they're slow... I remember my parents almost bought one in the shitty green color they came in.
They did 143 mph which probably isnt that slow for what it was when it came out.

HAHA. Sounds like an AWESOME car.
You talking about my new car? Hell yeah they're slow! Gonna keep it that way until the built motor goes in
Mike, I am just getting a little Contour......
Damn, A ford contour.
It's actually my old Contour that I traded for my first bike.
and gonna throw these wheels on
keep in mind Bacon also owns an SVT focus and his dad has an SVT Cobra. You really think he's getting just a Contour? hehehehe

Shit no! Currently has a 2.5L HO engine but it will be swapped to a 3.0L from a Taurus and then eventually boosted.
O snap.. ROLLING SHOT

A buddy I bought this one from the first time around had a 3.0L turboed Contour. Made 380ish to the wheels. Twas fun.
oh so now you wanna talk shit again huh???? since the car is down and I'm building it, might as well step it up! And wax your ass with a full load of people in it, and the AC blasting- oh wait, I forgot to turn off the cruise control. lol

Gonna be better when I come get his sedan running wendsday
What new wheels did he get?
i dont want to be the one to relay that info. but they are WIDE
Hopefully not DRs
drag radials?
yup, thanks to steve, it passed. turning the timing down to 12* cut the nox in half!
Diamond Racing

Sucks about the bike Bacon. Never understood what's SVT about the SVT Contour but your build should be fun.

I am actually more a Ford person than I am a Honda person. The motor that will be built is a "hybrid" consisting of a 3.0L bottom end with 2.5L HO heads and IM with butterflies.
143 isn't slow today either :P

Doesn't fit a 3.9
Steve, you get your car home and figure out exactly what happened and what you're going to do about it?

its home. got it back around 3 yesterday evening.
Deffinately a bearing failure!! Plenty of oil in it (i checked it the night before it happened so I knew it was good). It was 100% my fault. My tuner wanted to stop at one point stating he didnt want to go any further for safety reasons. The turbo was past its effieciency range at 21.5psi so we were making more and more power by adding timing. We were getting results- constantly adding power without any knock! We couldn't get it to knock even in the mid day heat at the track! The motor was healthy and he stated he NEVER seen a car take this much timing and not knock, nevertheless with 173k miles! I told him i was making pull after pull (in the span of 3 days roughly 30-40 pulls) and no ill effects. We started to think this engine was from God above, and i told him send me another map: we're gonna go even bigger! At this point I already had possibly the most powerful 2 liter with that turbo (TD04) on 93 pump gas in the world! We were going for the quarter mile record saturday, but the heat was a heartbreaker (looking at the logs and actual ambient temperature, we believe cooler weather would have allowed the faggin wagon to go mid 12's).
We were still on cloud nine about the reliability and abuse the motor was taking at this level of tune. We were gonna go for even more....
That night, my gf and I picked up tommy and jamie and we met up with LB, steve, David, and bobby to go to atl to eat. We were 4 wide and did a pull from 65-120+. Despite the serious weight disadvantage, the wagon walked away from everybody. Upon slowing down I detected a bad noise and called steve telling him to listen for it as I drove by him. I was hoping it was the turbo. By the time we got to the restaurant, it was pretty obvious what was wrong.
The failure was caused by me being greedy. I was competing with another car my tuner was working with in NY. This other guy and I were going back and forth trying to make more power then the other despite the fact that our tuner told us to leave it alone. He said we were stubborrn twins. lol
while i was assuming no knock meant we were good to go, I didnt sit back and realize what was going on in the cylinders as we kept advancing the timing. It was creating more and more pressure earlier in the comustion process, putting more downward pressure on the rods creating excessive stress. the weakest part of the rod? the bearing.....
