76 bug I swapped for my Dragster,Slapped in the 1915 w/T04 ,40 weber DCOE and BTM to control timing,, so far so good,,need to install the bung for the MTX-L

Looking good, any hp nm numbers?

slapped in some huge jet in the 40 DCOE
from cb updated kit mains:?: & airs
F7 e tubes
1/16" drilled acc.pump jets
250 or 300(I forget ) inlet an opened up too no screen
boost ref the reg
"Life begins @ 15lbs of Boost"
A/R goes to 10.5 even 9 on boost 12.5 idle and cruising,,,/off idle
so I'm in the ballpark

PO'd Mike, pretty cool! Is it streetable or straight line only.

Lee

Very streetable,, but no wipers,,yet or brake lights, but It's has carpet & a Headliner and a Passengers seat
so Drag only for now finally drove on a paved road
,,Boost creep to 20+lbs ,, bang ,,blew an intake gasket(found intake leak )
all's well,, going to the Michigan 'Bug Run' this Sunday

Haha, somethings gotta give!

How very true, Better the one dollar gasket then a piston/head ect.
How many passes can a bone stock trans take
I will see I did slap in a stock or HD Pressure plate and a sprung 4 puck
maybe I should put a sticker on the dash saying:E-A-S-Y on the hole shot!!!

Stock trans + 20psi of boost... hmm. We should run a book. I say, umm, 4 passes if you're gentle.

Bets? cool send $$ to Madmike's Racing fund
4 passes would be awesome
Last time I had a Bug at that strip i made one pass , Then broke a cv 500miles trip for me just to break it
Boost will be turned down to 12-15lbs or so,,????????????

all bets in? I made 3 passes No didn't Break but I wasn't impressed with only a 14.9@89mph/14.6 same speed (10lbs) with a simple turn of the knob (15lbs) 13.2@104mph ,,, i didn't want enter the race program with only the stock trans, an time trails were over ,thus only 3 passes ,I had of all things battery problems only 10 volts running my MSD system ,Everyone said it sounded good and I did hammer on the poor trans on the last pass, 20lbs in the slicks helped save it so with more seat time I'm sure this little 1915cc would push it deep into the 12's or? but the 2276 is itch'in to run so 1st a better trans If the pic loads ?, i did beat the cool green bug bug,he missed 2nd his first run with a turbo too i sold him my old header last bug run,blown'thew 48 IDA's

My Crew Chief told me i did do 4 passes, , I was the first car down the strip that morning and printer was acting up to no slip

madmike.......very rich jets are holding back some performance.....You have to let's us know jet sizes.....I have every gage but no wideband yet. I have same size engine with 8:1, c45 cam, 1.1:1 rockers, 40x37 mofoco heads, EB40 rajay (EF70 compressor/B40 exhaust)....( used to run Garrett t3), .... 40 DCOE 2. I have 170 airs, 165/160 gas, .75/.78 pump jets... ... Had 65 f8 idles, .75 and .80 pump jets to remedy a lean pop when stabbing throttle, but too rich at idle. Needed less fuel at idle and more at progression phase. 40 dcoe-2 has 3 progression holes, I added a 4th (.75mm) progression hole that allowed use of .53 f9 idle with air/fuel mix at 2 turns out. ...I'll try 55 f9s and reset a/f mixture later. If your dcoe has 3 progression holes adding a 4th hole makes progression smoother without having to run huge idle jets. Tedious work but worth it..

Thanks,58rag, mine is a DCOE 4 whatever that is?
has in it for now 165/155 mains,175 airs, F11/F7 e-tubes,60 F6 idles, I didn't look at the darn A/F gauge on that last pass ( I need to take my crewCheif for a ride )
I would rather have to fat then lean , seriously Thinking about swapping the 1915 to 2276 (It needs a nice over the Alt.Header so I can run a fan,, crackhead running the lights about cooked my heads last pass look he's smoking at the stating line )
then slap in 170/180 jets(Dave Kawell suggested),, never had an issue with popping when stabbing the throttle? but i did drill pump jet to 1/16"
I have no clue if it has the 3rd progressive holes?,maybe next time I have it off I'll remember to look
