Yup, it's so unlikely for this thing to be done and put up the expected numbers that if it ever does it will cause the Earth to apocalypse itself, fitting right in line with the Mayan Prophecies

Lol racecar lol.

Car is done besides the electrical. Which the shop has a separate guy that does that. He does it on the side of his fulltime gig doing wiring for a shop.

Have a eta date of end of Sep now due to this.

Also swapped out the Rossler Black Box setup for the TCI Controller. I wanted to get away from the Manual shifting crap.

Other then that we are waiting........ After it gets back and tuned/running I'm redoing the air inlet side and putting a omni manual rack in.

Installed the trans controller. The correct drive shaft adapter came in yesterday. Now its pretty much down hill with misc ""little"" stuff. All of the major crap like wiring is done and misc hold ups like the PCM not talking has been fixed.

I am told it should be ready in time for SNL's Track event on April 21st. I don't want the car back till everything is broken in and all bugs worked out. So with that said I hope to fly down in May and drive it home (thats when I have free)

I will prob be limited to about 850-900rwhp due to the fact I don't wanna lift the heads. Once I put some miles on this and prove I get it in the 9's I will go to a bigger motor and the F1X.

This has been a long long build. However this is not your standard off the shelf build either. Everything is 100% brand new. Motor/Trans/Wiring/Procharger etc etc etc. BigTime build.

Everything is coming to a end and I will be coming for those who have talked **** thru out the years.

4 bolt heads can do 1000 rwhp. Keep the timing low and boost up or so I have read.
