!
