and its running
So made crazy progress in the beginning and stalled out due to funds and illness, got back on track and now its running . Have to trim throttle cable to fit and hook up transcooler. Sounds mean, sadly the timing gears don't really make any noise.

Re: and its running
Awesome! My gears are kind of quiet too, might get louder as they get some more time on them.

Re: and its running
I'd think you'd want the gears quiet?

Re: and its running
i.de say but when you have the gear driven timing it usually sounds like you have a blower and that could be miss leading.

Re: and its running
When I listened to that video you posted, thought right away that there was a gear drive in it. I think you can get the gear drives either loud, with the blower whine or quiet.jzwartster wrote:i.de say but when you have the gear driven timing it usually sounds like you have a blower and that could be miss leading.

Re: and its running
I wanted mine to make more noise, you can barely hear it!

Re: and its running
I have a pic of it in but embarrassed as it looks like a rat nest with all the TC wiring poked out of the way. I have a sound clip but it is just ROAR with 3inch dump out of the open headers . Exhaust is next then driving, ordered stuff for it already.

Re: and its running
I think most are quiet but Summet has both the loud and quiet versions, depends on how the teeth are cut. Lost my blower whine when I upgraded to the new four lobe design.carvinmark wrote:I wanted mine to make more noise, you can barely hear it!
Dave - snowing again, 5-6 above for the next three days as the high.

Re: and its running
Mine was supposed to be "Super Noisy" and has big square cut teeth on it, but it wasn't very loud. Why I got these though, there was a chevy truck that ran around town that you could hear "whining" from 2 blocks away. I was like MAN his blower was loud but it turned out to be gears.

Re: and its running
But the down side is you have someone pull up next to you thinking you're sporting a blower and he finally has a real race and when the light goes green you got nothing and he's long goneSoul wrote:Why I got these though, there was a chevy truck that ran around town that you could hear "whining" from 2 blocks away.

Re: and its running
thats not happen with me, been in about ten races like that and no one has touched me yet. my truck is quick and has lots of torch and good tread where the tire wont spin they grip. Actually put grooves from both wheels in front of my house doin a lil power break with about 7 revelotions.
