Hi i am from Sweden and have been upgrading this Olds
I choosed to keep the hood low for stealth and the car with an unchanged look
so i concentrated on a Bulletproof Engine,Trans and Rearend.
Engine SCB 355 Dart alu heads 230 cc runners 9.7 compr
Steve Morris Cam shaft hydr roller
Holley EFI Dominator with E-85 its just going in the car
TH 2004r +900HP by California Transmission
Rear 9" ford with 3:70 gearand 35 splines Strange axles and discs
Stock suspension with adjustable Konis
Procharger F-1R provolute by Steve Morris pushing 25 psi.
a youtube clip show me beating porsches under 3 laps after that the brakes were finished At that track i lowered the boost very much to get traction maybe to max 15 psi.

Thanks and yes its a wicked ride at 70mph if you dare hit the floor it makes 2 nice marks
And at a bad track and me as bad driver it spun the tires half the 1/8 mile and finally got traction it hurled towards 1/4 mile finish.
So its a overpowered chassis with much to small tires but its fun and simple every time i drive it. :D

thanks all of you
I have been watching this website since 2005 and reading the most of it
This thread will continue with the Holley EFI Dominator installation
and brake upgrade upfront and how big brakes will fit 15" wheel I am shooting for 12"Discs.
how big wheels can fit upfront 16"? but what low profile?
the picture is 12" disc with wilwood and it fits nice

A youtube clip on my friends Ola and Mats Anderson (Twin Brothers) and their fast Opel Kadett Wagon
8,25@153mph@1/4 mile with blowthrough Carb Procharger F-1R E-85 and 25psi of Boost SBC 400 DART

Only to convince Rickracer he has to get enough fuel in the engine :bang:

Is that a Vauxhall Wagon? (or an Envoy?) I haven't seen one of those in so long, and Never a wagon and certainly not that fast! I don't remember what it is! Harry

The last week as been focus on Brakes
I don't want to experience the track day when the brake fluid boiled and I had 90-95 mph going in the pit lane with no brakes.
The S-10 option isn't enough so I will go for another target.
the option is http://www.wilwood.com


310mm 12,19 inch Disc
2pc 160-11839
or
2pc 160-11839-B
2pc 120-8071-L
2pc 15Q-6828K

323mm 12,72 inch Disc
2pc 160-2540
2pc 120-7762-FS 6-pston caliper
2pc 15Q-6829K
The brake shop here in Sweden say that its the thickness of the disc that takes away the heat
The thicker the better the disc doesn't absorb the heat so fast and cool better before next braking.
The plan is:
Using original Monza spindle with reworked fittings for the brake Caliper
Original hub with 4x100 boltpattern but it was hard to find wheels
S-10 Hub Cutting the disc and making bolt pattern for the new disc on discsurfce.
And make bushing on the tap so the S-10 outer bearing will fit,... the inner bearing is the same as Monza.
I will find out tomorrow if this will work out.
But it is expensive.
If this work maybe this should be posted on BRAKES for an option to S-10 brakes
