Same car. Unfortunately the customer stuff comes first. It will be a lot closer to done this year and running next. Between the shop being busy and my real job being insane we did not work on it as much as we wanted over the last year.
It is a 396 with ETP 255 heads, S91 turbo, Glide, all our stuff on a radial tire. we will figure out a class as we go along. We think we can go low 8's with the current setup.

I know in some classes like some 275 classes and real street classes part of the rules are no direct air supplies and the air must orginate from within the engine bay.
It seems like the only class you can run the turbo all the way to the front is the outlaw classes.

The radiator is between the IC and the turbo. Remote pump will be used. we expect a few iterations of this build. This one is to see what we can do that would appeal to the masses. We may do a full race build at a latter date.
The nice thing about this setup is that everything is in the bumper support. A few V Band clamps, and AN fittings will allow us to remove the IC and Rad as a unit.
