no shes still alive, shes just sleeping. We got really busy at the shop. Were busier now then we were all of last summer. She will be back up and running again within the next month or so with the new cams and turbine housing. Ill keep everyone updated with any new progress, I promise.

Just buy me a plane ticket and I will finish it for you, seriously. I want this thing making good numbers on the dyno by the end of next week, no excuses.

Just a little something that's been going on with the car. I picked up a good core yesterday and have new parts ordered for it. Once those come in we'll get that short block together and hopefully get back to the car itself!! Race season is coming up fast and this year we should be ready, well, I hope so at least.
Last week there was quite a bit of progress on the car. I was going to finnish it up on Wed. but my Grandfather passed away so I had to fly down to Los Angles (Im in WA). It will be back up and running when I get back on the 26th-27th. Also my new shortblock will be done soon and I should see the new head in about 3-4 weeks.
OK, so. I finished putting the car back together tonight!!!! Yeppie!!! Sounds like a loud ass V8, lol. Idles steady at 1200-1300rpm. I tried to get a video uploaded but couldn't for some reason (problem on my end). Hopefully we can get back to tuning it soon. Ill keep everyone updated.
For sure, ill see if we can get it on there next Monday so you can come down and check it out in your free time.
I am looking forward to your dyno results! Good luck!
BTW, the car is looking great! Also, sorry to hear about losing the slicks on the dyno, I learned the hard way as well.... I run my Falken Azenis 245/40/R17's for dyno-time. Unfortunately, I am notorious for blowing race transmissions on the dyno as well. 3 last year alone! I guess that they don't like 700+TQ @ the wheels under load!
Good luck, and keep safe!
