Thanks for letting me get the car running for you in a timly manner. Your car is a beast and ready to see it start hurting some feelings.

Build looks great man. Should run like a beast. I'll be in town next week to hang out with the infamous blownbluez06 and attend the TI. Perhaps I'll see you around!

Thanks, Chad. Can't thank you enough. You've been highly praised for years. One of your customers almost swapped motors in my FRC corvette with me 2 years ago and I asked who was doing the R&R. He said you and I told him I didn't even need to talk to you.

It's pretty impressive to see how quickly you can diagnose problems in person and fix them. On top of that, I've got a new boating buddy here in town. Anytime the boys want to be put on some fish in salt water, let's hit it. They are big enough to roll their bikes down the strip at SPI, while we go out at night. I grew up that way and know the bar owners down there. It's not like Port A or Galveston.

Thanks again. Look forward to the shop being finished.

Hey Breecher, I'll be out for TI. I didn't register and didn't ask anybody for a guest pass. We will have to meet up soon though. Just don't bring a car with your favorite edlebrick blower please.

Just thinking about screw blowers almost gives me a stroke. If I never deal with one of those things again it will be too soon. I wasted 3 years trying to get a buddies Kenne Bell kit to work and after re-engineering the whole setup it still didn't work for $hit. Bolted on a YSI and made 915whp with the same engine and zero effort...


Definitely looking forward to the trip down though.

I bet your car makes 850-900, 370 is a great combo.

DOUG @ ECS

Congrats on getting back out there.

Made 878rwhp on Gulf 116 unleaded on a mustang dyno. Didn't make a clean run, clutch kept letting go at 6600-6800rpm. My car makes peek power around 7100-7200 and we still left out 6* of timing we couldn't add due to the clutch. Clutch will be fixed and should crack 950 on the mustang dyno. I've been in boost on the way back and it drives very nice!

Big thanks to Bad Chad. Kurt and Pat G had high praises for you. Looks like it's clutch time! Also thanks to Kurt and Pat G!

Did I miss the post with timeslips? Did you get a printout of the dynosheet?

D98GT

Haha Mark is definitely slipping. He got in around 2am this morning but didn't get any time slips. Disappointing!

winters97gt

No need for a dyno sheet, we couldn't make a clean pull. I'll get one when the clutch is done, Ben.

Turbo-Geist

Just kidding with you Mark. I'm glad to see the progress that you have made and the results look promising so far. You are out driving your car and enjoying it which is more than I can say. I feel like I'll never be done.

Was this a new clutch or had some prior use?
