The funny thing is I bought a new black top for it 7 years ago. The top is always down on the street so I just keep putting it off.

At the track that day I was having fuel issues in top gear so had to shut it down at about half track. Best pass that day was 12.16 @ 85mph. Hahaha! That set up was with just a 150 shot, no blower, stock tiune and shifting at 5800.

The dyno video is from a few months ago, it actually blew the head gasket on that pull (notice the ploom of smoke from the driver's side wheel well). This was with the blower on the car, all was good until we tried to make a pull to 6000. At 5000 rpm it made 505rwhp, @ 8psi and a safe 10:1 AFR. When we tried to pull to 6k, with-in 800 rpm it went from 8psi to 15psi and the AFR went to 14:1 and lifted the head. The blower came on and it ran out of fuel. So I took the blower off.

Here is a pic of the carnage...




I'm working on a new short block with 8:1 compression (10.5:1 now), sumped tank, 1/2 fuel lines and rails, with a A1000 pump. Mega squirted with an external BOV.

We'll see what happens....
