I'll give you the short version, engine is Shelby FE block, Blue Thunder raised port heads (it only needs 29 D. advance at peak power), MSD, Carrillo rods, Victor jr. manifold- highly modified, Ti Valves, 14.7 to 1, 1650 cfm Throttle body, seq. EFI really big roller cam, peak power 7600 peak torque 5500, headers are 2 1/8 primary 3.5 collectors. This engine has a Daley dry sump and Stefs tank and never leaks oil as long as it is running (13" of vacuum) CID = 498 with a Moldex billet crank. Engine by Kinetics in Michigan

The suspension is really where the car shines, the roll centers move together, --------- It took about 5 years of tuning and tweaking to get it to handle like it does now. We went through 15 pairs of springs getting it to this point along with three shock revalvings. I can honestly say the car is really easy to drive now; it never does anything unexpected, unlike past incarnations. --------, rear wheel HP in the 670 range not as much as some but just right for this car. -----r.
HOLY MOL---DEX !!!!

Where else have you taken your car ?

Where else do you plan to take your car ?

Tell us a little about your co-driver.

You should take your car to Run-n-Gun and have some fun there.
