UPDATE!!!!!! Happy new years to all. Well, where do I start <_<. It's been a long road to get the car finished but I now have it in hand. Picked it up about two months ago with two miles of street and dyno tuning and drove it to Vegas (550 miles round trip) for the break in. The drive up was great but on the way back the car back fired out the exhaust a couple times. Adam pulled the plugs and found every one of them were baked in oil.

John pulled the blower and found the problem. The intakes ports were full of oil. The heads from Dr J's were ported too thin and created pin holes at the top of the intake ports. Every pull on the dyno sucked oil out of the valve cover and into the intake ports. The heads were pulled and sent back to Bryce for repair BUT only came back worse. The welder over heated the heads and warped the valve guides.( My F.....N hero) Stu from Inertia Motorsports sent us a set of his big valve heads for the motor and all is good. I have 1659 miles on the motor and it's running great.

Flashback to the build... We did a small cement fill on the block to keep things in place. My concern was cooling being that I drive the car daily and road race it. I'm happy to report the cooling stays at 188-192 with the help of Evans Coolant.

The car is set at 12lbs and 12 degrees of timing for the street tune and makes 670rwh. We haven't done the race tune with Stu's heads yet but the old heads made 900rwh@19lbs. Cam from Crank This will be putting his fuel system on the car before we add the N20 tune.

Getting the car ready for Bradenton. Went with the 15" setup and worked with AFCO to get the suspension where it needs to be. The last portion is to have AJ get me a 20+ psi tune. Are you going to Florida in February by chance?

Not sure yet Todd. They have a few new races on my side of town ( 1 1/2 mile race, 1/2 mile Drag Race and the www.spectre341.com race is back) I wanna hit and still not sure of the dates. If Bradenton doesn't fall on that date I'll fly out. Congrats on your 15in setup. I went with John to HHP to pick up his 29.5s, those suckers are SWEET!!! Looking forward to you running 9s this year.

Glad to see you back Karlito!

Thanks J. I'll take a look at that. Adam's been playin a lot with the E85 and loves it. He will be tuning my blower only race tune on it.
