Built my last one real cherry also. Too bad it was an odd-ball crank and my previous POS converter tickled the thrust a little too much!

made a tick under 700whp on my low boost setup on 16 degrees of timing and very safe a/f.Didnt get to pull it past 7000 as i broke the damm blower belt tensioner,tq numbers suck because even with 6 ******* straps it was KILLING the tires,so much so that they smoked and screamed over the sound of the engine.So i had to roll on the throttle easy to get it to plant.Car is a ******* beast,late next week i will go from the 3.5 pulley to the 3.0 inch pulley and go for 28 plus psi and near or over 800whp.

not really much there yet. No place for a thread like this.

I drove my car today and it did not leak. Maybe I will drive it tomorrow.
