This is the best Build thread in the history on the internet, and to think that most of the work was done in some one's shed on jack stands is just mind boggling.

thank you Phil and good luck with your beast.

Some toad a while back was trying to figure out the displacement and came up with 225 cubes.

I'm one of the few here that has actually seen this beast over the build - and it is a BEAST!!!

Now, I can't wait to see it run.

We were trying to head to the track thursday for some shakedown passes on low boost(35psi) but we won't be able to make it happen since there is a major race down there this weekend. I'm going to take thusday and finish up a few small things on the car. We need to:

Heat wrap the shifter cable && Battery wires
Adjust the suspension
Scale the car
Do a through check from front to back

The toad you are referring to is me! I said it was 211ci. Which is correct based on the bore and stroke provided by Phil. I knew he was playing around and I took it further and kept on going. We are not all as lucky to you for being able to see this thing. For that I am envious, lol. Is it going to dyno this weekend?

I've got free time for the dyno, I'd much rather take it to the track. Since the track is closed we might as well go back to the dyno.

The car is loaded up and we're going to head to the dyno in a couple hours. Plan is to see how much boost it takes to max out the dyno. I'll report back around 10-11:00.
