Thanks Alex! I have been working on it all day today. Got to make a few test runs in it. Everything seems to be working good. I have it running rich and at low boost. I am going to drive it some more tonight and do some more test and tune on it. It is not that fast yet but the noise is unreal! I can't wait to get it running good.

You HAVE to get pics and sound of that. I know other people have stepped up for hosting, but I can host also if you need.

My friend took some pics of it a few weeks ago but I have not seen them yet. How would I go about getting the sound up on Ford Six? I don't think I have the stuff to do it. I wish you guys could hear it!

If you have a laptop, plug in a mic and just move it to the engine. If you don't, get a recorder to record it that has a headphone jack. See if some friends have a male to male cord that you can plug into the "Input" jack of your soundcard or onboard on you computer. I know they have them at RadioShack...but I'm sure they are overpriced. I wish you lived closer, I could get a recording easy.. Someone else might know a better way.

Yea, my friend that can do that will be back around christmas. I guess we will have to wait on him. I know he can do it no problem.

if you have a casset thing u can recored it on that then use a mini plug to mini plug wire and have the head phone jack from the casset player go into the mic of the computer, then play the casset then recored it that way!

O yeah incase u didnt see my above post i can also host!

most digital cameras will take short videos with sound. If you have a friend with a digital camera, see if they can hook you up. I can host any video you want. I have 10GB of bandwidth, so I shouldn't run out. I can also do any video editing you need at my work.

Heck Dan, if you have a camcorder or VHS recorder, I can convert from video to digital if you send in the tape.

Really? I did not know you could do that. I can get all the 8mm footage you could ever want! Maby we could do that.

[CobraSix]

you're not talking about the old projecter 8mms are you? Can't do those. If you use a camcorder, I just need it converted to VHS before you send it.

haha slade no 8mm, lol yeah they make a little card that can convert analoge video to digital for about 40 bucks, i have one the quality isnt superm but it is way better then what you need for movies hosted over the net.

here is a link in case any one wants to see the card.

Congrats... I will be one of the very many waiting for sound, video, , more pics (your geocities page seems to have had more bandwith used than allowed when i tried to look), etc.

I did this with my 8mm camcorder and made .wav files for sound. No adapters necessary.

I am working on it. Still trying to get my car 100%. Did a LOT of test and tune last night on it. It is running WAAAAAY better now. I think it will run real good with a little more boost and some more tuning. My friend should be in in the next day or two so I wil se if we can make some movies.

I just got "my" turbo on there the other day. It is leaking some oil and it got everywhere under the hood. I have been sick the past few days so I have not been able to mess with it. I have not forgot I just want everything to look decent for some pics.

Yea that is what he told me a few days ago. What about Disney. He is crazy! Have you seen his Lincolns? Disney should be able to help you out on your car if you want to turbo it. He helped me a bunch on mine. He knows his stuff. Turbo that sucker. You will not be sorry!

These forums are NOT safe anymore!!! DISNEY'S HERE!!!!!!




ANyways... I was the guy with the cattle prod in the Killa's side. LEave it to me to whip out a saw and some pipe and start hacking away and say "It can be done!!" Fast forward 6-8 months and it now IS done.

See Dan runs inside on test-n-tune night while I take the jets down 6 sizes, and shorten the rod on the wastegate. How could you go wrong? Less fuel, more boost, more timing.....ITs the perfect mixture!!!!



I can honestly say that the turbo 6 popper is one mean ass MoFo. I knew it would pick it up, but that thing is a TURD on motor, and runs like a sonofabitch with the turbo!! I would almost wager that at 9psi, it DOUBLED the stock hp.

And smooth as silk too. NO problems with the carb getting a bad signal or anything like that. IT runs and drives liek a stocker until the boost gauge swings bast 0 and into pressurized territory.

Dan may have won the race of who gets boost first, but mine will be faster!!!!!


NOw...ABout those pics there buddy boy. Did I get any with my camera? My battery is dead now, so I cant look on it. I cant remeber either. Did Kyle get any pics? I can upload his pics to my puter and send them to one of these guys to host.
