Car Model: SuperBee
Year: 2008
Engine: S/C 426 Stroker Hemi
Default My Fall / Winter build
My SuperBee is going to HRS this Oct to be stripped down. We are startting by removing the body from the frame 1 for easier access to the drivetrain and 2 to add some support to stiffen it up. Full subframe connectors are being welded in as well. I have a (seasoned) 6.1 block being turned into a 426 stroker with one off heads and cam being machined just for this build. The tranny is being given some love and a 2800 stall, the rear is a Taylor Racing 373 LSD gear drive, with new drive and half shafts / hubs ect. Adding drive shaft and half shaft loops will be installed. A five gallon fuel cell with be installed in the trunk opposite my DEI cryogenic intercooler / fuel rail set up. The Techo will get rebuilt and fitted with a 10lb pully. API will be diong alot of the motor build and Karl will be tuning the car. Crager steel wheels and Nitto drag radials will be the gummi bears at the track. There will be some powder coating under the hood and a few parts anodized to add some pop, the exhaust tips are being powder coated flat black. A new wings west roofline spoiler will replace the current one, and neffywrap will adorn the interior. All in all it should be alot of fun I will post pics as the build gets underway and build sheet and dyno #'s as well.

The build has begun, as few changes... I an not going to neffy the whole inside just some of it. Taylor Racing has not responded adfter our initial contact, so I think I will be using Arrington for the tranny back drivetrain.

We stalled the build for a bit to get some new people on board and it has changed some things all for the better. As in my other post the wheels I thought would work will require a spacer and I'm not running with spacers. Also Taylor Racing did not return our calls so we are moving on, I looked into the PPP 373 with driveshaft setup, but that has evolved into one of the people on the build deciding to build me one themselves given the fact that my engine has also been changed due to a really nice set of pistons becomming avialable so the 426 stroker is out. I can not give the specs on the motor till the builders of the rotating ass, and heads gives the OK I know sounds off but I will post the tech specs and sheets as soon as I can. Man builds are always so fluid I should prolly just shut up till it's done but it's just to exciting, ok some pics, Oh we're dropping the rear and the engine / tranny on monday I'll update pics then.

Thnx Brother ! I'll give you a call on Monday and give you the details, the numbers are huge at least I think so projected based off a car that has been around out in UT and my build just takes the per further. Again I'll post the dyno sheet fro tuning to give on paper numbers but the projected figures are 975 / 1000 + with the car easily in the VERY low 10's and in the 9's IF it will hook up. Here are some more pic's we also dropped the rear but I left the camera at work >.<. Ouch my front facia takes a beating cant do much about that the suspention is dialed in perfect for road racing at MMS. There are some pieces being made for the Bee a spliter canards side spoilers for road racing. it's just too much fun to decide where it will have it's fun...
