Sounds great! <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Is this a JPR block or the MTI 422 block with JPR heads?
thanks!
Chris

That engine should produce some killer numbers -- looking forward to seeing the results.

I like the cars look, not that fond of the wing on top of the spoiler though...but hey to each his own.

Nice car.That setup should fly on the gas.How fast are you looking to go?I would say it should go in the high 130s.Good luck with it.
