Snow is finally gone. Track opens at the end of May. I won’t make it out till middle of June. My arm is in a sling for 6 weeks from shoulder surgery.
Nice calm spring day for a change, perfect opportunity to take a few pictures
Headers came back from getting coated.
I would like to run it with these headers but it’s probably not gonna happen for a while. Winter has set in and it’s cold.
Safety equipment is one thing not to skimp on.
Not sure if I’ll hit the 150 mph requirement for a chute but should come real close with the new engine.
Adding more horsepower means more updates to the car.
New QA1 shocks and springs.
Upgrade in the front as well. New wilwood disk brakes. Safety wire is complete so it’s time to assemble.
More updates to the car coming up.
how much easier is it to buy a motor plate and cut it to fit? i've done 2 of them in my car from different engines. one was mild steel, other is aluminum. takes very little time to do. can't get much easier then that.
This little 355” W2 engine served me well. It surpassed my expectations. I never thought it would run 9.70 and 137 mph.
This was the last pass with the 355” September 2023.
