Just a few pics from a home built car (motor, trans, 25.2 cage, wheelie bars, fuel cell, turbo kit, etc. etc. etc.).
Bought the car new in 92 and whacked the crap outta it after throwing a blower belt in a race in the finals. No more blower belts. 101mm made big power but took forever to spool. Maybe the twins will help a bit.

Re: HOME BUILT CAR 25.2 W/TWINS

that car is sick! any support brackets on the turbos?? should be! any track times yet?

 

Re: HOME BUILT CAR 25.2 W/TWINS

Yup each turbo has a bracket that is bolted to the frame. The turbos are blocking them from view.
No track times yet.

 

Re: HOME BUILT CAR 25.2 W/TWINS

very very nice man! how fats has it gone?

 

Re: HOME BUILT CAR 25.2 W/TWINS

No track times with current setup.

 

Re: HOME BUILT OUTLAW CAR 25.2 W/TWINS

awesome, more pics please

 

Re: HOME BUILT OUTLAW CAR 25.2 W/TWINS

WOW what ci.? and turbo size? was the cage a kit or did you bend the tubes? Did you have any trouble getting the air out of the cooling sys. I like how you mounted the rad. 8)

 

Re: HOME BUILT OUTLAW CAR 25.2 W/TWINS

363 ci aluminum dart block Victor senior heads.
Twin ballbearing 76mm (upgradable to 80mm).
Bent all the tubes myself chrome moly normalized milt-6736b 1 5/8 x .083 wall tubing, tig welded with Lincoln 185 tig using ER70s-2 rod. Tubing bender (JD2'd) is in the background of the pic of the motor on the engine stand. Cage already certified 25.2. Cages are pretty much the same (in a way), you must get the SFI specification booklet for the certification you want to obtain, and follow the SFI specifications. You can vary some but must fall within the specifications listed.
No problem getting the air outta the system (electric pump makes it easy).
I'll get some more pics up soon and thanks much for the compliments.

That car is BADASS..

Thanks DARKHRSE99

 

Re: HOME BUILT OUTLAW CAR 25.2 W/TWINS

Beautiful car!! I love the way it sits. Can't wait to hear some track times.

 

Re: HOME BUILT OUTLAW CAR 25.2 W/TWINS

Do you ever plan to drive it on the streets or is it a track only car?

 

Re: HOME BUILT OUTLAW CAR 25.2 W/TWINS

Track only but it does have working head lights and tail lights.
Car should weigh right at 2800 with driver (230lbs), 2570 without. So it will only take 1400 rwhp or so to cut a 7.3 in the quarter mile

 

Re: HOME BUILT OUTLAW CAR 25.2 W/TWINS

mind me asking what kind of jig table you used to build the center section or cage section for the car on? I am wanting to 25.5 my car myself and was wondering. I am thinking of building a 1/2 -3/4 thick table to put the body on and then start the cage build. Then remove body of car and finish the cage. Any help would be greatly appreciated and more pics of cage being built would be great. Car looks great.

thanks

 

Re: HOME BUILT OUTLAW CAR 25.2 W/TWINS

Tacked cage up in car, rechecked diminsions using 4 x 4 x 1/8 square tubing for jig (didn't change much though, leveled car and kept everything dead nuts level during assembly) pulled out cage and welded er up. Put back in car tacked rest of chassis, lifted up car and pulled out cage/chassis and welded er up. Put back in car and welded in. Just make sure you follow the SFI specs and you will be fine. There are many pics of cage being built here;

Re: HOME BUILT OUTLAW CAR 25.2 W/TWINS

thanks for those build pics. I think my next step is to get the sfi book and read more about it. Did you buy a pre bent cage?

 

Re: HOME BUILT OUTLAW CAR 25.2 W/TWINS

No, bent all the tubes myself, chrome moly normalized milt-6736b 1 5/8 x .083 wall tubing, tig welded with Lincoln 185 tig using ER70s-2 rod.
