Default VA speed solving my PTK/Ebay kit headaches.

I started with a 98 formula with a PTK t-76 kit with IC, with a low compression(8.7) 408 with patriot stage 3 lq9 heads, 02 z06 cam, built 4L80E, and 75lbs inj. Most all the supporting stuff is there. Ed has been a godsend on getting my car back together. Another shop that i wont give names left alot to be finished. He is currently finishing the conversion from maf to map. He is also looking to convert my 98 to a 99 pcm car. On its first pull Ed made near 600hp 12lbs so I am optimistic with some refinement and fixing of my electrical problems that I will hit my goals of a 9 sec street car. I always see on here alot of people trying to get there ebay kits running right and look for the same goals. Im hoping I can hit my goals on the t-76, but might have to move up to a PT-88. My plan is to see what the setup does on a near future track rental. Im looking to run 15lbs on the setup with pump gas. So keep your fingers crossed and pray for Eds skills to come thru.

your car is starting to show some promise-i wasn't sure when it showed up-but it has some potential.The wiring was just horrible-we counted 3 butt connectors in 6'' of wire.

Thanks for the props, but it ain't just me. Actually Brian is doing most of the work. We'll all be going over what it still needs, and in what order to address what's left. It's a shame you have to pay for some of this twice.
