Got home from the nostalgia drags late sunday nite in fruitloop it didn't miss a beat and ran 5 low 13sec passes with a best of 13.17 @101.8.I started the new engine saturday at 10 and at 11 on the road by 11 with 2 stops 1 for a spare clutch cable and to fill up with v-power.The car ran awesome right from the start I didn't even touch the the carbs got to the track unloaded the car and raced it!One slight oil leak from a t/c(fixed at the track) I couldn't be happier 230 km round trip 6 13 sec passes drove it to work the last 2 days.Matt I love the engine it's an absolute animal!and dave the "special" gearbox is fabulous.And I've got to say a big thankyou to every body who helped out.
