BUILD THREAD Project long time coming

[Supercharged111]

Not sure when I'm going out again. Brakes were definitely getting a workout. Having a 25 minute run time will definitely put everything to a test. One issue I had was the ps started to overheat. Started getting a little whining from the pump around the 18 minute mark. Going to put a cooler on the return line and that may fix it. Engine never got over 196° so I'm hoping I won't need to mess with that. Need to adjust my rear upper control arms to center the rear end and stop the tire rub. Hopefully with 14" rotors and 6 piston calipers on the front, and 12" rear rotors that'll be enough. I can't fit anything bigger.

That's plenty of rotor, it's going to be pad selection going forward and keeping the fluid fresh. And yeah, I run a trans cooler for the PS. 100% need it for that sort of activity. Expect the things that give you trouble to evolve as your pace increases. And I'm guessing you've seen this thread, but if not:

Cody has for sure, but also he hasn't followed main stream stuff either, it's been R&D for a lot with him.
A lot would have thrown in the towel long time ago.
And he's still running Olds engines which I give him a lot of props for
