Default Tommorrow She Goes In The Car

Clock is ticking for Thunder, and we have overcome all hang-ups and obstacles to this point. Hopefully smooth sailing from here.

Firstly, we are running a remote water pump that is mounted in the inner fender of the car.

We plan to make 1300hp with this combo, but Procharger tells us we may be as much as 1600hp if we can keep head gaskets in her.

It is a 359ci Iron Block with the F-2 strapped to it for good luck. That is also a 5/8" motor plate we are using so we can hang the 35lb blower off the front.

Well we had a pretty productive day today. The engine and trans are in the car, and we are working on the fuel system.
