I'm not sure of the exact specs but I'm pretty sure its a 2.4L stroker out of an Eagle Talon with a 20g turbo and 150 shot of NOS. LOL

Its actually a ls2 402 low compression with twin tc76's and Th400. This was just the initial tune on low boost to get the car drivable. It has quite a bit more in it for sure.

I think Chad is going to have fun at this level for a little while and then turn up the wick.

If it makes you feel better Bruce, we can hook a tow strap to your little orange car so it will look like you are keeping up in the videos.

It would be funny to see Chad open the shoot on the Mexican mile and still pull away from you.

The initial timing was off by close to 20 degrees. Even though we were commanding 18 degrees advance it wasn't even close. Meaning that during our dyno runs we were at 0 degrees of timing. Lucky we didn't hurt the motor!!! Probably at least another 100 hp at 12 psi.

Awesome work Brian!

I really think Brian is hard on himself about his welding ability. His welds looked good to me and they are functional.....

Have a few loose ends to tie up and then I'm ready for some shakedown passes. I gotta thank Kris (2ktransam) and Brian (Fireball) for all the help and advice they have given so far. Couldn't have finished this thing without them two guys. We will soon see what a 402 and twin tc76's can do!!!!!
