Default Some long over due updates.

We finally are in the home stretch. Wiring is complete.


A big thank you to our buddy Wayne (Competitive Wiring) for a perfect wiring job and to Joe Oplawski for designing, supplying and supporting all of the electronics.


We took car to the chassis shop last night for some final items. Scheduled to be picked up and off to tuning in 2 weeks.


Enjoy.....

Was tough , 5 hrs at least welding on frame to make it air tight then some more to make the outlet to inter cooler and the inlet from blower . Then we cut off the frame rail plated it and re welded the rail back on

Out of interest....why opt for a single coil and dizzy, as opposed to one coil per cylinder ?
