What is your ET goals Norbs?

That is a good question........too many variables, but if its not going to make 850 rwhp I won;t even go to the track with it...I;d have to start fresh with a new combo..but an 8 would be nice

However it is designed to be very streetable, grocery getter type vehicle..

What's the estimation for first firing ?

I might be able to fire it up with no inlet piping in maybe a few weeks, still got to work on bungs for the EGT's but I'dont think I can use all 6 the pass side they are impossible to get in. I still have to wire in the JMS volt booster for the fuel pump and injectors to run them at 16 volts, with a bunch of relays and diodes. The injectors will be full time 16v and the fuel pump only under boost. Next I get the wastegate solenoid working as well.

Did you make the headers?

Did you make the headers?

No they were bought off a board member, but did not fit my oil pan so I had to re-do sections of them. I would suggest you use a 1/2" thick flange, mine are not, I could have issues. I also had to redo the downpipe so I could actually make left and right turns without the dp hitting the tire..

Are you saying this is a fantasy engine? LOL, I just got a fresh bottle of welding gas, so I can get to work on at least 3 EGT bungs for now........pass side is mission impossible.

I'm afraid I can't make Xmas day for start up I'm still way behind on a few things, but I'm making progress...........
