Do I have to run 3 of those like you did in order to handle the reverse voltage or could I run a single light as long as it has 14 diodes?

@@jaycogan5182 thanks dude I appreciate it!!! The entire build is on my channel to catch you up to speed haha it’s a ‘91 base model bird and it’s been LS swapped and pretty built up. Still need to upgrade some suspension and needs a big brake upgrade very badly to be more of an auto x machine. A 6spd would help with Autocrossing too as this 3 speed auto (th400) has some long ass gears. 3.23 rear gear is also more of a top speed gear vs a 3.73 or 4.10 but it’s plenty fun for now so I’m just enjoying it!!

In a 13 second car, yeah, just a swap to a set of DRs aired to about 15 PSI will feel like you're glued to the ground vs. street tires. You'll dead-hook it no matter how hard you nail the launch. 103 MPH sounds a little light for a cammed LS (assuming just a basic 5.3L truck motor w/ cam and spring upgrade?). Seen similar combos trap in the ~110 range on the regular around here. Any restrictions, tuning issues, bad trans, etc.? If you're running at altitude, disregard. Altitude kills N/A motor power quick. Glad you had fun, tho. Nothing better than "wasting" some time bombing the timers at the local track!

Thank you!!! You nailed it dude, BTR LS1 Stage 3 N/A Cam kit with the other top end goodies included, in an otherwise stock 5.3 even running the stock truck intake! No tuning issues with the term x and have a solid TH400. NE Ohio so about 600 feet above sea level for a perfect atmosphere on a cool spring day. Intake temps were like 85F at idle once warmed up. My buddy in the M3 has a set of radials from his GN for me to slap on so next time we will air them puppies to 15psi like you suggest!! Can't wait to launcha and feel like im glued vs this spinning through first!! Thanks again for the advice and kind words man, I am having a blast finally enjoying this 4 year long project. Been enjoying it along the way but not to this level is has involved a lot of trial and error/beating on then breaking the next weakest link.

@@almostoemgarage8143 It'll live for a while. I was running a similar 7.5" 10-bolt rear under my Malibu well into the 12s on DRs through an automatic. In F-bodies they call them 7.625 rears but it's the same thing. It's the little "baby" 10 bolt. Remember to check that the pinion nut is tight from time to time (or red LocTite it). When you hit them hard multiple times, but not hard enough to break them, they seem to loosen up on some rears. Not my vid, but here's me (white Malibu) running late 11s on DRs a few years back. I just heat them up good in the burnout, bring it up on the converter and mat the pedal on the last yellow. Car drives so straight and boring I could make a ham sandwich on my way down the track. Other than adding nitrous, the car is still the same as you see here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fuCjdrde3ciqnZc.html

Honda XR400R done 4000km and was getting difficult to start Once started it would only run on half choke. So I bought a rebuild carb kit with all the needles and rubber rings. Hex Main Jet - #140 Slow Jet - #52 Jet Needle - D625 Fitment: Fit for Honda XR400R 1998-2004 Cleaned that carb like a new pin. Fitted the new parts. Paid attention to the original screw settings. Starts easily no choke. Open it up it dies. Put half choke on it just about let’s you open the throttle but doesn’t like it. Put full choke on and can open the throttle and drive about easily. What have I done wrong and what do I need to do?

Finger tight until you feel some resistance then another quarter turn or so then back it out slightly is a good starting point. DO NOT GO TOO TIGHT. Starting out looser is safe and you can go back and tighten it slightly until that extra rattle is gone.
