B6T festy build thread

[shorestiva]

It was wore out. Burning oil and low compression. I really dont have money to spend on a rebuild right now so I threw my old b6d block in.

new pics

I think I mightve made my mounts alittle too low lol.

[shorestiva]

Well not much to see waiting on some parts to show before I can put the rest back together.

Should hopefully be running again by the end of the week.

We hauled it up to cecil county saturday. Ran 4-5 times but was only able to get one clean pass. The solid motor mounts definitely helped alot with the wheel hop but it will still spit it out of first if I try to leave on launch control. Also it just doesnt want to go into second most of the time and if im not careful and dont take my foot the whole way off the clutch pedal it wont go past the launch rpm setting.

On the last pass I launched it and got about 60ft out then the rpms just shot up and it stopped accelerating. At least it was just an axle not the trans.

wow lol don't see that often...some nice carnage!

[shorestiva]

I know I was kinda proud of myself lol. I managed to run a 13.6@105 a few passes before that. Best time so far.
