X275 Challenger (READY TO RUMBLE)(UPDATES) - 10/16/13 01:23 AM

The car is ready for its maiden voyage this weekend at HollySprings. Jason Lee will be behind the wheel. I will be driving it next weekend at Northstar Dragway in Denton for the 15K race.

Well had the car up and running and getting ready to load to take to Hollysprings when it busted two teeth off the flywheel! Brand new billet flywheel from JW. I have to get with them first thing this morning and see about getting a new one before Denton.

That car is begging for some white classic r/t side stripes and some challenger and r/t emblems in the grille.

I agree just think they should be black.

Re: X275 Challenger (READY TO RUMBLE) - 10/16/13 08:34 PM

Ordered black stripe kit and they aren't right. So they are making a new set.

Re: X275 Challenger (READY TO RUMBLE) - 10/16/13 08:36 PM

Nice!! You're so going to stick out in that class. Isn't it like 99.9% Mustangs? Good luck with the maiden voyage.

Re: X275 Challenger (READY TO RUMBLE) - 10/16/13 10:47 PM

That would actually be good. I'm slightly over 3400# race ready. Everyone else will be at 3200# or less the next two weeks.

Re: X275 Challenger (READY TO RUMBLE) - 10/16/13 11:06 PM

Any idea how much power it makes? Or is it a secret.
By the way I really think the car is bad azz.

Not yet but should make around 2100 hp. I know of other LF88 smallblocks that make at least that much power on the dyno.

Re: X275 Challenger (READY TO RUMBLE) - 10/16/13 11:30 PM

Power won't be an issue. It's always power management and how good your converter works!

Those turbos will get weight or outlawed for next year. They just went 4.50s at ducks race, in two separate cars. But go get them before you have to but a smaller one on.

That's 100% correct now that the end of the season is near,the turbo's are showing there true potetial.4.50's @ 160+ almost at will for the sharp crews.

Re: X275 Challenger (READY TO RUMBLE) - 09/07/14 04:39 PM

Heard the motor is very sensitive to conv and are having problems geting one that works. P5 motors are supposedly a narrow power window and you need to keep it in those rpm ranges. But a bad a-- car anyway!
