Prolly get the engine on the dyno before to long, I doubt it will be pumping 1000 right off the bat, probably around 700-800 until I get the tuning right and figure what heads. intake, boost I want to run at..
Still gotta get the 9", the tranny, roll cage, tubular front end, and fuel system all squared away in the TransAm..
Id say October if all goes well..
