Off Season Sled Pulling Mods

[TIMTHECARMAN2004]

I'm no sled puller but have you guys looked at isspro performax gauges? I know they have a peak recall feature and a data logging function. That way you can go back and see what all was happening through the pull.

Yep we sell those gauges at work. I however like the fact that you can datalog a ton of things with EFI Live. So instead of having all of the gauges in the truck, we can install some sensors plugged into the V2 and wala...:thumb:

Autometer comp series and spek do that as well. They can also be used as controllers for nitrous and water/meth too.

Also saw these, but we are not using anything except a Water to Air Intecooler.

yeah logging would definitely be the better option for full blown comp trucks. for joe blow who pulls or races from time to time could at least see there min and max after the run

That's good to know...so anyone want to explain how I can hook up and log analog gauges with EFI?

Has anyone thought about making metal or reusable gaskets for the LB7 upper valve covers? Sure would be nice for maintenance and not have to deal with RTV.

 

[madmatt]

that would be awesome

Now you have me thinking.... If only my five time TTPA points champ LLY was an LB7 how much better could i of done? :spit:

I do heart my LLY but the three LB7s I have cracked open would be way more fun without dealing with that crap lol

IIRC Merchant had some neat quick change valvecovers on his LB7. I thought the pics were in his garage on DP but i dont remember. IIRC they were just two big nuts and there were studs in all of the bolt holes that just helped align the covers. I would thing something like this with an o ring seal on the top gasket would be a slick operation.
