It won't be listed as a part for the M113k. Ask for Harvey Baker and tell him you want the 6.2 AMG damper on drawing number SK260G1 and the pulley on drawing number SK260G6. He should be able to find it that way; if not tell him to look up my old emails with him.

Also be aware that you will need the stepped water pump pulley from VRP.

I totally forgot about this thread! The car is running and so far I've made one complete 1/4 mile pass. It did 11.19 @ 126 spinning badly through 1st gear. I've got it setup to launch in 2nd now, but there's no test-n-tune this weekend due to the fires in Oregon. I'll have to wait at least another week to go for that 10-second pass.

I broke into the 10's today! There's still more on the table; next Saturday may be my last chance to race it this season, so I'll do a little more tweaking this week and try for something closer to 10.50.

Yes, I actually weighed it on the way home from the track yesterday. The truck scale said 3450 with me (200lb) in the driver's seat.

Late to the thread, but impressive early results for the 113k/208. You certainly using first gear again for 1.6 short times,right? Are you on drag radials these days? Last question for now, did you go back to OEM convertor or are you using the one with a little stall?

I was testing on the last day of the season, so I launched in 2nd gear just to get a good pass in. Next season I will go back to 1st gear and pull timing at launch to control wheel spin. It's the same re-stalled converter I had in the NA motor, but with the extra torque of the M113k, it's stalling to about 4100 RPM at launch on the track.

Hopefully the stall will come back down when you allow the gearing to help. That's almost powerglide style take off.
