Ideally, we will have the car at the first WCHRA race in Outlaw 8.5.. It is in Lunati's, Manley's and Darton's hands now... If all the pieces show up in time, we will make it. Everything for the car is at the shop, just waiting on some engine parts..

With the current setup it looks like you may have some shifting issues.....

Wait until I get the front drive distributor kit and have some valley rails made for the heads that will allow me to put my Ford Motorsport valve covers on it... then I will **** a lot of people off..

Starting to put the interior back in... paint is still drying on the cage and dye on the plastics, but it will all be ultra flat black when it's done..

You and both.. I can't believe I started this build almost 3 years ago...Amazing what can happen when you have a baby....

I haven't look much at the dizzy kit yet.. I have seen them, but I am not sure how it will fit with my motor plate and cooling system, but I definitely interested in it, but only if I have problems with the 6010 box @ 8500rpm

Dashboard is in, all the rear plastics are in, but my computer ate my pictures... so here is one shitty cell pic..

Well, the engine had some issues on the dyno( an exhaust valve failed) and it took out the block and several other pieces. So, changed some pieces and now it has this.....
Still going to finish the naturally aspirated engine, I refuse to not finish it. but now I am building two engines, so it is taking longer than expected.

The new engine is a 392" LS1, nitrous injected
MID Sleeved LS1 block, 4.155 bore, 3.6 stroke, jesel belt drive



All Pro LSW's, Jesel shaft mounts...


Beck Sheetmetal intake, 2 sets of plasma cutters... Big Stuff 3, 4 stage dry sump...... and yes, I am keeping the manual transmission.

Work has been getting in the way and my chassis builder's wife has been really ill and family comes first.
