The wishbone on the rearend twisted up like a pretzel. We're going to start leaving on engine only and and ramp the kits in. On the gas it makes about 2500 ft. lbs. of torque out of the hole. The wishbone bent right out of the hole because it stood up on the wheelie bars blowing the tires off and took a hard left. A new beefier one is being sent from Bickel. The car is four linked, the bars are set dead on. Nate I understand on the nitrous, this engine is something new that makes an *** load of torque as well as h.p.

Believe me I KNOW that engine is something else...big cube big bore spacing nitrous motors are beasts...getting them to make the power is the easy part...getting the power to the ground is the hard part with those things.

The outlaw car I give a hand to runs his bars at 9.5 or so inches, but it's a ladder bar SBF turbo car so it's apples to oranges on how they leave.

Bickle = good stuff btw.

I wish Brandon would have left the SBF with twins, with the bruno lenco in this car. Oh well, once all the weak points are found in this setup, it's going to fly.

Ok I will. We went out friday night and broke the rearend on my buddy's zo6 on the first pass so we waited for a trailor and then left. But I will for sure stop by and say whats up.

Sorting out everything with a car like that can take alot of time but when it does get dialed in...hello 4.40's!

Yes sir, man I can't wait. It should easily run some 40's with the power it makes. It makes 1601 h.p. on engine alone.
