Default new project

well as some of you may know, I sold my teg a couple of weeks ago and bought my new autox/project car this past wed.

Well I was down at S.S. helping out Taylor with Johns motor and we decided it would be a great idea to do a couple base line runs on the new project. I beat John's HF on the dyno so I am very proud of my new baby!

Shit, in an attempt to post the dyno chart I have realized that I can't open the pic from the disk, I'll get it later and post it.

Numbers were approx 58hp and 88tq at the wheels

My old honda VF750S motorcycle had about 80 HP and 55tq.

What are your plans for getting those numbers into the high hundreds (or better)?

strong Walter, but thankfully the HF will be 86'd, so your glory will be short lived
but John the question is when

umm, I'm sure you remember my old car, right?

yeah, I only sold the shell.
same motor, just traded tranny's for one with shorter gearing, fresh rebuild with stronger rods, working on getting a set of coilovers and sway bars, allready have strut tower braces for it, and a few other things in the works.

basically I will have a 600-700 lbs lighter car with much better suspension and a little more power due to new fuel management.
