Re: Project "Darkhorse" Spy Photo's!!!! **56K beware**
The diff upgrade was kinda a no brainer. How many s-10's on this site can say they put 500HP and 500TQ through a 7.5" 10 bolt with stock axels?? Sure I spent many hours making sure the pre-load and backlash was perfect but, I went 1.57 60 foot times with a 3800lbs truck. I know I was pushing it. |

Re: Project "Darkhorse" Spy Photo's!!!! **56K beware**
The rear end was $3000.00 From summit racing.
I run the factory cooler up front as well as a remote mounted B&M super cooler under the truck. The supercooler has a 10" electric fan and is thermostaticly controlled to turn the fan on at 180* The trans has never seen above 220* with this setup. |

Can't wait too see it James. Hopefully if that thing runs some descent numbers and makes the trip down here, we can run'em for pinks. HA. Dude that rearend looks sweet. This engine should be another outrageous monster from the Hatfield Performance Division.

Re: Project "Darkhorse" Spy Photo's!!!! **56K beware**
Good choice on the 9" rear. I know you have line lockers, but also have you considered a summit proportioning valve for the disc brakes in the rear? It's not a must have, but if you drive it daily you don't want your rear discs locking up before your fronts do. I have that problem right now with my Ford 8.8".
What are you considering for a compression ratio? What heads (combustion chamber cc mostly is what I'm wondering)? What is that block by the way? LSx no doubt, but I was wondering on the bore and stroke? |

Re: Project "Darkhorse" Spy Photo's!!!! **56K beware**
The truck has a praportioning valve but it is also 4 wheel ABS so the brakes should be kept well in check... As far as comp ratio and those questions... I am just teasing for now so you must wait ![]() |

You shouldn't have told me that compression ratio. My lips are sealed though, it's your news to tell.

Re: Project "Darkhorse" Spy Photo's!!!! **56K beware**
well i dont think it is a 5.3, because as far as i know no one makes pistons for that bore. Or at least on the shelf pistons. MY guess is 6.0 baby

Wow. Awesome job on the cleanup of the block. I will be watching this closely, as you and I have the same motor going in. Are you still using the 4L60E? I noticed pics of a tranny cooler mounted under the bed, any word on how much of a difference it makes in the temp?

. They're not that expensive either for the peace of mind offered. Is yours thermostat controlled or do you flip a switch to activate the fan? |
