Upgrades from Frankenstein Engine Dynamics
I somehow got tied up in a thread over on Camaro6 talking about this, but 2 weeks ago I had a great conversation with the crew over at Frankenstein Engine Dynamics, 48 hours later my car was on trailer from Phoenix to Weatherford Tx. I should have final dyno numbers within 48 hours but here is a quick look at what was/is being done.
We had some dyno numbers from late last week but fuel delivery was an issue - SOO we upgraded fuel pump and injectors Frankenstein Stage 1 LS3 Heads Frankenstein Stage 1 Cam Shaft Circle D Single Disc Torque Converter Frankenstein Ported Stock Intake Manifold Frankenstein Ported Stock Throttle Body ZL1 Fuel Pump LS9 Fuel Injectors 10% Underdrive Pulley LS7 Lifters LS2 Lifter Trays FED Pushrods Rocker Arms with Trunnion Upgrade Head Gaskets Front Cover Gasket ARP Head Bolts Pre-Frankenstein Mods 2” Texas Speed Long Tube Headers Vararam Cold Air Intake 2.5” Inch Cat Back Flowmaster Exhaust E85 Conversion Can't wait to see final numbers. For those of you on instagram - you can listen to how she sounded before - Zapp_it_ss Last edited by zapp_it_ss; 08-25-2017 at 10:26 AM. Reason: Adding something |

I can't get the video's to embed.
Here is the before - https://youtu.be/HrWn2ZXIRWI Here is the after, not fully tuned - after the second video we added a new fuel pump and injectors. I should have the final vid tomorrow and without question on Friday because i will be in Weatherford picking it up. Last edited by zapp_it_ss; 08-23-2017 at 06:45 PM. Reason: not working |

Quick question, was really easier to disassemble the engine in the Chassis versus pulling the motor

I'm presuming "Frankenstein" is just a cool name. In the monster AND guitar world, it means cobbled together from old and spare parts. (think Eddie Van Halen's first guitar he made from parts and pieces) Is that the theme here, used parts?

 Definitely not your "typical" Frankenstein of throwing a bunch of old and spare parts together. Their heads are amazing. I can tell you that the service and communication has been unreal. I have worked with Chris Holland, Jeff and Russ. They have all been amazing and extremely helpful with the build. They didn't push anything on me and definitely took the consultative approach to help point me toward the end goal. |
