8800 rpms of fun! Jud and the Crew @ SAM are building the motor. We will get some real HP numbers out of this beast with the F2 on SAM's Engine Dyno as well!

We are shooting for May!

Definitely going to stop by the shop soon and talk with the guys. Can't wait to see what she puts up.

Using one of Wade's old Bowtie motors?

Greg has a ton of these motors laying around his shop. In the racecars on our dynojet these motors lay down close to 700 RWHP N/A!!!!

any idea how much weight bias the car has with the pro charger hanging off the front of the engine? was kinda thinking the added noseweight + aeros. Just wondering what kinda stability change the extra weight on the front will change it. By no means am I saying I know what its like to runn 200mph, just asking.
