Default Shake down video
Thought I would post up this video for you guys, Its a shake down pass from this past weekend. The track was way to cold, so we just left soft and brought the power in after 1/2 track.

Enjoy

The car USED to have a 572CI-N2O BBC in it, but it now has a 362CI-94mm SBC. So as much as I loved the BBC rumble, the turbo makes the power

I have had more BBCs then most over the years, if I wanted to go fast thats what I'd have in something. But a turbo SBC is cool enough

LSx engines are for the lazy man and I'm lazy, man

That's crazy. 20# from 600-end? Damn. How big of a turbo? Any idea on max boost you'll be able to do?

Congrats.

Once again thanks guys.. right now we have no idea where the boost limit will be, only time will tell but as a guess it will be around 30#

Turbo is a single 94
