Yeah, I got a few dyno videos and what not. I will try to get one uploaded and hosted tomorrow so you guys can hear this thing run.



Thanks for the kind words. This thing should be installed soon after we get back from PRI in Florida. Finally got in the other suspension pieces we needed!

Those options are out of our control. No big worries though, there are going to be other crazy ERL motors out there !

Thumbs up

Linda won't need any help learning to do burnouts with the 500 inch ERL. Now Linda will have to worry about NOT spinning the tires all the time! HAHHAHAHAHA! Good luck with everything Gray and I can't wait to see that crazy car run down the track!

do you have overlayed dyno graphs of the LS7 intake manifold versus the BECK sheetmetal manifold, i'm interested to see what that looks like.

I can certainly set one up when I return to Houston. I am currently here in Orlando, Fl at the PRI convention.
