Chow Went 8.21 @ 171 (warning v-8 car)

[John Wilde]

Guys,

Chris has been busy with some updates on the twin turbo v-8 WE4. The car now has a Power Glide and a revised Neal Chance Light Weight Converter. The new transmission and converter seem to helping get more power to the tires so qualification at this weekends PSCA Race was more like a 2 round test in tune.
We went out first round with a staging issue that was due to not enough passes on the Glide and the new trans brake. Chris still managed a 8.21 @ 171 with a super crappy 1.44 60ft. With the 60 back in the 1.28 to 1.30 range we are right on our 7.9.
The car will be out at Vegas in November for the PSCA Finals.
I think the magic number should come there.

Car: 3500lbs =(
-87 WE4 stock seats and T tops =)
-Stock Suspension by Wolfe Racecraft
-MT 29.5 X 10.5W
-Neal Chance 10inch Pro Mod Converter Aluminum Hub
-Mikes Power Glide
-Currie bolt in 9inch, 3.70 Gears
-Duttweiler 390ci TT V-8
-Duttweiler Air to Air Intercooler
-Twin Turbonetics 76MM Turbos
-Custom Twin Turbo Headers designed by Chris
-Motec M48PRO, tuned by Chris
-Weldon 2035 and 160 injectors

PS: I think we have about 10 more PSI to play with.

V8 or not, that's a badass car. Definately need some updated videos!
Also, does he ever make a pass with the T-tops out so the wind can blow through his hair??
