Have to give special props to G-Force Motorsports in Pearland and Erik @ HKE. All the guys went above and beyond helping me get this thing going and making sick power with average stuff.

Here is a link to the photo shoot today. Again, big thanks to Jay, Mikey, Robert, Greg, and Jonathan at G-Force, Erik Koenig at HKE and Tricky Ricky at NRC for making the Darts work well.

The car made 556rwhp @ 7500 rpm through a t-400, 5200 PTC 8" converter and a 12-bolt with 4.11 and a 325 drag radial with a pump gas, hydraulic roller setup. What is the most impressive is the power curve.... nice and flat, not peaky at all. Props to everyone who helped make this project a success.

Ernie aka Niceguy

 

I am biased but.... Very Nice Car !!

I will be interested in your times and current raceweight

 

That car is sick, I saw it in person when it was still in the building stages. That hood is awesome!

 

Nice, awesome power

 

Thanks guys. I need to put a good anti-roll bar on the car before we head to the track.

 

Looks a lot like mine!
I like it a lot.
Great power!
Stats on the motor?

 

Yeah I like the white T/A's.... you don't see a whole lot of them. Or atleast I haven't around here. LOL.

The motor is a HKE 429ci, 11.6 comp, Ricky at NRC did the Darts I had, hyd roller, super vic (I ported, may have hurt the numbers...hahahaha) and a 4500 tb. Cam is pretty big, but I cannot remember the numbers... Erik spec'd it especially for this combo.

 

jeeeze. i didnt know it was that serious when i saw you today. lol Sweet ride

 

And you were worried about Slick Rick not gaining the power out of the Darts...lol

 

Looks very nice Ernie! I knew it would peak quite a bit higher with that manifold but it's even higher than I thought. Nice pictures as well and it looks awesome with your hood and cowl.

 

Thanks guys.

Hey 70Hemicuda.... was that you guys in Friendswood today? Sorry bout that, I thought you were egging me on. LOL.

Prostreet.... Ricky always makes rediculous power. It just goes to show, it's not necessarily about the flow numbers. These heads didn't set the world on fire simply because the casting is maxed out, but it still made excellent power.

Erik.... thank you for such great work and such a well thought-out combo. This thing is a beast and I love it. I am already thinking about doing something even nastier. LOL.

 

Looks fkn killer Ernie! Can't wait to see the track numbers she puts out!

 

lol i see what you were talkin about now.

****** killer set up

 

looks awesome!!!

 

Looking good E! Best part of the car is A/C!!!!!


I will post your dyno graph monday!

car looks great.

 

Very nice car man and I also need to thank erik he got my motor done not to long ago...

 

Yea, I was surprised to see AC on the car.
Sure do miss mine at times, but with the 10 point...ain't no putting it back on!
Erik is the definitely the man, makes time for you, and builds things the right way the first go around!

 

Thanks Mikey, that'd be cool.

Thanks to everyone, it's a blast to drive.
