I'll also mention that you need to make sure the case of the alternator has a good ground that is common with B-. Modern electronics require many more grounds that are connected to the battery than these cars did back when they were built. My motto for EFI system is, if you think you have enough...

If you’ve done everything I’ve outlined here, there is no connection required on the two pin. Just connect the charge post to your battery.

Get in, shut up, hang on.

I was .089 seconds behind him in autocross. I'm still on 235 front tires.

It's so good I sold the small block at Moparty. Don't need that where I'm going... Why did it take me so long to get on the bandwagon? I wish people would preach how good it is like I'm am. I need other people to make the same expensive decisions I do.

Dude is a machine!

Would the offset UCA bushing be allowed in that class?

I'm likely responsible for the pressure to do autocross. Sorry, not sorry.

I previously ran a 1.08 t-bar, Hotchkis shocks, and their sway bars. You will read online that big bars will beat you to death. That statement couldn't be more false. If you have a good shock to control the spring rate a big bar offers, you will be good. You will also be amazed at how just a...

That's him. I never looked at his setup super close, but I peaked under it this time and saw stock stamped steel UCAs! Factory style Chrysler steering box, not a borgenson. I realize some of this stuff can have modifications, but dang it's unassuming! Great car, great guy.

Denny's mounts allow for adjustment, I don't recall how much. Maybe an inch. I initially had them on the engine so it would be as far back as possible. That proved to be too far back for me. I have my main engine harness connector on the firewall and it was just too close to work. It also put...

I sure hope this thread doesn't get derailed again, like most of them do on this subject matter. For those actually interested in the content I'll provide an update on the car with real data, not speculative. I get it that most that disagree aren't educated on the physics required to actually...

Sorry I missed your question. Yes it's an Allstar performance ball joint. Attached is their catalog page with all the available part numbers. Just google up the part number and you will find someone selling them.

@DionR I told him I was happy that I sold him the drug that is known as autocross and now he can't go back since he drank the kool aid. He proceeds to put those comments in AI to generate those photos. F-ing hilarious!

Yeah yeah, that sounds super familiar. You will be searching for big brakes and 18" wheel before you know it. When you have it torn down this winter cutting the tunnel out, you might as well direct the cut off wheel towards the back for a mini tub job.

These photos show exactly what tire the weight was transferred to when trail braking through that turn.

When I have some time, I'll provide an update on my weekend at Moparty. For now, a couple highlights. The only tool that touched the car all weekend was a torque wrench to check lug nuts. I got 17 autocross runs, 3 drag passes that were hot laps, and 18 3S runs. I'd say I put this thing through...

It’s from Tanks Inc. I don’t recall the brand. I’ve planned on upgrading the fuel system at some point anyway, so not a big deal.

For those following along here, I went to autocross this past weekend. This was the first time since I had the power steering problems last time out. I'm happy to report the modifications (corrections) I made worked. It was also the first time successfully around the cones with the hemi. Very...

Here's the course map. I'd say the second big turn on the top right, it was very neutral, but no 4 wheel drift because speed wasn't high enough. The long sweeper around station 2 I could have definitely done some drifting there, but still very controllable. The last big sweeper had some speed...

I have until midnight Wednesday to cancel hotel rooms. Worse case, I wait to load up Thursday morning and just get there late.

It rained Saturday afternoon and Sunday last year. Right now it's 50% chance of rain, which is also 50% chance it won't rain. Too many unknowns right now. Also, the current path is literally the road I take up there. It's no fun driving in torrential rain with strong wind gusts towing a trailer...

I attended my local autocross yesterday. It seems my power steering problems are fixed. This was also my first time with a successful run around the cones with the hemi. My first run was a disaster, likely due to cold tires and me being unfamiliar with the throttle input this thing needs. I...

I trimmed the lip on my quarters. I think it's only about 1/2" wide now.

Oh, pre heat. Sensor connected directly to the gauge "A" always heats up faster. Not by much, maybe a few seconds.

I installed the new 1" bungs right on the surface of the pipe to get them further out of the exhaust flow, instead of recessing the bung. Innovate says they don't need to be in the flow, so why not keep them protected by being further away. The tip of the sensor is even with the 1" bung, so I...

That's the highest the sensor reads. The engine isn't running in this photo.

I updated my build thread with this information, but I figured I'd put it here as well. Earlier in this thread I mentioned I failed an O2 sensor. Well, the second one didn't last long either. As it turns out, the bungs I used were only 1/2" tall which put the tip of the sensor into the exhaust...

I've really been thinking about trying the Ride Tech spindles for the GM A,B,&X body that accept the corvette hub and brake assembly. Since I already own the hubs and brakes, I would only need the spindles and steering arms. If I were to go with the Ford version, I'd have to get brakes, hubs...

I wanted to provide an update on this alternator modification since I now have about 600ish miles on my G3 swap. The voltage regulatory is working perfectly. Just last week I drove to a cruise night 70 miles from home. This was the longest drive at night since getting the car back on the road...
