What does it weigh without you in it Phil?
What do you have to weigh?

Ours is 2780 without me this year.
We have to put 50-60lbs in the car.

^ That's quite light considering an iron block and a turbo setup. What's the estimated time line for some test hits?

Very soon, just need to finish up a few \small things. Started working on testing the electrical system. Also found a pleasant surprise. I had about 50# of ballast still in the rear of the car from last year. Its on the passenger side rear tire and its tucked away. So its fairly light. I am going try to fire it up thursday.

Sorry man, I forgot all about the pics just trying to get it done. My wife and I were out there last night at 11 when the kids went to sleep. Yesterday I worked from 5am to 6pm.

I'm just messing with you buddy. Get the car done, then take pictures. I'd rather hear about you racing than gazing at a few progress pics. Keep up the good work!!!

You know how many guys groaned when the read that...... "oh gee 50 pounds" You know what it costs to lose 50 pounds.

Good luck, looking good!

We can only hope it all comes together as planned. With the 632" guys being able to run twin 94s at 3250 or 3175 something has to give for us small block single turbo setups.
