I finally got the car on the dyno at Richard Clarks yesterday. Clint was teaching me how to tune it. We got 659 HP @ 21.5 lbs of boost. When we upped the boost we got spark blowout. Need to reduce the gap and also fix a voltage problem as it was just above 12V the whole time.

That's through 3 mufflers. For me the quieter the better and no drone.
 
You can see there's nothing extreme in my combo. I wanted a robust engine when it was rebuilt though. It's about the tune which I'm just learning about. I also have relatively high compression at 9.47:1
 
Nice number!
Higher compression does wonders...

Very cool Dave!

Is this a street car?

How drivable is it?

Can you just hop in drive or is it finicky like a racecar?
