top_shelf_12 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 I guess it's not too much more than a Halfmile from my house to yours but wouldn't know what to look for lol.

HiTech Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Please do. Sounds like a complete engine rebuild. gotta fix the motor now .the hard part has been why are we having a problem ..this all started when the car got wrecked at cc ..and we have not found it yet the reason ...i have some ideals of what is going on and it is not the motor that had the problem but was hurt by what ever it is .i know that sounds strange ....the motor is and was working its butt off but the car is holding it back sorta say ..as in dragging it down or like holding the brakes .....

top_shelf_12 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Did it knock the tranny around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiTech Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Did it knock the tranny around? THAT IS THEone main area i was going to look into .going to talk to my tranny man ....joshua ran a couple of laps holding the shifter back thinking it felt like is was not in the right gear ..go pro is a great thing .... i think something in the valve body may have got jacked ..and trying to run in between two gears ..and yes the rear end was so bent it shoved the drive shaft up into the back of the trans more than it should have .so i know it took a hit though nothing visible is broke and no leaks .anything is possible right now ..i need to look and see if the brakes are hold ing it back after a lap or two aswell though i have not talked to josh about that .

top_shelf_12 Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Would bent gears do that in the rear end or missing teeth on the gears? Not sure how they work exactly if it would even run that way but just throwing out ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iwinn12x Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Chris, if i bring plugs and wires can you change them out while your at it? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiTech Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Chris, if i bring plugs and wires can you change them out while your at it? lol now thats funny right there .......chris firing order on that old what ever it is car he races .is7 2846910.plus #. just may make it run faster... the pound key is the reminder you will need a hammer to knock the wires onto the cap or use it to beat the fenders in so you can reach the motor..or use the hammer on the8 to beat the crap out of it if dont run good next race ... all with love ivan.

HiTech Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 the go pro you can hear the motor pulling really hard but going nowhere lugging hard ...till about four laps or so left in the race then you can hear it drop the cylinder and start to misfire .oil pressure stayed normal through out .temp did not climb till the last laps ..hit the pits at 230 or so .temp ...but i know it was low on water by then ..so who knows how hot it really got ..but you know when we find the problem ill let yah know .i am really leaning towards the trans ..i am not a trans man .so who knows more than me maybe able to answer a question ...if the drive shaft was pushed up as far as it can go and i am sure hard ..could it have bent the main shaft in the trans .. i know i put a shift kit many years ago in a 350 turbo only to find out they put the wrong kit with the number .every time it went to shift from first it would try to go into reverse ....
