Very interested in this. Please keep us updated!

Fred Allen Burge · 10-25-2010, 09:01 PM

So few builds like this. This is how I want to build my next street car project, I hope this one stays street legal.

Bravo.

Tiny_T · 10-25-2010, 09:07 PM

thanks everybody. and yes this is most definitely going to get more street use than track. gotta make some money back somehow

This is one of the cooler builds I've seen in a while. Glad to see more young folks our age with fab skills. How long have you been welding? I assume for a while by the looks of the garage? Help your dad/family?

Definitely subscribed.

thanks yo, iv been welding since I was 13 and tig welding for the last few years. My dad built this shop, which is our home shop, in 1994. Iv been paying my dues for a long time now to be able to use everything in it. We have an amazing relationship but he builds his stuff and I build mine. I have learned so much from him by just watching. Its cool because even though Im young we feed off each other and I can give him suggestions and he actually uses them, and he definitely points me in the right direction when I get stumped. I cant believe that after all this time he has never put down a weld on my car haha.

I'm guessing this is a drag car. Looks killer.

Any guess on what type of ET to expect? Looks like you are keeping IRS, that right?

CursedGTR · 12-12-2010, 03:08 AM

I was only able to view a couple of pictures (stupid government computer here in Iraq). I definitely appreciate your efforts and think your build is dead on. Keep up the good work.

leekim240 · 12-12-2010, 04:54 AM

Great build keep up the good work....

ESone3 · 12-12-2010, 07:51 AM

Outstanding! If you ever move to the Chi and need a job, let me know.

S-Nation S13 · 12-12-2010, 10:25 AM

..holy shit!!!! tube chassis nice, looking at the previous pic, is that strurt tower bar one piece, that would suck if you had to do head work NO HOMO, great build btw keep it up

zylvia213 · 12-12-2010, 02:06 PM

legit set up. I wish I had time and a place to do this on a S chassis. Definitely like the tube chassis. This is what you call a build. GL

thanks! I appreciate that. and thanks everybody as well!

the car is a straight line car, but will mainly see street use. It will have carpet, nice paint and bodywork. im all about having function with form, and havent encountered an area where I had to give of form to get function yet.

im staying irs for now, we will see how well i can set it up to hook.

im doing a different style front suspension so im cutting the shock towers off and going a different route, ill post pics of that soon.

the goal for the car is to get to the chassis cert. (8.50's) when it will get to that im not sure, but I do have plans of purchasing a 7675 precision at some point for this motor.

PerilousActs · 12-12-2010, 03:11 PM

What kind of suspension setup are you going with?

s2kguy17 · 12-12-2010, 06:32 PM

QA1s maybe? sweet build

Michael Nolan · 12-12-2010, 10:57 PM

Flicktitty · 12-13-2010, 10:58 AM

im in oconomowoc, just a half hour west of milwaukee.

it should be done sometime next summer depending if I can ever work on it! I just got another part time job at an industrial metal fab shop so im really eating up my "working on 240 time"

Tiny_T · 12-17-2010, 02:50 PM

I need a damn chassis table!!!!!!

the turbo manifold is just on their for shits, im making a whole new setup, and going with a precision turbo. but here is how it sits after 4 hours of cutting and re building

M11's · 12-17-2010, 02:58 PM

isn't this more detailed on ka-t?

Tiny_T · 12-17-2010, 03:01 PM

maybe some of the older pictures, but i post all the recent stuff on both

s13dan · 12-17-2010, 03:06 PM

I have seen plenty of 1.5 60' on IRS S13's but those cars were in the 11's.

With the times you're planning for you might be paving the way for IRS drag 240's

I cant wait to see it done, I love crazy street cars.
