PM sent PSJ. This is great. Can't wait to see the show and car together. I think it ould be bad *** as a stick car, but the auto would be safer.

I doubt that anyone at the Ford site will be reading on here for an advantage. John should be safe to talk about his combo once he gets it locked in.
On that PM you sent me John: Yes the GE/Westinghouse jet engine with afterburner will fit back there on a f-body, but you will need a new hatch. You will also need to race with the windows down.

I have talked to my brother who is an aircraft mechanic for the 183rd Fighter Wing. He will let John use a F-16 engine if he wants. 29,000lbs of thrust to the wheels
