Sean, when are you going to make some shakedown passes?
PS, stay away from the "rocket cars." <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: how to(hopefully) make a 346 go 8 seconds George, I'll try to stay away from those GD rocket cars <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> . Trevor I'll be ready to run it as soon as it's ready to run, In english that means I still have a few logistics to work out <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> .Jason, the motor is borrowed . The short block has a nice set of pistons and rods and good hardware (all ARP) but thats about it. The compresion ratio is 10.6 to 1, and the heads are done by Trevor Johnson. This is an exercise in N20 tuning, I need to make almost 3hp per cubic in to put enough power to the ground to get the car in the 8's. Is it possible? who knows, but I'm willing to try. Dave, lissy's got a policy on me already, if you pay the premiums for a month or two she might just cut you in <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> .
