Its fine. The only bitch would be that the clutch doesnt grab until the VERY top of the pedal. That takes some getting use to but most racers like that so they can shift faster.

Any help would be greatly appreciated because I can't wait to hit the spray and see what happens, but I can't do that until I fix my clutch problem.

Just as a point of reference the mods to date are:

Stock ported heads with 2.05 valves porting by Speedway
Stock Ported intake " " "
Stock ported throttle body " " "
Com Cams Cam
1 7/8 308 Stainless headers designed and built by Speedway
Fuel system designed by Speedway
Programming by Speedway
Custom exhaust by Speedway.

If anyone wants to get a hold of Bill or ask any question his # is 1-800-not-a-sponsor.


You make me fee slow.

The car made 453hp NOT 543 it was an honest mistake and I am very sorry , I was tired when I typed that in and wasn't really paying attention.

Also we are having trouble tuning the car anyone know of any programs available?

With response to the new clutch I am very interested please give me your email address.

Thanx

Nice commercial dude.
