The end of June is D-day as far as the n/a deal is concerned, Craig. Without knowing the weight, ( I would guess between 1800lbs & 1900lbs, &
HP between 250 & 270.....hopefully mid elevens @ 120. I purposely want to stay in superstreet for now...thus, the steel wheels & glass windows
replaced the aluminium & Lexan respectively. Oh yeah, front brakes are refitted.

I can't wait to hear Stan's old engine with a stinger!!
Should sound nice at 8500-9000 RPM!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It will also be great to see an experienced campaigner back on the track! |

Initially I want to keep the RPM down to 7000. Despite this the rest of the engine is designed to sustain 8500 if required. That means valve springs
& rod bolts that are up to the job. Springs are 1.56" diameter Isky Gold stripe, & rod bolts are L19 ARP material. The ehhaust is 2" , with
a short piece of 3" on the end instead of the conventional stinger...it realy sounds something else!
