screemin eagle Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 I was being cheap so I went with pte and the first one popped in 25 miles complete bearing failure witch destroyed everything. Now this one is burning alot of oil. It's a 5857 journal bearing. I should have just spent the extra cash on something better. Can't wait to see the results. I really am envious of you jz swap guys.

gtxthunder Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Clutch slipped on the dyno. I guess it's time for an automatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technology Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Sweet update! I'm pretty sure you can get a manual to hold as much as any auto. plenty of 8 and 9 second poopras out there with stock 6 speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtxthunder Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 And there are many more options for clutches for 6 speeds. I'm running a r154. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
importwarrior Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 what auto? powerglide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technology Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 lol, powerglide. I think two speeds is better than 5 or 6. Especially for slow muscle cars bracket racing in the 8th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelrc51 Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Nice build......really making me miss my MKIV. As I am sure you know there are plenty of clutches that will hold 1000 to 1300 hp out there, the tilton triple is a fav of people making big power with the R154. But there isn't anything better for drag than a glide! What's the new turbo, still 67mm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yzrider Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 That new turbo is 80mm. Can't imagine when that'll spool but should make like 800 on pump gas haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
