MikeL Do you still have yours?

3-22-14 9.68@145mph first pass on fairmont 3.0: http://youtu.be/OgGgShB1iHQ

Junkyard motor and eBay turbo

Edit: it's actually an s476 now but he was running an eBay turbo and making 10 second passes.

That is a s476 on that car. I have been following denmah and the sloppy mechanics for a long time it is hilarious to watch him throw stuff together and go fast and not give 2 shits how it looks!

 

[NAFLASH]

And for cheap. He probably has less money in the whole car than we do in our transmission.

Tom, if you or your wife has a facebook account, join the "Sloppy Mechanics" page. Some of those guys have some pretty cool beaters with LS swaps.

I thought there's been a thread or mention of the infamous Fairmont on here before??? Surprised you've never seen it before, Tom. It's ridiculous how fast it goes on a reasonable budget.

What's he run for a trans?

 

[NAFLASH]

4l80e with a transgo rebuild kit and a converter. Home made trans brake as well.

Transgo only makes shift kits. They don't make rebuild kits.

I think you're right, Mitch....but it may have been a few years ago, and my memory isnt that great anymore. :rofl:

Sorry guys I have been super busy with work. Thanks for the compliments. Car is absolutely blast to drive. My son and I took it on a 6 hour cruise this last weekend. I have a solid rear in the car but it still sports all stock suspension up front and only after market lower control arms with stock shocks. Still has stock exhaust manifolds. It now sports a kenne bell 2.8h. Got a really good deal on it as a guy totaled his cobra here in town and I got it from him. Sold my whipple and have nothing in the upgrade lol. I run et pro drag radials out back. I put the t56 back in and glad I did as the auto was boring lol. Car runs on E70. I have it set air fuel wise at 10.9 so there is more in it and the DA that night was 2200ft which isn't terrible but not great either. Only made the one pass as I have no safety equipment( roll cage) and they was cool and ask me to just slow it down lol. This blower really comes on and never lets up. The top end power is awesome! There is video of this pass that a friends wife took but her phone must have been the first camera phone ever made lol.

Mike. I was going to get a TVS before this blower came up. TVS is the best all around blower out there in my opinion!

 

[Robby05]

[Mike L.]

Can't wait till mine does that.:thumb:

 

[SteveFord]

Mike you will love it. Best part still retaining all the factory options. I give my friends crap that run around the same times as I do but sweat their balls off in the summer heat with no air lol.

 

[A. Stock Lbz]

Very impressive for a bolt on car!
