Nice to see the old bullet up and running again. What changes did you make?

just a mild refresh. Rings and bearings. Used the same crank rods etc. They did a little "head cleanup" . They did change the valve train thingies rockers i think.

Do you have any idea of what the HP and Tork was when I got the car?

I'm also upgrading the Fast harness and computer since the one in the car is no longer supported by Fast.

I'm still in florida but the car should have some shake down runs by McNasby at atco. If it gets finished in my lifetime lol.

Kaz........we never dyno'd it but I assumed it made close to the numbers you posted based on the mph & ETs. Did you keep the same cam? What rings did you go with?? The ones that were in there were low tension oil rings and stainless top rings set up for Nitrous (which was never installed). Did you go with shaft rockers? Given the offsets we needed to use a 3/8 push rod, the stud rockers were not optimal.....it really needed shaft rockers. Good luck getting it back on the track.
