Dyno will see race gas

the rest of the time E-85
Why run race gas when E85 is basically pump gas methanol? I wouldn't be afraid to run it at 35-40psi.

Were you reading my mind?? The Eagle will be fine as long as you keep it under 700 whp.

Tuning helps, but also the grade of material they just happen to be using that day in China where the rods were made also matters.

I wouldn't be so much worried about the rod itself, but the rod bolt, and eagles run ARP bolts, so you should be fine for a while. There was actually a thread on NABR about this rod, and no one on that board has had experience with an eagle breaking from too much power yet, so that is a pretty good sign.

No but they are prone to wrist pin failure unless your running an upgraded wrist pin, or a Weisco HD series piston...

lol, no other videos yet...

I called to make a Dyno appointment only to find out that I am not " welcome " their...

Oh well what can ya do.

My axles came in and they do in fact look a little shorter than the AWD's so I'm thinking that I did in fact give them a good part number, and that I do have a good set of axles for the car :) I'll know later tonight and will keep you guys posted!
Andrew.

Must be that same Chump shop in Nebraska that gives my buddy Will a hard time when he needs something. I guess some people care more about being 15 and not about making money.

With the lack of business coming from the " high performance " crowd around here you would think that for their best interest they would let me tune my car on the dyno, their not making any money unless the rollers are spinning, I didnt want to waste my time and get in an argument...

I didnt know that if you blow up a car, ( even if you do go get oil dry and clean it up for them ) that your still not welcome...

I guess if they are that concerned with me blowing something up I dont really want to go their, becuase god knows that at this power level there is ALWAYS the chance for something to go wrong.
Andrew.
