The Sander wheel is great deal for the money + it does have a bead lock on them.

I opted for the Micky stuff since I like them. The Micky wheels are a full machined wheel so it keeps them really true.

What I will be doing is getting a 15 x 12 with 5 1/2 back space and making it into a 15 x 11 with a 4 1/2 back space when the wheel gets the bead lock put on them. This will be the rim I use for a 275 tire and I will have a set of 15 x 12 for the 315 tire but to tell you the truth I might just scrape the idea of 315's and put a smaller turbo on the car from the start. My combo I really don't think will have a chance to run with the top cars in Outlaw trim with the way all the rules are now. That is a whole different topic.

The pump is right at about $2200 for the 7 stage and the pan is roughly $1600. So the whole set up like mine is $3700... I'm sure if you called Dailey and spoke to them Bill would be more then happy to build something that will fit your needs. This one has about everything that can be done to it. Most builds will not need this set-up and Bill went a little over kill on it. They were not sure on how it was going to work since the only 2 built were Tom's and mine. You could do away with 2 of the stages and save a good bit but I wanted to have them for future use. As Tom said his is pulling 20in Vacuum at 35 psi of boost. In most cases pumps cant keep up but this set-up really works.

Thanks guy's

I hope my car runs as good as my bike. LOL

Thanks for the support. It is really cool when people stop by at every race and tell me they follow my build on this site. It is truly a great way to get to know some of you.

Thanks

Thanks Guys

I was at DMC Racing on Thursday checking out the chassis work. I have some pictures of the Midwest Chassis front bolted into the car a long with the 25.3 update. I have them on my phone and have to get some time to download them to here. I'm not at home so it makes it a little tough. I will try to get a few up tonight or later today. Thanks.

Well I got the push rods last week from Jesel. Since the spring pressures are high and they are almost 10 inches long I wanted to make sure they were stout. I got 9/16 centers that tapper down on each end. On the ends are a ball and cup set-up. This will make for a stronger and better fit onto the rocker arms.

Here are some pictures

Next are some chassis things.

Eric from Mid-West Chassis made a killer front end for the car. The fit and finish of this thing is top notch. It bolted right in the car without any type of pulling or pushing of parts. Anyone needing a fron end should really check his stuff out. I also have a Fab rear end that will be going into the car that is also really a top notch part. Here is a few pictures of the front end. I will put some rear shots in a few weeks once it is all bolted in and final fit.

 

Everyone has asked about the cage work and chassis stuff. It is tough for me to get pictures since the car is at DMC Racing in Halifax, MA and I'm in Indy 900 miles away. Well I took a trip out a few weeks and got this stuff. The cage was done and painted to a 25.5 spec and since it was just sitting for this season I just went and had DMC update now to a 25.3. It just makes sense to do it that way. We have also since then changed the way we are mounting up some things. Here are pictures of the update being done.



Here is a shot of the trunck area. We were doing a fuel tank in the back but now the fuel tank in the back here will be turned into the Ice Box for the intercooler and Trans Cooler. The fuel tank will now be up front and only be a 3 Gal tank.

Now onto some more engine parts. After seeing the work of John Marcella and what he can do to a Intake I didn't have to put any thought into it. I don't know if I even have to say anything about this. The only thing I will say is ENJOY!!!!!
