All that you can see was done by me and the co-owner, motor was done by Ron Kenzor. Its running really good now. I can't say enough for Ron in being this car has been taken to 8k+ several time and it runs like a champ. Sounds perfect up top.

Well all that i have to say is that is a sweet ass setup. Good luck with getting over 7500 and if you do let us know on some numbers.....That pic sould be in your sig just to scare people. Keep up the good work man.

Hell for an F2, 833 horsepower is on the low side,being you haveit pullied for 20 pounds of boost and for the torque to be that low is something that really needs to be looked at, being it has the loose converter I would be willing to lower the torque curve, but 567, that seems real low.

833 isnt too bad for it going through a c4. I figure from talking to other guys that I am losing 18% through the tranny on the Dyno, that would put me @ ~980 hp @ 7500. 980 hp @ 20 psi I think it pretty good for a motor that only makes 350-375 on its own. When we get it dialed in a little closer, and get to 8500 and 30+ psi it should be 1200+ at the crank. This was our first real dyno time where we had all the right parts. We have a nasty cam that we are going to put in the car that should help out also.

Side note, for safety we had the AF @ high 11's with 123 octane fuel. I think we can get it to high 12's safely and see what power it makes then. This is the fun part of racing, tinkering and searching for horsepower.

I think you are making a little more than 980fwhp if you are putting 833 to the wheels. I figure it's more along the lines of around 1015 at the flywheel if you figure you are loosing 18% through the drivetrain.

I agree with the powerglide. That C-4 isn't going to live very long with the power that thing is making/going to make.
