Default CARTEK VERT 9ssssssssssssss
http://www.cartek.net/videos/sun982.wmv

Here is a vid of my Cartek built 346, f1 blower, and RPM TH-400 trans at the track.

The weather was not so good. Every body was running 3-4tenths slower then there P.B. Plus im still learning the new trans.

Thank you CARTEK for building this beast and helping me at the track

Cartek designed a custom gate to fit in the stock shifter. It took them some time for them to fab it up but the final appearance looks like stock!!
