And either way, the specs on the cars components are propriotary information belonging to CARTEK. And is up to their descretion to release. I have no right to weather I payed for the components or not.
Im going way out to left field on this analogy, but do you thinks Scudaria Ferrari Marlboro is telling their engine specs to Mild Seven Renault F1? You think they tell MacLaren Mercedes or Williams Cosworth? Obviosly this is not F1 and we do not have $4mil cars making 750HP on a 2.4Ltr V-8 reving to 20K RPM, but the idea is the same. If one shop finds the edge, they exploit it wile others catch up. No top shop reviels their secrets.

alex i think what drew is getting at along a few others in this thread is what the basic setup is not cam numbers or anything thats strickly carteks design. dont expect you to realese that info. but inj size, what the A/F was, what intake ya know . we know its ls6 h/c setup with long tubes . theres alot more info on the table
otherwise you might as well just say i have a ws6 that put out 500+ but i cant tell ya whats done to it

Still doesnt really make sense to me how this was done with a GM casting head through a "race" drivetrain (not calling bullshit)

I'll even be first to throw $20 in the pot for the winner to take home just so I can see this soon-to-be classic matchup! Any one else want to pitch in, feel free to post up.
I'll even make a prediction: Pete by a fender to 1/2 car length due to the reliability and consistancy of the auto and a bit more experience with his car.
However.. like I said before.. there will be no loser here- both cars are AWESOME.

Dyno Jet Or Mustang Dyno HEY,
GREAT NUMBERS AND COMBO IS REALLY WORKING. 507 IS BIG RWHP. DYNO JETS ARE ALWAYS GOOD FOR POSTING RECORDS AND BIG NUMBERS. MUSTANG DYNO'S ARE THE TOOL FOR TUNING. IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE DIFFERENCE; TUNE YOUR CAR ON A MUSTANG DYNO WITH A GOOD TUNER AND THEN ROLL IT OVER TO A DYNO JET TO GET THE BR
AGGIN RIGHTS. YOU WILL PROBABLY SEE ANOTHER RWHP GAIN OF ABOUT 8-10%

I have faith in CARTEK's work, and I will do all I can to bring home the number!
As for racing Pete, we we're friends for a long time, so I want this to be a friendly race. Honestly I dont like the fact that I am racing a 3-speed auto, but, what the hell right? I've never tried to cut a good light, so I guess I have to start practicing.

Its hard to say who would win, i think as its true both cars and making big power and both drivers have alot of seat time, and i dont think the auto vs m6 in this case will be a big factor as alex can drive the m6 with the best of them, but i just want to see these 2 cars run at any track other than Atco and without the MAGIC air or track rental situation.
to bad it probably wont happen this coming wed night cus im on vacation and would make the trip to witness this race

With the weather getting warmer it will be hard, but if I ran 10.56 with 477RW, I now have 30 more!
Seriously, that's some kick *** **** he's got going on to be able to tweek that much more power out of rescaling injectors and tuning.
