So after all the machine work on the heads, final compression is a full point lower and now 11:1. The engine will likely make a good 30HP less and def be slower on motor but the tuning window for a N20 combo will be better. Sometimes you have to take a few steps back to get a few steps ahead!

Next step is engine builder wrap up final bits and off to an engine dyno. It won't be the same dyno as before bc he's now down in Charlotte but ya have to take what you can get.

Almost go time on the updated combo. Alternator moved to the pass side due to new oil filter relocation. Some vac pump lines may need to be revised once installed. Also decided not to dyno and just get to install and testing

Engine is looking good! Should be a beast. What fuel are you going to run this time? Still pump?

Thanks, yes still holding onto 93 but with gas prices these days it feels like I'm buying C116.

Racetrack is the best dyno. Equal playing field that way.

Car is getting wrapped up and will soon be for sale and on sale. Similar combo to original 434 but now 11:1 with much better and stronger rotating assembly + nitrous. Will likely ask ~$30k for complete car (engine/trans/wheels). Be on the lookout for FS ad in the coming weeks.

I appreciate the kind words. It's a great car that works really well on the street but for tuning and maintenance my main guy moved. I'm the person who relies on other ppl and with the time and expense it becomes less fun.

Car getting picked up tomorrow to get finished by another shop. Zero update since drivetrain installed so it's time to make a move.

I'll likely keep until next Spring and get her tuned and tested. I'd think clean cars with proven ET's tend to sell a lil better.

I know a shop and tuner in Toms River that can help you out, if you want to stay with the car.
