I have to say a big thank you to Livernois Motorsports for stepping up on this build too... we were not sure we would make this race, but they busted a$$ and got the motor together for us. Now the car is tucked neatly into my trailer and ready to leave early in the am for our long trip down to Florida for the race.

Can't wait to turn up the boost on this 106mm Turbo and see how much the Livernois 427 LSX can eat!

Look like it has any potential from the shake down runs?

First Qualifing pass

1.50 60ft (didn't build enought boost on the line)
1/8 5.52 @ 138.8 MPH
1/4 8.33 @ 174.48 MPH

we made this pass on 20psi ... next pass we are going to increase boost a couple of pounds and build some more boost on the line.

If we hook, next pass will be in the 7's!

You can definitely get there, try to stage the same way every time so you can have consistent boost at the hit. The single biggest problem I see is inconsistent staging leaves boost numbers all over the map on the hit. You probably need to be around 6-7# of boost. Best of luck!
