thats because i really havent... and if it was a little problem it was solved realitively easily. Everything has been going together like it was meant to be!

yes... and the funny thing is... i havent touched the fender wells!




also this 9in is out of a '79 versi with '94 mustang GT wheels on it. IT FITS EXACTLY PERFECTLY!!!

[SmokinRAM114]

I got to see this thing in person today i must say the thing is fuggin awsome. the pictures really do no justice on how close some of the stuff clears, or barely clears lol. The motor sits alot higher once you see it, it'll need a big big ass cowl! the stance on the car is hard to believe that it just fit togeather with out having to shorten up any axles. definatly cant wait to see it done.

[jbiscuit]

those Mustang wheels look dope on the Satty! Good work thus far!

[juicedimpss]

[Flicktitty]

good too see it coming together!

but why is this in the import section? /Sarcasim

[sloLs1]

well i have a gm motor/trans, ford rear end, gm car....


so you know most of those parts are forign made!!!:rolf:rolf:rolf




but actually all these parts are from when cars were cars.... not tin cans or plastic toys! theres actually standard bolts.... not metric on this car!!!

[pickardracing]

Nicely done, bro. Just make sure you put all them now-useless saturn parts in my pile of stuff. :D

[pickardracing]

I posted these threads on some of the saturn sites. Sick ass project. Hope you dont mind.

[Beagle]

maybe thats how them guys found out in california lol.

[Syclone0044]

This guy deserves a ton of respect. Not only does he have the vision to start a project like this, he's got the motivation to complete it with lightning speed!! Cheers to you mate, :haveabeer :haveabeer

Now go get it done and let's see how it rips!!

that a holset turbo?

[TurboSC2]

Yes sir, its an H1C. I wish I would have gotten an HX-40, but This one isnt too bad based on what little I have driven the car so far (down the street and back on 3psi)

[Flicktitty]

Hey i've seen your Blue car a couple years ago i think. you were on hirevwi.com too weren't you?

[sloLs1]

no i think your thinking of JW... he has a blue sc2 that looks simlair...

[junk mx6 no rly]

ive got a hy35,so hows boost in 1st gear and what cm exhaust housing do u have?

[Flicktitty]

no i think your thinking of JW... he has a blue sc2 that looks simlair...

that could be too. sorry don't know my sattys too well.

[TurboSC2]

yeah that is probably JW.

As far as boos in 1st, it seems to start building around 3500-4000 in 1st but my 1st is so short that there isnt much load on the engine so I wouldnt really use that as a good comparison, plus Im running a 3# spring right now so its not spooling as fast as it will when I have a spring in there that holds the gate shut better. I think its an 18^2 but Im not 100% sure from memory, I can check when I get home if you want?

And finally a question to the author (sorry for the hijack lol), how exactly are you mounting the rear end? Im seriously considering building a new SC2 next year and using the LL0 in a RWD configuration. I dont think anybody has done this before so I think it would be pretty cool. I was thinking of getting either an adaptor made or a bellhousing and matching it up to either a T5 or T56 tranny, then to maybe a GM 10 bolt rear end...so its really helpful to watch somebody do a RWD :)

[sloLs1]

i made a complete four link setup. this would be your best bet if your looking for straight line performance. i used a 9in just because it's indestrucable. you can buy parts of these through summit/jegs and have a bullet proof rear for less than what it would take to get a 10bolt to fit and handle some hp.... still need more info??? i bought the complete four setup from summit for 1600 and all i have to do was assemlbe it, wled, and then set it up correctly.

[6forwardgears]

I can't wait to see the SBC Saturn in person, that's like the funniest thing ever :rolf

I imagine it's kind of scary to control oversteer in that thing with the short wheelbase.

Do you have a link for that? I was gonna use a 4-link in combination with the 10bolt, I was either going to make the bars myself or get them from www.suicidedoors.com (I was originally a minitrucker lol)
Im looking forward to seeing it all the way done.

agreed can't wait to see this :thumbsup

[sloLs1]

there isnt much oversteer... it feels a lot like a mini van on steroids!


and everyone wants to see and i really want to run it! so i just want next friday to come faster! (i would run it earlier but i am still fininshing up the seat belts and final tuning the carb. i just hate working in this heat!!!)

[TopSECRETHatch]

Damn thats Crazy!!

[Rotorhead-20B]

wow I head about this a lil bit ago but didnt know to what extent it was going to....its just like the h/b on hondatech with the LS1 in it...but your in the mil so I would say this is better...ill give you some gas money I want a ride in it..lol props bro.

[sloLs1]

lol well i do techinially have 2 seats in it... but unless your as small as my GF then your prolly not going to fit in the front... i have my battery mount where the passengers feet go. i was originally not going to have a passenger seat but my GF really really wanted it in there so after the car was just about complete(interior wise) i had to stuff the seat back in!

[Beagle]

you got all the sheet metal done now?

[sloLs1]

you got all the sheet metal done now?

99.9% of it... just need to close off the last 2 feet of riught behind the driver seat.... so it will be done this weekend....

[Waver]

I will be more than happy to have you kick my ass at the track....It will be cool to say I got beat by a sbc powered satty
